Job Summary

You own technical delivery end-to-end. You lead the three developers and co-write the Go

backend with the Senior Go Engineer. You personally own the most critical systems — the core

ledger, funds-movement logic, and provider integrations — review every PR, set the

architecture, and own the AWS infrastructure and the security/compliance posture. This is a

hands-on leadership role, not a pure management seat.

What you will own

 The critical financial systems: the double-entry ledger, funds-movement and treasury

logic, and the custody / card-issuer / KYC provider adapters.

 Architecture and standards: the modular-monolith design, the adapter pattern, the

outbox and reconciliation model.

 Every PR: code review, technical risk, and delivery quality.

 AWS infrastructure: ECS Fargate, RDS, ElastiCache, ALB — provisioned with

Terraform.

 Security and compliance posture: PCI DSS controls, PII encryption, key management,

audit logging.

 The team: sprint planning, mentoring, performance, and stakeholder expectations.
