Explore Rain’s enterprise payments infrastructure for stablecoin-powered cards and global money movement. Fast settlement, scalable API, and trusted performance. Backed by Norwest.
About the role
Lead, grow, and develop a high-performing team of 4–6 senior backend and platform engineers, owning hiring, coaching, performance management, and career development. Own the architecture and technical direction of Rain’s core services, driving decisions across service boundaries, data modeling, build-vs.-buy, scalability, and technical debt.
What they're looking for
- Currently and demonstrably hands-on. You have written or reviewed meaningful production code within the last year and you want a role where that continues
- Deep experience with distributed backend systems at scale: data modeling, consistency and idempotency, queues and event-driven design, and the operational reality of running all of it
- A track record of raising an engineering bar. You can point to specific practices you introduced and the measurable change in quality, velocity, or reliability that followed
- Real reliability ownership — you have carried a pager, run incident command during a serious outage, and built the follow-through that kept it from recurring
- Experience in payments, fintech, banking infrastructure, or another domain where money, ledgers, or regulatory obligations made correctness non-negotiable
- Strong hiring and coaching instincts, with managers or senior engineers you have developed who would work for you again
