About the Job
Implementation Backend Engineer: HybridOur direct client, a fast-growing FinTech firm in New York City, is looking for multiple Backend Implementation Engineers. We are seeking a highly motivated and versatile Engineer to lead integrations with back-end APIs.
This role involves working directly with clients to ensure seamless integration of our technology into their systems.
You will be responsible for designing, piloting, and scaling integration solutions, building tools to debug and enhance customer implementations, and driving technical leadership throughout the integration lifecycle.For this role, 3-4 days onsite work in the NYC office is required, the base salary is in the $150-180K range, DOE. Key Responsibilities:Design & Architect External Integration Solutions: Partner with clients to design and architect scalable API integration solutions with client systems.
Develop workflows that ensure seamless communication between external stakeholders' infrastructure and the company’s platform, focusing on security, scalability, and performance.Lead Client Integration Sessions: Serve as the technical lead in client-facing integration scoping meetings.
Provide architectural guidance, conduct technical discovery, and ensure that all client requirements are understood and incorporated into the integration design.Internally Focused Tool Development: Build and maintain internal tools, scripts, and frameworks to streamline the integration process.
These tools will enhance efficiency and reduce manual effort by providing clean testing data and functionality to improve overall project timelines, supporting both development and production environments.Hands-on Debugging & Technical Troubleshooting: Act as the primary technical point of contact for debugging and resolving integration issues in client environments.
Work directly with customers to diagnose and fix issues that arise during the integration and deployment phases, ensuring smooth production rollouts.Custom Solution Development: Design tailored solutions for clients based on specific requirements and system constraints.
Translate high-level business needs into detailed technical designs that align with client infrastructure and ensure successful integration.Internal Coding Standards & Automation: Establish and maintain best coding practices for the development of internal integration tools.
Automate repetitive tasks and optimize tool performance to accelerate integration timelines and reduce operational friction.Collaborate with Core Engineering Teams: Work closely with internal engineering teams to design, iterate, and refine the APIs and data models that underpin client integrations based on feedback and technical insights from client-facing projects.
Ensure APIs are robust, well-documented, and evolve the product by ensuring real-world customer requirements and challenges are reflected in future platform architecture.Monitoring & Optimization: Implement and monitor real-time integration performance for external clients.
Identify bottlenecks, optimize data flows, and ensure systems can scale according to the growing needs of customers.Support Security & Compliance: Ensure that all externally facing integration solutions adhere to the highest security standards, including encryption and access control, and comply with industry-specific regulations.
Address any potential vulnerabilities or compliance gaps proactively.Required Skills & Experience:API Expertise: 5-10 years of experience in data integration with strong focus on Python API implementation (preferably RESTful APIs and FastAPI).Data Model Mastery: Proven expertise in managing data models and system workflows in the alternative investment ecosystem, working with fund administrators, custodians, and other service providers.Cloud Architecture Experience: Experience developing within modern cloud-based architectures (e.g.
AWS, Azure, GCP)Technical Leadership: A strong track record of leading complex integration projects from start to finish, including requirements gathering, design, and implementation.Problem Solving: Strong problem-solving skills with the ability to debug complex integration issues and provide scalable, reliable solutions.Project Management: Ability to manage multiple projects simultaneously, ensuring technical excellence and meeting client deadlines.Job ID: 5403
