Over the past decade, we've shipped over 150 products for clients that include Visa, American Express, Capital One, WEX, Wells Fargo, Ernst & Young, and TOMS Shoes.

Do you love building and pioneering in the technology space? Do you enjoy solving complex business problems in a fast-paced, collaborative, inclusive, and iterative delivery environment? In this role, you'll be part of a big group of makers, breakers, doers and disruptors, who solve real problems and meet real customer needs.
We are seeking a Software Engineering Leader who is passionate about marrying data with emerging technologies. You’ll have the opportunity to be on the forefront of modernizing a banking core that powers over $60 billion in annual transaction volume for over 100 million active payment cards for one of the largest credit card issuers in the world.
You will work on one of our agile Kunai teams building microservices in Go that form an abstraction layer between core ledger and instrument data and the many issuer services outside of the banking core that need to interact with this data. Your team’s work will facilitate the migration of the core itself from a legacy off-the-shelf system to a bespoke, purpose-built one, and facilitate simpler core migrations and modernizations for decades to come.
The work includes navigating the challenges of streaming, multi-tenancy and building consumable data products in an extremely high volume environment, with the goal of unlocking the power of real-time ledger, transaction and instrument data – with reconciliation and audit trails – for a variety of issuer software systems.
We are looking to hire engineers who are well versed in Go, Java, Python, AWS technologies, and stream processing technologies such as Kafka and Apache Storm.
Qualifications:
- Bachelor’s Degree in Computer Science or equivalent
- 4+ years of experience in software engineering (Internship experience does not apply)
- Experience writing production software in Java/Golang
- Practical experience in streaming technologies (Kafka, Flink, Storm, Kinesis)
- Experience with core AWS Services (Fargate, Lambdas, S3, SNS, SQS, etc.)
- DevOps Tools (Jenkins, Github, Docker, Etc…)
- Ability to work with across multi-disciplinary teams
- Solid written and verbal English skills
Preferred Qualifications:
- Experience with Python development
- Experience with GraphQL
- Data Engineering experience
- Experience with DynamoDB
- Experience building software in the financial services or payments space
At Kunai, we have built deep relationships with our clients. Our bar is high, and our mission is to always exceed our client’s expectations. If you are fanatical about customer success and driven to work on and solve tough technical challenges, we would love to chat with you!
