Job Description:

At Remitly, we believe everyone deserves the freedom to access, move, and manage their money wherever life takes them. Since 2011, we've tirelessly delivered on our promise to customers sending money globally, providing secure, simple, and reliable ways to manage their money, ensuring true peace of mind. Whether it's supporting loved ones back home, growing a business across continents, or pursuing new opportunities abroad, we're not just here to move money- we're here to move our global customers forward.
We're looking for builders, reimaginers, and global thinkers who want to work at the intersection of technology, trust, and transformation. If that's you and you're ready to do the most meaningful work of your career-we invite you to join over 2,800 passionate Remitlians worldwide who are united by our vision to transform lives with trusted financial services that transcend borders.

About the Role:

The Transaction Integrity Product squad protects both our customers and Remitly from financial harm. We build systems that detect and stop scam activity before it impacts the people who depend on us most. We also stop fraud before it undermines the integrity of our platform. This allows customers to send money safely, simply, and without disruption. Our work sits at the intersection of customer experience and trust-every decision we make balances stopping bad actors with keeping Remitly accessible and easy to use for the millions of people who depend on it.

As a Software Development Engineer II on the team, you'll design and build backend services and customer experiences that power real-time fraud and scam prevention across Remitly's remittance flows. You'll own meaningful features end-to-end. You'll collaborate closely with product and program managers, fraud analysts, and partner engineering teams. You'll contribute to a platform that directly protects customers and supports Remitly's reputation as the most trusted way to send money globally.

You will report to one of our engineering managers and will be required to work 3+ days out of our Seattle, WA HQ.

You Will

• Design and implement scalable, high-quality backend services and APIs that support real-time fraud detection and risk decisioning
• Build and ship features and customer experiences that improve our ability to identify and stop fraud and scams early in the customer journey, reducing friction for legitimate customers
• Own features end-to-end: translate requirements into technical designs, break work into tasks, estimate effort, and deliver with quality-including testing, monitoring, and documentation
• Improve the reliability, observability, and maintainability of risk systems to ensure consistent and explainable outcomes for customers and internal teams
• Provide constructive feedback in code and design reviews, upholding a high bar for correctness, security, and maintainability
• Monitor production systems, respond to incidents, and drive improvements that enhance system resilience and customer outcomes
• Partner with product and program managers, fraud analysts, and partner engineering teams to translate fraud and scam prevention requirements into reliable technical solutions
• Support the growth of peers through pairing and code reviews when the opportunity arises

You Have

• A degree in computer science, engineering, or a related field, or equivalent experience
• 4+ years of professional software development experience building and maintaining production backend systems
• Strong programming skills in Go, Kotlin, or similar languages (Java, Python, C++) with a demonstrated ability to learn new technologies
• Proficiency in designing and building distributed systems on cloud platforms, particularly AWS
• Experience optimizing how systems are deployed, tested, logged, and monitored; familiarity with CI/CD practices and infrastructure tooling
• Ability to handle ambiguity in feature requirements and business expectations, and to independently drive features from design through delivery
• Proven track record of writing clean, well-tested, modular code and providing thorough code reviews
• Strong collaboration skills-comfortable partnering with cross-functional stakeholders including product managers, data scientists, and fraud analysts to understand requirements and propose solutions
• Experience translating emerging AI capabilities into practical, high-impact solutions
