Software Engineer

Keellight is a regional bank with over 200 branches and 400 employees across Mexico City.

The position

Nobody expects you to know every framework. We want someone who writes clear code, tests it and asks good questions. We need another Software Engineer who likes owning a feature from the design doc all the way to the on-call rotation. The work is on site and cannot be done remotely.

In this role you will

• Maintain REST and gRPC APIs used by internal teams and outside partners.
• Keep dependencies current and patch findings from Dependabot or Snyk.
• Migrate older modules out of the monolith where it makes sense.
• Improve the reliability of existing code instead of just adding features on top of it.
• Break down product requirements into technical tasks and rough estimates.
• Contribute to postmortems and follow through on the action items.
• Write unit and integration tests and keep the CI pipeline green.
• Work with product managers and designers to scope features and cut what isn't needed.

Minimum qualifications

• 3+ years of professional software development experience.
• Willing to join the on-call rotation once ramped up.
• Comfortable working in Linux and on the command line.
• Working knowledge of testing practices: unit, integration and contract tests.
• Familiarity with Git, pull request workflows and CI tools like GitHub Actions, Jenkins or CircleCI.

Preferred qualifications

• Contributions to open source projects.
• Background in payments, fintech or another regulated domain.
• Infrastructure as code with Terraform.
• Prior work at an early-stage startup.

Rate: MXN 54,000-MXN 70,000 per month

• Training budget.
