  • Optimize database performance, improve test coverage, and ensure observability, resilience, and reliability across systems.
  • Actively participate in architectural discussions within the Payments BR tribe.

You'll be great for this role if you:

  • Have strong software engineering expertise, including code design, quality attributes, automated testing, CI/CD, performance optimization, resilience patterns, and distributed systems.
  • Are proficient in at least one of the following languages: Golang or Python (experience with multiple is a plus).
  • Have deep experience with relational databases (especially PostgreSQL) and are comfortable with schema modeling, query optimization, and database tuning.
  • Worked with messaging queues (SQS, RabbitMQ) and stream processing platforms (Kafka).
  • Are comfortable working with MongoDB and Redis. 
  • Are capable of producing clear, structured technical documentation.
  • Thrive in ambiguous environments, are adaptable, and can balance long-term technical improvements with short-term high-priority demands.
  • Have advanced English proficiency and can present and discuss technical topics effectively in public forums or cross-team settings.
