You will be responsible for developing and delivering backend services that support user management functionalities, including authentication, authorization, user profiles, and access controls. As a key member of the backend team, you'll collaborate closely with engineers across the stack to ensure that our APIs are secure, scalable, and maintainable. Your work will play a critical role in enabling smooth and reliable user experiences, enforcing robust identity standards, and supporting the needs of internal and external applications.

  • Participate in code reviews and contribute to the development of technical standards.
What We're Looking For
  • 7+ years of experience in Java (Spring/Spring Boot/Spring Batch) development.
  • Strong experience designing and implementing API services, including optimization for mobile clients—focused on expected response times, resilience to unstable or low-bandwidth connections, and efficient data handling to minimize consumption.
  • Experience with swagger/OpenAPI to facilitate integration with mobile teams.
  • Experience with relational databases (PostgreSQL), NoSQL databases (Redis), and data modeling.
  • Experience with cloud platforms (AWS).
  • Hands-on experience with secure API development using TLS, OAuth2, and enterprise-grade encryption methods
  • Firm grasp of backend design principles, modularity, and maintainability
  • Passion for solving complex problems and building systems that scale
  • Experience with system design and the ability to architect scalable, high-availability solutions.
  • Excellent analytical and problem-solving capabilities.
Nice to Have
  • Previous experience in fintech or financial services
  • Familiarity with AWS components (e.g., ECS, API Gateway, SQS, RDS, CloudWatch)
  • Exposure to containerization and orchestration (Docker, Kubernetes)
  • Understanding of enterprise data pipelines, messaging systems (Kafka, RabbitMQ)
  • CI/CD tooling and DevOps best practices
Why Join Us
  • Be a key player in shaping our core backend systems.
  • Collaborate in a high-performance, remote-friendly environment.
  • Room to innovate, learn, and lead technical initiatives from the ground up.
