Contract Fintech Software Engineer Jobs in Florida

We're looking for a Senior Software Engineer to design, build, and evolve our enterprise data APIs. This role will be actively involved in API architecture and delivery, contribute to a new API catalog and self-service discovery portal, and help drive AI-assisted improvements to how we design, build, and ship APIs.

We're looking for someone who combines strong hands-on engineering with the judgment to architect scalable, secure, well-documented APIs — and who's comfortable coordinating across teams to get there.

Essential Functions:

• Design, build, and maintain APIs using .NET.
• Architect API and database solutions for scalability, reliability, and maintainability.
• Design, optimize and integrate databases - MongoDB, PostgreSQL, MySQL, and OpenSearch - with APIs for efficient data storage, search, and retrieval.
• Use Kafka for event-driven and streaming integration patterns.
• Author and maintain API specifications using OpenAPI, ensuring consistent, well-documented API design standards.
• Contribute to a formal API catalog and registry — a developer portal where teams can discover available API endpoints through natural-language search.
• Help drive AI-assisted improvements to API development and delivery (e.g., AI-assisted code generation, testing, or monitoring).
• Debug and troubleshoot production issues using Grafana and related observability tooling.
• Identify and remediate security vulnerabilities using SonarQube (SAST), DAST tooling, and OWASP Top 10 best practices.
• Participate in requirement analysis, estimation, and deliverable planning in coordination with cross-functional teams.
