• Design and implement scalable backend and data solutions that process millions of daily transactions, ensuring reliable cash application, settlement, and financial reporting.
• Build intuitive, self-service tools that enable Finance teams to configure product-specific rules and workflows independently.
• Develop modular platform components that encode core enterprise processes, improving consistency, maintainability, and reuse across the organization.
• Collaborate closely with Engineering, Finance, and Product stakeholders to design systems that are auditable, secure, and highly resilient.

What You Bring

• Deep expertise in either backend engineering or data engineering, with the ability and willingness to work effectively across both areas.
• Experience working with large-scale transactional or financial data platforms in production environments.
• Strong advantage: hands-on experience with batch or streaming frameworks such as Spark, Flink, or Beam (preferably with Scala), and/or experience building scalable backend services in Java.
• Solid foundation in system design, data structures, algorithms, and distributed system fundamentals.
• Familiarity with cloud-native development and deployment; experience with Google Cloud Platform is a plus.
• Ability to think critically about system architecture and design for scalability, maintainability, and auditability.
• Excellent communication skills and proven experience collaborating with Engineering, Finance, and Product teams.
• Comfort working in fast-moving, ambiguous environments with a focus on usability, configurability, and long-term sustainability.
• Strong commitment to code quality, automated testing, documentation, and continuous improvement.
