This position requires strong backend engineering and architectural expertise to translate complex business logic into efficient, production-grade code primarily using Python and C#/.NET Core. The ideal candidate excels at diagnosing and resolving performance bottlenecks and building reliable systems through rigorous code and systems analysis.
Key Responsibilities:
* Architect and implement core platform logic, including high-throughput rebalancing and data processing services, using Python and C#/.NET Core.
* Translate high-level functional requirements into clean, efficient, and testable backend code and microservices.
* Diagnose and resolve complex performance and reliability issues by analyzing system architecture, algorithmic complexity, and code efficiency.
* Collaborate with engineering teams to integrate core services into production-grade microservices and serverless workflows.
* Build and optimize RESTful APIs that serve financial calculations and portfolio analytics.
* Conduct code reviews focusing on architecture, correctness, efficiency, and maintainability.
* Profile and optimize backend services to ensure sub-second response times for compute-intensive operations.
* Write clear technical documentation in Confluence to explain complex system logic to cross-functional teams.
* Implement serverless and scalable solutions using AWS services such as Lambda, Step Functions, and ECS, with a strong preference for Python-based implementations.
* Participate in Agile ceremonies and collaborate with product owners to align technical solutions with business needs.
Requirements for Success:
* Bachelor’s or Master’s degree in Computer Science, Engineering, or a related technical field.
* 5+ years of professional software development experience, with significant experience in both C#/.NET Core and Python.
* 4+ years working with relational databases, preferably SQL Server, including advanced query and schema optimization.
* 4+ years developing cloud-native applications, preferably using AWS.
* Proven experience as a senior backend engineer, driving design and best practices across multiple systems.
* Strong understanding of data structures, algorithms, and computational complexity.
* Familiarity with financial concepts such as rebalancing, asset allocation, and trade execution.
* Proven ability to diagnose and resolve performance issues through code profiling and optimization techniques.
Skills We Are Looking For:
* Backend Engineering & Architecture: C#, .NET Core, Python, serverless architectures, microservices architecture, and system design.
* Problem Diagnosis: Strong ability to identify system bottlenecks, analyze code efficiency, and clearly communicate technical problems.
* Cloud Platforms: Experience with AWS services, including Lambda, ECS, API Gateway, S3, and DynamoDB.
* Database Proficiency: Strong experience with SQL Server optimization and familiarity with NoSQL databases.
