Backend Software Engineer, Golang/Python

Your role at Exness:

You will join our Payments as a Golang/Python Engineer. You will aim to extend, optimize, and support the production of the existing software solutions, ensuring we capture as much value from the market as possible. You will research and innovate new ideas in highly reliable, low-latency, and high-load computing in financial markets. 

Our usual stack looks like this:

• Core services written in Go and Python
• Everything is deployed to Kubernetes
• Our data is mostly in PostgreSQL
• We use a lot of Kafka
• But also a bit of Clickhouse, MongoDB
• Microservices, REST/JSON API, gRPC, large databases and complex business logic inside.

This position is to be located on-site at our offices in Cyprus (hybrid approach).

You will:

• Develop, test and maintain microservices in Go
• Participate in architectural discussions with architects and software engineers
• Review other engineers' code.
• Take part in integration testing
• Create integrations with other teams’ services
• Help other teams to integrate with our services
• Lead the entire application/service development life cycle right from concept stage to delivery and post-launch support.
• Convey effectively all task progress, evaluations, suggestions, and schedules along with technical and process issues.

What we expect from you:

• Middle+ Golang knowledge - Golang is a simple language with complex concepts hidden from the developer. We’d like you to understand its principles described here - https://go-proverbs.github.io/
• At least 4-5 years of experience in software development
• Commercial experience with Python
• Middle+ SQL expertise - being able to EXPLAIN and ANALYZE is important.
• Kubernetes is everywhere, we would like you to have a good grasp of the way it works and how to use it properly.
• Experience with Git is a must.
• Good understanding of Kafka, its basic concepts and how to use it.
• Previous experience with REST API and microservice architecture.
• We would really like you to be a problem-solver, not a 'Jira-ticket-solver' - you take the problem, comprehend it and solve it. The solution might require some interactions with other teams, DBAs, Security, infrastructure engineers etc. You’ll get all the help you need, no worries.
• We’re responsible for our work, so estimate fairly, develop thoughtfully, test thoroughly, deploy cautiously.
• Ability to use advanced English for different work and business purposes

Nice to have:

• Familiarity with Kafka Connect
• Experience with Clickhouse, MongoDB
• Experience with Temporal
