Full Job Posting

Responsibilities

  • Design, implement, and maintain backend services Kharon's flagship client-facing application — spanning Kotlin, Java, Go, and Python
  • Develop and ship new APIs and features across the full development lifecycle, from requirements clarification through pull request, QA feedback, and production release
  • Troubleshoot and resolve bugs by investigating logs, reproducing issues locally, and delivering clean, targeted fixes
  • Write automated tests and contribute to a culture of code quality — producing pull requests that are readable, well-scoped, and maintainable
  • Collaborate cross-functionally with product owners, frontend engineers, QA, and architects — serving as a clear communicator who can explain service design, API contracts, and architectural decisions to a range of audiences
  • Contribute to infrastructure responsibilities including CI/CD pipelines (GitHub Actions), Kubernetes cluster deployments across dev/QA/stage/production environments, and core AWS services (Lambda, RDS, EKS, S3)
  • Participate in two-week agile sprints using Jira, with flexibility to support production hotfixes and larger feature releases as needed
  • Support and mentor mid-level engineers on the team over time

Qualifications

  • 5+ years of backend-focused software engineering experience
  • Strong proficiency in at least one JVM language — Java or Kotlin strongly preferred; Spring Boot and/or Micronaut experience a plus
  • Familiarity with microservices architecture and the ability to reason across service boundaries and understand downstream dependencies
  • Experience with Vue.js or openness to contributing to a Vue-based frontend when needed
  • Solid understanding of relational and graph databases; PostgreSQL and/or Neo4j experience a plus
  • Working knowledge of AWS fundamentals (Lambda, EC2, S3) and container orchestration (Kubernetes)
  • Experience with CI/CD workflows, preferably GitHub Actions
  • A testing mindset — comfortable writing unit and integration tests and responding to QA feedback loops
  • Strong communicator who asks clarifying questions, validates requirements before building, and can partner effectively with product and non-engineering stakeholders
  • Comfortable using AI coding tools as a productivity accelerator — with the judgment to review, scope, and own every line of code you ship
  • Bonus: Experience in fintech, risk, sanctions, or financial crime compliance domains

About Kharon

  • Fully sponsored medical, dental, and vision insurances
  • FSA program for both medical and dependent care
  • Long term disability
  • 401k + Roth with matching and immediate vesting
