• Partner cross-functionally with product, platform, and risk/compliance stakeholders to translate business and regulatory requirements into high-quality technical solutions and delivery plans.
• Provide hands-on leadership across the SDLC: lead architecture/design reviews, refine requirements and acceptance criteria, and guide execution within an Agile/Scrum team.
• Mentor and develop engineers, raising the bar through coaching, code/design reviews, and continuous improvement of modern engineering practices.
• Lead releases and production support, including incident response and operational readiness, while ensuring alignment with security, risk, and internal control expectations.

What You’ll Need to Bring

• 8+ years of backend engineering experience using Java and/or Python, including strong experience with Spring, SQL/NoSQL, and modern distributed systems.
• 2+ years designing and delivering production-grade AI/ML systems, including LLM-based applications and agentic workflows (e.g., stateful agents and memory patterns).
• Strong background in building distributed, transactional systems in fintech or other regulated domains, with deep understanding of data consistency, idempotency, fault tolerance, and scalability.
• Solid understanding of security, observability, and production incident handling.
• Demonstrated ability to lead architectural decisions, define technical standards, and communicate trade-offs to both technical and non-technical stakeholders.
• Experience with event driven architectures (Kafka, async messaging), Cloud infrastructures (AWS, GCP, Azure).
• Familiarity with AI cost control, evaluation, and governance practices.
• Prior experience in trading systems, real‑time financial platforms, or regulated production environments.
