Description
The Role
We are looking for a Staff Software Engineer to join our growing engineering team and guide the evolution of our backend systems as we scale. For us, this isn’t just about technical performance, but also supporting the internal human processes that will always power much of our product. You will work closely with Product, Operations, Customer Support, Growth and other functions to design and build out a reliable, performant, and secure platform for handling remittances across countries.
Taptap Send is a cross-platform mobile app developed with React Native and TypeScript, which talks to a backend service written in Kotlin and backed by PostgreSQL and redis, all of which runs on AWS and is managed via Terraform. We expect a person in this role to vertically own a solution and work across as much of our platform as possible.
We’re an encouraging environment that values both teamwork and autonomy, and have many exciting upcoming challenges, including: scaling up to handle increased volume and complexity, helping our analysts derive business and product insights to drive growth and retention, building internal tools for our customer support and acquisition efforts, and much more!

- Looking to join a growing team, lead cross-functional projects, and have significant impact on the success of the company
- Comfortable working with partners to articulate technical success criteria for projects and successfully driving them to completion while keeping everybody informed
- Comfortable identifying new technical areas that need more attention, and know how to motivate them to others while incorporating overall priorities
- Great at balancing speed of execution with writing clean, well-designed code
- You believe in evangelizing practical technology to a wider team instead of chasing the new shiny piece of tech in the space
- Looking to be a part of an inclusive culture where everyone brings their whole selves to work
- A clear communicator who believes in communicating kindly but candidly
- Committed to serving our customers first and foremost
Requirements
- 8+ years of full-time software development experience, or equivalent
- Experience working in JVM languages (Java/Kotlin) and familiarity with managing/improving build systems
- Experience working on systems that have real-world performance and reliability constraints
- Experience with query optimization, database tuning, message brokers, and/or caching
Nice to have
- Experience working with Infrastructure as Code technologies like Terraform
- Experience with Data Engineering concepts and workflows
- Former roles as Staff / Principal Engineer in companies our size
