Full-Stack Software Engineer (Backend Oriented)

At Lendbuzz, we believe financial opportunity should be more personalized and fair. We develop innovative technologies that provide underserved and overlooked borrowers with better access to credit. From our employees to our partners and borrowers, we’ve built a company and a culture around a resolute belief in the promise and power of diversity. We value independent and critical thinking.

We're looking for an experienced Software Engineer to join our team. In this role, you'll help design and develop backend systems, implement compelling user experiences, work on system architecture, and build event-driven microservices. You'll also collaborate on API integrations and contribute to products that impact thousands of users. The ideal candidate has 2-3+ years of software development experience and is skilled in PostgreSQL and microservices architecture.

This position primarily emphasizes backend development, comprising approximately 70% of the workload, with the remaining 30% dedicated to frontend tasks.

• Develop solutions across the entire stack, from scalable backend infrastructure to seamless UX experiences.
• Cultivate expertise across technical and business domains, steering clear of professional pigeonholing.
• Collaborate with the engineering team to design architecture and system frameworks for new product initiatives.
• Opportunity to contribute to the development of event-driven microservices.
• Develop internal tools and seamlessly integrate with external APIs.
• Contribute to the expansion, testing, and release of products that positively impact thousands of customers.

• 2-3+ years of software development experience, preferably in product-based companies.
• Strong backend experience with Node.js and Python, with a focus on designing and implementing RESTful APIs.
• Proficient in frontend development using React (or a comparable framework) and TypeScript.
• Experience in microservices-oriented architecture and system design.
• Fluency in relational database technology, such as PostgreSQL.
• Comfortable across all stages of the product life cycle - analysis, design, coding, testing, and troubleshooting.
• Bachelor's degree in Computer Science or a related field.
• Knowledge of testing methodologies and a proven ability to work independently with exceptional interpersonal skills.
