What & Why:
Our client is a leading global fintech company seeking a Senior Software Development Engineer to own the technical direction of core transaction monitoring systems, including suspicious activity detection and customer risk rating pipelines. This is an engineering domain where correctness carries legal consequences, a missed report or false negative has real regulatory impact. The role works closely with Compliance, Risk Analytics, and Product to translate regulatory requirements into scalable, observable backend systems, owning services end-to-end from architecture through on-call. This role is well-suited to an engineer who takes pride in building systems where quality directly matters, and who is comfortable leading technical discussions and mentoring others in a high-stakes, compliance-driven environment.

Who:
Our client is a leading digital financial services company focused on making international money transfers faster, more affordable, and more transparent for customers worldwide. With a presence across more than 170 countries, they have built a reputation for combining rigorous compliance standards with customer-first product design at global scale. The company recently opened a Vancouver office located in Metrotown, offering a collaborative hybrid work environment with three days per week in office.

You:
You will bring the following education, skills and experience to the role:

7+ years of backend services development with demonstrated domain ownership
Strong distributed systems fundamentals, including designing for scale, failure, and eventual consistency
Proficiency in Go, Kotlin, or Java (or another backend language with willingness to ramp up on Kotlin)
Data fluency, including complex SQL and experience working with data pipelines and analytics teams

Compensation:
This role pays between $85-105 per hour
