About the job


We're building a consumer finance app for emerging markets, in partnership with extremely large distribution partners. We are creating a joint virtual banking and cryptocurrency wallet that allows users all over the world to move seamlessly within our financial ecosystem.


Why now: stablecoins are changing cross-border payments. There is an opportunity to rebuild financial infrastructure for the 3 billion people who need better financial rails.


We're a small, senior-only team moving fast. We are well-funded with the ability to offer high cash compensation, based in SF, and led by proven founders with successful exits. Every hire shapes our product direction while we make Day 1 impact on global financial inclusion.

The Role


We're seeking a Staff Backend Engineer to lead our core product development. Our backend serves a REST API that powers our iOS, Android, and Web frontends. You will integrate with cryptocurrency wallet and banking service providers, among other services for auth, ledger, payment rails, etc.


This is a financial services application with significant complexity handling real money at scale, internationally.


Our backend is a Python (FastAPI) monolith supported by Postgres and Redis on AWS. We are open to Rust and/or Go for any services that need to be broken out for performance.


This is a critically important role on our team. You’ll be working directly with the technical founders to set standards and build a highly performant, reliable, and secure app from the ground up. This role may evolve into a backend or general engineering lead as we scale.


Requirements


  • 5+ years building and shipping web applications in Python, Go, or Rust
  • Experience generally across the backend: working with Postgres, Redis, AWS, etc.
Bonuses


You might be an especially good fit if you have:


  • Experience in financial technology
  • Full-stack engineering skillset and ability to flex across other parts of the stack
