About the Company
We’re building a next-generation financial platform that combines modern fintech infrastructure with advanced AI-driven automation. Our system powers global digital banking experiences: wallets, payments, reconciliation, onboarding, transaction histories, notifications, and real-time financial intelligence.
Our engineering culture values ownership, deep technical expertise, and speed enabled by AI tooling.
Role Summary
We are seeking a very senior Backend Engineer with expert-level experience in Node.js, TypeScript, and serverless AWS architecture. You’ll own core backend systems that power our neobank: payments, wallets, secure authentication, event-driven pipelines, and streaming infrastructures.
You’ll work at the intersection of fintech, blockchain, event streaming, and AI, designing mission-critical systems with strong security, compliance, and performance guarantees.
This role is ideal for engineers who thrive in fast-moving, high-ownership environments and love pushing what’s possible with AI-assisted development.
Key Responsibilities
• 10+ years of software engineering experience, with a strong backend record.
• Deep expertise in Node.js + TypeScript building distributed systems or financial platforms.
• Strong hands-on experience with serverless AWS (Lambda, API Gateway, DynamoDB, Kinesis, EventBridge, Cognito).
• Experience designing secure, compliant financial flows (payments, wallets, KYC, auth, etc.).
• Solid understanding of real-time protocols: WebSockets, SSE.
• Familiarity with stablecoins, blockchain payment flows, or modern payments APIs.
• Able to contribute to React Native when needed (not the main focus).
• Comfortable in an engineering environment where AI is actively used every day.
• Passion for pushing the frontier of AI-driven development, not just adapting to it.
Requirements

• Familiarity with stablecoins, blockchain transaction flows, or modern payment APIs.
Bonus
