DriveWealth is a global B2B financial technology organization dedicated to democratizing access to financial independence around the world. Our mission is realized through an API-based platform, empowering our partners to offer seamless investing and trading experiences to clients worldwide, all from their mobile devices.

The API Team is responsible for all external interactions with DriveWealth trading platform. As a Senior Software Development Engineer, API, you will learn from and contribute to a modern Java code base that is highly concurrent and in many places follows reactive style programming. Our jobs run in the cloud using many advanced AWS services. We still use some of the typical enterprise messaging services (Kafka/ActiveMQ), and caching technologies (Redis), etc.

You will work collaboratively with our engineers in the New York office and business teams to build next-generation features and enhancements to our API platform to help our clients build innovative investing solutions at scale. Your responsibilities will include hands-on software development, architecting and designing new systems, monitoring and maintaining existing systems, and collaborating with internal stakeholders. You'll need to deeply understand real-world money movement workflows in the banking industry and translate processes to automate manual operational tasks.

We're looking for someone with at least 6+ years of experience in back-end software development using OOP/Functional principles, particularly in Java. You should have experience designing and integrating RESTful APIs, working with technologies like Spring Boot, OpenAPI, message queuing frameworks, distributed caching, and cloud-based microservices environments (preferably AWS). Knowledge of compute/container platforms such as AWS EC2 and Kubernetes is highly preferred.

At DriveWealth, we value diversity and inclusion, celebrating the unique differences of our employees as we scale and grow together. We're guided by operating principles grounded in accountability, teamwork, integrity, and solutions built to scale.
