Partner with Product to shape a roadmap that balances commercial, operational, and technical requirements.

Own High‑Stakes Financial Infrastructure

Oversee systems for money movement, ledgers, reconciliation, and banking integrations.

Ensure correctness, reliability, and safety in systems handling customer funds.

Maintain strong operational practices : monitoring, alerting, runbooks, and incident response.

Drive Technical Excellence

Contribute directly to backend and distributed systems codebases.

Review designs, unblock complex technical issues, and drive high‑quality architecture.

Uphold correctness‑first design, data integrity, and risk‑aware decision‑making.

Requirements

You are a deeply senior engineer and hands‑on leader with :

Technical Expertise

Strong experience with distributed systems (concurrency, ordering, idempotency, state transitions).

Deep backend engineering fundamentals; proficiency in a modern language (Python is a plus).

Experience with high‑reliability or correctness‑critical systems, ideally involving transaction flows or data integrity.

(Preferred) Exposure to financial infrastructure : ACH, payouts, FX, banking rails, ledgering, and reconciliation.

Understanding of ACID, transactional boundaries, schema evolution, and consistency models.

Leadership Strengths

Ability to earn trust and influence very senior ICs.

Calm, clear decision‑making under pressure (including high‑severity incidents).

Concise communication around risk, trade‑offs, and architectural reasoning.

Comfort operating in complex, constraint‑heavy environments (commercial, regulatory, operational).
