đź“‹ Description
- • Design and ship backend services that handle stablecoin issuance, custodial wallet operations, and global asset conversion workflows with high reliability and security.
- • Work within one of four product verticals: Custody, On/Off Ramps, Issuance, or Shared Services, collaborating directly with product managers, compliance teams, and fellow engineers.
- • Ship small, safe production features or quality-of-life improvements within the first 30 days, including adding tests, dashboards, or runbook documentation.
- • Run core services locally and trace requests through logs and metrics to ensure operational understanding and debugging proficiency.
- • Take ownership of a service or capability by 90 days, leading medium-scope projects such as API contract updates, partner integrations, or critical path reliability improvements.
- • Strengthen system reliability through enhanced logging, tracing, alerting, and failure handling mechanisms to meet strict SLOs.
- • Lead cross-service initiatives by 180 days, such as API versioning plans, data model migrations, or compliance-driven workflow changes.
- • Shape technical direction by writing design docs, mentoring engineers, and partnering with product and compliance to make regulation-aware tradeoffs.
- • Design stable, evolvable APIs for custody, transfers, or issuance that avoid breaking downstream clients.
- • Build idempotent job flows for high-throughput asset transfers with strong audit trails and transaction integrity.
- • Harden key operations using hardware-backed isolation and robust key management policies, including Nitro Enclaves for sensitive data.
- • Improve p95 latency through query optimization, caching strategies, or backpressure implementation.
- • Work with a stack including Go and TypeScript/Node.js, with some services in Rust; use gRPC and REST internally, and GraphQL/tRPC at the edge for frontend BFFs.
- • Manage data and async processing using Postgres, Redis, and Kafka; orchestrate workflows with Temporal.
- • Deploy and operate infrastructure on AWS using containers, Kubernetes, and Terraform.
- • Monitor system health and incidents using Datadog, Grafana, Sentry, and Incident.io.
- • Operate in a remote-first, async-by-default environment where initiative, ownership, and clear communication are expected.
- • Contribute to onboarding improvements by updating documentation and PRs that help new engineers ship faster and safer.
- • Participate in a small, cross-functional team where work ships quickly and has direct impact on customers and partners.
- • Ensure all systems comply with financial regulations while maintaining operational integrity under Bastion’s licensed infrastructure.
- • Support E-Verify compliance for employment eligibility verification in the United States.
🎯 Requirements
- • Proficiency in Go and TypeScript/Node.js for backend service development
- • Experience with gRPC, REST, and optionally GraphQL/tRPC for API design
- • Hands-on experience with Postgres, Redis, Kafka, and Temporal for data and workflow management
- • Proven track record of building and operating highly reliable, secure systems in regulated environments
- • Ability to work autonomously in a remote-first, async environment with strong ownership mindset
- • Experience with AWS, Kubernetes, Terraform, and infrastructure-as-code practices
🏖️ Benefits
- • Remote-first work environment with flexibility for US-based employees
- • Opportunity to work on financial infrastructure handling real money with direct customer impact
- • Access to hardware-backed security systems including Nitro Enclaves for sensitive operations
- • Collaborative culture with small cross-functional teams and fast shipping cycles
