About the Role

Remitly is building the Remitly Global Card, a card and wallet that give customers a single, trusted place to hold, spend, and move their money, launching across multiple geographies. As a Senior Full Stack Engineer on the Global Card team, you will own features end to end: the screens customers see, the APIs behind them, and the services that issue cards, hold balances, and move money. You will serve as a key technical voice on a cross-functional team that moves fast and builds with AI in the loop every day, agentic coding tools are part of how we work, not a side experiment, while holding the correctness and trust bar a regulated money product demands. You will report to the Engineering Manager and work in a hybrid capacity from our Arlington, VA office.

You Will

• Set the technical standard: Design and write code that is well-tested, resilient, extensible, and scalable — setting the quality bar for the team and making it easy for others to contribute.
• Lead team projects: Break down complex features into parallel workstreams, provide delivery estimates, and drive execution from design through launch with a high degree of independence.
• Guide engineering excellence: Uphold and exemplify Foundational Excellence standards — including security, reliability, observability, and quality — and proactively identify and resolve risks before they become incidents.
• Mentor and grow the team: Guide and mentor SDE peers through code reviews, design reviews, and retrospectives. Represent Remitly's cultural values and technical competencies in interviews.
• Collaborate cross-functionally: Partner with Product, Design, Analytics, and other engineering teams to translate customer needs into scalable technical solutions and deliver on shared outcomes.
• Communicate with clarity: Effectively articulate complex technical problems, trade-offs, and proposals to both technical and non-technical stakeholders.

You Have

• A degree in Computer Science, Engineering, or a related field, or equivalent practical experience.
• Expertise in one or more backend or full-stack programming languages (e.g., Go, Kotlin, Java, TypeScript) and the ability to adapt to new languages and frameworks as needed.
• Experience designing secure, scalable, and performant software using cloud-based infrastructure solutions (e.g., AWS).
• Experience leading projects at the team level, including breaking features into parallel workstreams, estimating timelines, and coaching other engineers through mentoring, reviews, and retrospectives.
• Demonstrated ability to navigate ambiguity in product requirements, technical design, and cross-team dependencies while driving decisions to resolution.
• Ability to articulate best practices for error handling, observability, and operational excellence.
• 5+ years of software engineering experience in a collaborative, cross-functional team environment.
