Working with technologies like Ruby on Rails and Go, you will design, build, and optimize scalable systems for high-volume financial transactions. You’ll collaborate closely with cross-functional teams to deliver reliable, secure, and performant solutions, while ensuring smooth integration with multiple critical partners.

- Write well-tested code using RSpec, with a strong emphasis on security, performance, and resilience (we have 95% code coverage)
- Make practical decisions with good judgment when faced with design constraints and trade-offs
- Participate in code reviews, providing constructive feedback through pull requests to ensure code quality, best practices and limit breaking changes
- Mentor and support team members, fostering a collaborative and inclusive environment that promotes learning and growth
- Participate in on-call rotations to support and maintain production systems, including incident response and resolution
- Demonstrated ability to become an expert in a specific technical and business domain, with proven experience in independently mastering complex systems or technologies. We value a track record of deep specialization and problem-solving in any field
- Strong command of Ruby and Rails (understanding the boundaries between them)
- Ability and willingness to write detailed technical documentation for a wide variety of audiences
- Experience working in a large codebase and communicating about code
- Ability to make practical decisions with good judgment when faced with design constraints
- Commitment to writing well-tested code that considers security, performance, and resilience
- Respect and support for team members of all levels and backgrounds, with openness to both teaching and learning

- Prior exposure to financial data integrity concepts: double-entry ledger or general ledger design, transaction lifecycle management, variance tracking and exception reporting
- A working knowledge of GO
- Experience in modularizing monolithic applications, and when to move towards “services” vs “microservices”
- Familiarity with design patterns that support long-term sustainability
