  • Event data stream ingestion which supports near real-time fraud rules setup.
  • Advanced A / B testing and experimentation capabilities for our customers so they can leverage greedy algorithms and fight fraud.

What you’ll do

  • Build decision platform / machine learning solutions to respond to / mitigate business risks in Flex.
  • Design and develop 24 / 7 high-scale APIs and distributed systems. The tech stack will be on AWS. Java would be the language for the existing code base. Java Spring Boot will be the framework.

  • 2+ years of experience with React or React Native.
  • 2+ years of experience with TypeScript.
  • Having experience building high-quality mobile and web UIs to specifications is a must to have.
  • Proficient in Java frameworks and tools used at Flex, including Spring (core / web / boot), Gradle, JUnit, and JVM (memory / performance tuning, GC).
  • Experience with microservice Architecture, RESTful APIs, Message Queues, and scalable architectures.
  • Experience with architectures and tools in React Native and React ecosystems (Hooks, Components, Context, Redux).
  • Experience with AWS (EKS, Aurora RDS, Elasticache, DynamoDB) and containerization tools.
  • Preferred Qualifications

  • Experience working in a risk engineering team and with decision engine / rule engine or fraud / transaction risk systems.
  • Proficient in CI / CD systems (preferably GitHub Actions), git, and automation.
  • Skilled in observability and monitoring tools, such as DataDog, to ensure high availability.
  • Experienced with big data platforms and tooling, including Snowflake.
  • Proficient in Infrastructure as Code, using tools like CDK and Terraform.
  • Skilled at elevating team standards through best practices, and mentoring junior engineers.
  • Excellent written and verbal communicator, with experience in cross-functional collaboration.
  • The salary compensation range for this role will be commensurate with the candidate's experience and Flex's internal leveling guidelines and benchmarks.
