Descrição

• Build and own backend services: Design and implement features across both Rails-based services and Go microservices — from API contracts through deployment and monitoring. • Support the migration to microservices: Help decompose the Rails monolith into well-scoped, independently deployable services, contributing to architectural decisions about what to extract and how. • Power internal tooling APIs: Build and maintain the backend APIs that Back Office operators depend on for real-time decisioning — projection management, risk dashboards, alerting, and member operations. • Own technical delivery: Lead the design and implementation of complex features end-to-end, from product requirements through production deployment. • Drive system reliability: Diagnose and resolve performance bottlenecks, optimize database queries, and improve resilience of backend systems under load. • Define technical direction: Propose and drive architectural decisions for your team's services, evaluating tradeoffs and communicating recommendations clearly to engineers and stakeholders. • Mentor and elevate: Provide hands-on mentorship to Software Engineers I, II, and III through code reviews, pairing, and technical guidance. • Improve engineering practices: Advocate for and improve best practices around code quality, testing, observability, and deployment for the team. • Collaborate cross-functionally: Work closely with Product Managers, QA, and other engineering teams to translate operational goals into well-scoped technical solutions. • Participate in on-call rotation: Share responsibility for production incidents, contributing to root cause analysis and long-term reliability improvements.

🎯 Requisitos

• 5–8 years of professional software engineering experience, with meaningful production time in both Ruby on Rails and Go • Proven track record of owning and delivering complex, multi-component features in a team environment • Experience working across monolith-to-microservices migrations, extracting services, managing dual-write patterns, and maintaining backward compatibility • Experience designing and operating distributed systems or event-driven architectures • Strong Rails proficiency — you understand the framework deeply, write idiomatic Ruby, and know when to leverage or work around Rails conventions • Strong Go proficiency — you write idiomatic, well-tested, production-quality Go code • Solid PostgreSQL skills, including schema design, query optimization, and performance tuning • Solid understanding of API design (REST and/or gRPC) and service boundary design • Experience with asynchronous workflows — background job processing (Sidekiq or similar), message queues, or event streaming • Experience with containerization (Docker) and orchestration (Kubernetes) • Familiarity with CI/CD pipelines and deployment automation • Understanding of observability practices — logging, metrics, tracing • Comfortable working autonomously with minimal direction on ambiguous problems • Effective communicator who can articulate technical decisions to both engineers and non-technical stakeholders • Able to context-switch between deep technical work and collaborative planning • Experience working in a fully remote engineering organization
