Kyriba Platform Overview

Functional Principles: Kyriba is designed to receive, process, and send files, functioning as a robust batch processing engine. The platform supports user interactions focused on editing basic entities, executing batches, and generating reports.
Technical Principles: The platform operates using a Java Application Server, with a proprietary framework that includes capabilities for identity & access management, data management, task handling, and UI rendering. Connectivity is managed through scripts that orchestrate communication between Kyriba and its customers or their banks.

Strategic Development and Innovation Goals

To enhance our platform and foster innovation, our initiatives include:

Identify Platform-wide Concepts: Recognize and establish prime citizen concepts and shared services such as Task Management, Identity and Access Management, Distributed Audit Trail, Distributed Data Permissions, Referential Data Replication, Global Messaging Broker, Document Store, Search Engine, etc.
Implement & Enforce Concepts: Implement and enforce these concepts within a Microservices Chassis and their respective supporting services to ensure consistency and efficiency across the platform.

Our customers expect consistency of concepts across the whole platform business services. Extrapolating those shared concepts from the monolith to any existing or future components has a significant initial design and implementation complexity.

About the Role

We are looking for a passionate Senior Software Engineer to join the Platform Scalability Engineering Team based in Poland and France. Our team is dedicated to scaling our primarily monolithic application while facilitating the emergence of microservices by addressing cross-cutting concerns. As we modernize, modularize, and expand our distributed system, we seek expertise in Event-Driven Architecture and Domain-Driven Design. In this role, you will lead initiatives to implement these architectural principles across our company. The ideal candidate will adeptly navigate the complexities of our domain while being mindful of the constraints posed by our legacy tech stack, embracing these challenges with enthusiasm and a commitment to driving transformative change.

Responsibilities

Define and lead the implementation of a structured, maintainable, and scalable distributed system, balancing the evolution and decomposition of the existing monolith with the development of new microservices.

Ensure high-quality outcomes through modern modular design and test-driven development.
Take ownership of the performance and reliability of your software.
