Accountabilities

• Lead technical architecture and delivery: Own the design, development, and delivery of customer-facing Rust backend services supporting trading, payments, and cryptocurrency experiences, making architectural decisions that prioritize scalability, reliability, and long-term maintainability.

• Drive complex engineering initiatives: Take ambiguous, multi-quarter projects from initial discovery through implementation, launch, and measurement, breaking down complex challenges into manageable workstreams that enable parallel execution.

• Own end-to-end product outcomes: Go beyond backend implementation to understand the broader customer experience, collaborate across frontend and backend systems, and ensure technical solutions address real user needs.

• Shape product strategy and roadmaps: Partner with product leadership to define priorities, influence feature decisions, evaluate trade-offs, and take accountability for the outcomes and performance metrics of delivered solutions.

• Coordinate cross-functional initiatives: Work closely with trading infrastructure, platform engineering, and other product teams to establish technical alignment, manage dependencies, and deliver initiatives that span multiple teams.

• Mentor and develop engineers: Support the growth of mid-level engineers through mentorship, thoughtful code and design reviews, technical documentation, and the development of shared engineering standards.

• Champion AI-assisted engineering: Integrate AI tools into daily development workflows to accelerate coding, explore unfamiliar codebases, validate implementations, and solve problems across technical domains. Help establish effective practices for AI-assisted software development across the team.

• Promote engineering excellence: Maintain high standards for code quality, system design, technical decision-making, and customer experience while balancing rapid delivery with reliability and long-term product quality.

Requirements

• Professional experience: At least 6 years of backend software engineering experience, with substantial hands-on expertise in Rust.

• Rust and distributed systems: Strong knowledge of asynchronous programming, network services, distributed systems, RPC protocols, Kafka, and event-driven architectures.

• Architecture and technical ownership: Proven experience designing and operating production systems, making architectural decisions, understanding their long-term consequences, and evaluating technical trade-offs.

• Product engineering mindset: Experience taking features from problem discovery through implementation, launch, and evaluation of user impact. Ability to connect engineering decisions to customer experience, product metrics, and business outcomes.

• Technical leadership and mentorship: Demonstrated ability to improve team performance through mentoring, design reviews, technical writing, engineering standards, or other initiatives that influence how teams work.

• Cross-functional collaboration: Experience leading projects across multiple teams or organizational boundaries, including managing dependencies, aligning stakeholders, and coordinating delivery.

• AI-first development practices: Meaningful experience using AI tools in software development, including code generation, understanding unfamiliar systems, exploring new technical areas, and validating implementations.

• Ownership and adaptability: A proactive, collaborative approach to problem-solving, with the ability to work independently, take responsibility for end-to-end outcomes, and operate effectively across technical boundaries.

• Commitment to continuous improvement: Openness to evolving engineering practices and a focus on delivering valuable products efficiently rather than relying exclusively on manual coding.

• Preferred qualifications: Experience with React, TypeScript, or other frontend technologies; familiarity with cryptocurrency or blockchain systems; experience scaling consumer-facing products with substantial user bases; or experience introducing AI tools and workflows to engineering teams.

Benefits

• Remote work: Fully remote opportunity for candidates based in Brazil.

• Competitive compensation: Salary details are not specified in the original job description.

• Innovative engineering environment: Work on high-impact financial technology products designed for a global consumer audience.

• Technical autonomy: Influence architectural decisions, shape product direction, and take ownership of complex engineering initiatives.

• AI-driven development: Use modern AI tools and workflows to accelerate engineering, improve productivity, and expand technical capabilities.

• Professional development: Mentor other engineers, strengthen technical leadership skills, and contribute to engineering standards and best practices.

• Global collaboration: Work with distributed, cross-functional teams in an environment that values autonomy, accountability, and open communication.

• Inclusive culture: Join an international workplace that values diverse perspectives and evaluates candidates based on relevant skills, knowledge, and experience.

• Structured assessments: Job-related skills or work-style assessments may be included in the recruitment process, alongside professional experience and interviews.
