Kraken - Senior Software Engineer - Full-stack
Requirements
• Partner with product managers, designers, and analysts to identify growth opportunities and turn them into high-quality, data-driven engineering solutions. • Implement reusable services and components that power marketing campaigns, onboarding, KYC, and first-funding experiences across web and mobile. • Collaborate on distributed systems that handle large volumes of global traffic while maintaining high performance and reliability. • Participate in design and architecture discussions, balancing user impact, scalability, and maintainability. • Measure, experiment, and iterate — using data and experimentation frameworks to understand what drives user behavior. • Uphold and improve engineering standards, performance, and security practices across the stack. • 5+ years of software engineering experience, including building and maintaining production systems at scale. • Proficiency in building full-stack applications using one of the following: TypeScript, Rust, Go, Python, or Ruby, and React or React Native. • Understanding of distributed systems, performance optimization, debugging, and secure software design. • Familiarity with infrastructure and tooling such as Docker, Kubernetes, Terraform, MySQL/MariaDB, Redis, or GitLab CI/CD. • A product mindset — you care about how your work moves key metrics, not just about the code itself. • Ability to operate autonomously in a globally distributed, remote-first environment. • Experience with A/B testing, analytics instrumentation, or experimentation platforms. • Background in growth engineering, user funnels, lifecycle, or conversion optimization. • Familiarity with data analysis tools or experimentation frameworks. • Unless a specific application deadline is stated in the job posting, applications are accepted on an ongoing basis. • Please note, applicants are permitted to redact or remove information on their resume that identifies age, date of birth, or dates of attendance at or graduation from an educational institution. • We consider qualified applicants with criminal histories for employment on our team, assessing candidates in a manner consistent with the requirements of the San Francisco Fair Chance Ordinance. • Payward is powered by people from around the world and we celebrate the diverse talents, backgrounds, contributions, and unique perspectives that everyone brings to the table. We hire based on merit, seeking out people with the right abilities, knowledge, and skills for the job. We encourage you to apply for roles where you don't fully meet the listed requirements, especially if you're passionate or knowledgeable about crypto. • We may ask candidates to complete job-related skills or work-style assessments as part of our hiring process. These assessments evaluate competencies relevant to the role and are applied consistently across candidates for similar positions. Results are considered alongside experience and interviews, and are not the sole basis for any employment decision.
