We are looking for a Senior Backend Engineer to contribute to our new product efforts and help us take ideas to market, specifically in fintech and payments. Our stack is based on Django, Angular, Postgres, and AWS. Expertise in Django is a big plus but familiarity with other modern technologies is a solid substitute. If you have a strong background in other frameworks, we are open to that. Planning, shipping, and learning are the most important traits we are looking for.

  • Manage code reviews through Pull Requests and make sure we're moving fast while maintaining Unit Tests and quality.
  • Help migrate some of the modules into independent micro-services.
  • Work on product features that affect 10s of thousands of customers.

Qualifications

  • 5+ years of professional experience working on web applications using modern software engineering processes.
  • Proficient in Python and Django.
  • Debugging complex database performance issues.
  • You think critically about your work and ask questions in order to improve the product, not only on its technical implementation but also on how well it’s serving the users' needs.
  • You have built performant and scalable backends, made pragmatic tradeoffs, and can point to your prior work.
  • You have strong communication skills and are able to explain complex technical topics to the entire team in a clear and concise way.
  • When things inevitably break, you eagerly jump in to diagnose and fix the core issues.
  • Experience working in an early-stage startup is a huge plus.
  • Fluent in both written and spoken English.

Requirements

  • Product sense.
  • Debugging complex performance issues.
  • AWS.
  • Jenkins.

Benefits

  • This is a full-time position.
  • You will get paid as a contractor (since the company is based in the US).
  • English spoken and written are required.
