Job Description
Overview
: Credit Platform Engineering builds shared services, APIs, and developer tooling that help engineering teams deliver value safely and quickly. This role leans toward software development (high-quality APIs, automation, and tools), with working knowledge of cloud, DevOps, and SRE practices. ## What you’ll do - Design and build internal and customer-facing APIs and services that are secure, reliable, and well-documented. - Create developer tools and platform services that improve developer experience (DX): templates, CLIs, libraries, service scaffolding, automation. - Apply engineering best practices: test-driven development, code review, CI, and safe deployment patterns. - Engineer for operability: structured logging, metrics/tracing, health endpoints, and actionable alerts. - Collaborate with platform and product teams to standardize patterns (authn/authz, secrets, configuration, resilience, versioning). - Participate in incident response and reliability improvements; help teams reduce defects and operational risk. ## What we’re looking for ### Required - Strong software engineering experience delivering production services/APIs (design, implementation, testing, and operations). - Proficiency in at least one backend language (e.g., Java, Go, C#, Python, TypeScript) and modern API practices. - Experience with API design and lifecycle management (versioning, backward compatibility, pagination, error modeling). - Strong testing discipline (unit/component/integration tests) and comfort refactoring safely. - Working knowledge of cloud-native delivery: containers, CI/CD, and operating services in a cloud environment. - Ability to debug across layers (application, runtime, platform) using logs/metrics/traces. ### Preferred - Experience building and maintaining platform APIs (internal “product” mindset: usability, docs, support, adoption). - Experience with event-driven and asynchronous patterns (queues, pub/sub), reliability, and idempotency. - Security experience: OAuth/OIDC concepts, least privilege, threat modeling, input validation. - Experience improving reliability using SLOs and reducing toil through automation. - Experience with Kubernetes and infrastructure as code in partnership with platform/SRE teams. ## How we work - Build small, ship often: incremental changes with clear acceptance criteria and fast feedback. - Quality is non-negotiable: tests, clear design, observability, and secure defaults. - Operate what we build: ownership includes production support, documentation, and continuous improvement. ## What success looks like - Platform APIs and tools are adopted because they are reliable, well-documented, and easy to integrate. - Developers spend less time on undifferentiated work (setup, pipeline wiring, troubleshooting) and more time delivering features. - Incidents decrease due to better operability, safer releases, and consistent engineering standards.
Skills Required :
Python, Go, REST APIs, Cloud Infrastructure, Docker 1. Python A candidate is expected to use Python to build and ship production-grade services or internal tools - for example, writing a CLI tool that scaffolds new microservices with standard configuration, logging, and health endpoints baked in, including unit and integration tests. 2. Go A candidate is expected to write idiomatic Go to build high-performance, reliable backend APIs or platform services - for example, implementing a REST API with structured logging, metrics endpoints, and proper error modeling that is deployed via CI/CD to a cloud environment. 3. REST APIs A candidate is expected to design and deliver well-structured REST APIs following lifecycle management best practices - for example, designing a versioned internal API with consistent error modeling, pagination, backward-compatible changes, and clear documentation so consuming teams can integrate with minimal friction. 4. Cloud Infrastructure A candidate is expected to have working knowledge of running services in a cloud environment - for example, deploying a containerized service using CI/CD pipelines, configuring health checks and structured logging, and understanding how the runtime environment (networking, secrets, config) affects their application. 5. Docker A candidate is expected to containerize services using Docker as part of a standard delivery workflow - for example, writing a production-ready Dockerfile for a backend API, integrating it into a CI pipeline, and ensuring the container behaves consistently across dev and production environments.
Skills Preferred :
GCP, Kubernetes, Agile Software Development, Endpoint Security 1. GCP A candidate is expected to have hands-on experience deploying and operating services on Google Cloud Platform - for example, using GCP-native services (e.g., Cloud Run, Pub/Sub, Secret Manager) to build a reliable, observable platform service with appropriate IAM and least-privilege access controls. 2. Kubernetes: A candidate is expected to deploy and manage workloads in Kubernetes in partnership with platform and SRE teams - for example, authoring Kubernetes manifests or Helm charts for a service, configuring liveness/readiness probes, and troubleshooting pod-level issues using logs and metrics. 3. Agile Software Development: A candidate is expected to work in short, iterative cycles with clear acceptance criteria and fast feedback - for example, breaking a platform API feature into small incremental pull requests, participating in code review, and shipping working software frequently rather than in large batches. 4. Endpoint Security A candidate is expected to apply security best practices at the API and service level - for example, implementing OAuth/OIDC-based authentication on an API, enforcing least-privilege access, validating and sanitizing all inputs, and participating in threat modeling for a new service to identify and mitigate risks before release.
