About the role
Responsibilities:
- You'll work across the systems that make Skydo run, from the payments and settlement core that actually moves money to the customer-facing application exporters use every day to the ops and compliance tooling that makes everything tick.
- Build and ship backend systems across payments, our customer-facing platform, or ops and compliance tooling wherever the sharpest problems are.
- Work on flows where correctness and reliability genuinely matter.
- Partner closely with senior engineers, product, and leadership to shape what gets built, not just how.
- Move fast without losing sight of the fact that real businesses and real money are on the other end.
Requirements:
- 4+ years building production backend systems at meaningful scale.
- Strong in Java/Kotlin and Spring Boot.
- Hands-on with AWS infrastructure, you've run services in production, not just written code someone else deploys.
- Deep understanding of reliability in money-critical systems: failure modes, idempotency, recovery.
- Real experience with distributed locking and the consistency problems that come with concurrent money movement.
- A track record of shipping end to end and staying accountable in production.
- Bonus: fintech, payments, or any domain where correctness is non-negotiable.
