Implement authentication and security solutions including passkeys, device biometrics, OAuth, WebAuthn, and session management to protect client assets and data
Design and consume REST APIs; build robust, well-documented service interfaces for internal and external consumption
Participate in architecture decisions shaping system scalability, security, fault tolerance, and user trust across the platform
Define and deploy cloud infrastructure using AWS CDK, applying infrastructure-as-code practices for reproducible, auditable, and version-controlled deployments
Champion engineering best practices including code reviews, automated testing, CI/CD pipelines, observability, and comprehensive documentation
Mentor junior and mid-level engineers; contribute to technical hiring and building the engineering team culture

Proven ability to work effectively with AI coding agents and to critically review the code and changes they produce
Self‑starter with strong ownership mentality who thrives in ambiguous, fast‑paced environments; comfortable proposing solutions and driving them to completion
Preferences
The following are not required, but candidates with any of these will stand out:
Familiarity with AWS CDK specifically
Experience with fintech or payments APIs (e.g., Stripe, Plaid, Marqeta, Column, Lithic, Unit) or banking integration (ACH, card networks, ledger systems)
Familiarity with crypto wallets, key management, smart contracts (Solana or EVM chains), or DEX aggregators
Fluency in native iOS (Swift) and/or native Android (Kotlin) development
Proficiency in Cantonese and/or Mandarin
Hiring Process
Candidates progress through the following stages and must pass each one to advance to the next:
Programming screening
— an unproctored multiple-choice test covering core programming fundamentals
Technical interviews
— two live interviews (no coding) of similar content, each conducted by a different interviewer, building on the candidate's screening answers and covering software engineering fundamentals and problem-solving
