Casca is replacing decades-old legacy systems with AI-native technology that automates 90% of the manual work humans once had to do in banking.
Requirements
- 5+ years of software development experience, particularly in scalable backend and infrastructure systems (e.g., Rust, Node.js, Python, or Go), and modern deployment technologies like Docker, Kubernetes, and Helm.
- Strong experience with major cloud platforms (AWS, Azure, GCP) and their managed services for compute, storage, and networking.
- Proficiency in infrastructure as code tools (e.g., AWS CDK, Terraform, Pulumi) and CI/CD automation (e.g., GitHub Actions, Jenkins).
- Experience with building observability tooling including metrics collection, distributed tracing, logging systems, and monitoring dashboards.
- Experience with enterprise software features like permissions (RBAC), analytics, audit logs, notifications, self-serve onboarding, and provisioning.
- Proven ability to mentor and guide technical teams.
- Stay ahead of emerging technologies in cloud-native, fintech, and AI infrastructure to drive innovation in our platform.
Responsibilities
- Architect and enhance platform features including authentication, auditability, and enterprise integrations across the banking ecosystem.
- Build and maintain high-performance, developer-friendly infrastructure using containerization (Docker), orchestration (Kubernetes, Helm), and cloud-native services across AWS, Azure, and GCP.
- Improve reliability, scalability, and compliance for platform services like permissions management, admin reporting, and customizations
- Develop and optimize infrastructure as code (AWS CDK, Terraform) and CI/CD pipelines to automate deployments, ensuring high availability, disaster recovery, and efficient resource utilization.
- Collaborate with AI engineers to benchmark & integrate models into the core platform.
- Mentor junior engineers, conduct code reviews, and contribute to best practices for building systems that handle high-volume, mission-critical financial workflows.
- Create and maintain comprehensive documentation for architecture, runbooks, and operational procedures.
Other
- Thrive on cross-functional collaboration with engineering, product, and compliance teams to deliver velocity, reliability, and compliance in a competitive fintech landscape.
- Bachelor's degree in Computer Science, Engineering, or a related field (or equivalent experience)
- We're seeking those who are aligned to and able to commit to that expectation which includes 5 days per week in our San Francisco Office.
- While schedules can vary by role/team, many weeks will demand extra focus, flexibility and time particularly during major launches and high impact sprints.
