Senior Software Engineer

Work to Be Done

First 30 days: Learn the rails, ship confidently

• Ramp on service architecture, CI/CD, observability, and engineering conventions
• Ship a small feature slice or quality-of-life improvement in one service
• Add tests, dashboards, or runbook notes for the areas you touch
• Build relationships with your vertical team and cross-functional partners

By 90 days: Own a service surface and raise the bar

• Take ownership of a service or capability across our product, with an eye toward production-readiness
• Lead a medium-scope project: updating an API contract, implementing a partner integration, or improving robustness of a critical path
• Strengthen reliability with better logging, tracing, alerts, and failure handling

By 180 days: Drive cross-service impact

• Lead a cross-service initiative, such as an API versioning plan, a data model migration, or a compliance-driven workflow change
• Shape technical direction with design docs and mentoring
• Partner with product and compliance to make pragmatic, regulation-aware tradeoffs

Challenges You Might Tackle

• Designing stable, evolvable APIs for custody, transfers, or issuance without breaking downstream clients
• Building idempotent job flows for high-throughput transfers with strong audit trails
• Hardening key operations using hardware-backed isolation and robust key policies
• Improving p95 latency through query tuning, caching, or backpressure strategies
• Navigating tradeoffs between product velocity and compliance requirements in a regulated environment
• Building services that integrate with banking partners and crypto infrastructure providers

Your Team's Typical Stack

• Languages: Go and TypeScript/Node.js; some services in Rust as needed
• Service patterns: gRPC and REST; GraphQL/tRPC at the edge for frontend BFFs
• Data and async processing: Postgres, Redis, Kafka
• Workflow Management: Temporal
• Infra: AWS, containers, Kubernetes, Terraform; hardware-backed key isolation with Nitro Enclaves for sensitive operations
• Observability and ops: Datadog, Grafana, Sentry, Incident.io
