We create value focused on our core values; we work tirelessly to ensure that Sunbit becomes available to everyone, everywhere About the Team You will be joining the Compliance Engineering Team, the technological "Guardians" of the company. We don’t just write code; we build the safety net that allows our business to run fast and launch new products safely. In a high-growth Fintech environment, our team ensures that every loan, transaction, and interaction meets the strictest regulatory standards - automatically and seamlessly. We operate as a hybrid team, blending robust Backend engineering with advanced Data Engineering to solve complex business challenges. Our Tech Stack We treat compliance as a first-class engineering product. Our stack is modern, diverse, and built for scale: Core: Kotlin, Python, and Java. Data & Scale: Snowflake, Airflow, Spark, and DBT for high-volume data processing. Infrastructure: Event-driven architecture (Kafka), AWS, and K8s. Frontend: Internal tools built with React (Micro-frontends). What You’ll Do Sunbit is looking for a Senior Software Engineer to join our Compliance & Legal Squad. This position offers a unique opportunity to work at the intersection of technology, compliance, and data. As a Senior Engineer, you will take ownership of ensuring the integrity of critical processes - such as Due Diligence, Legal Automation, and more. You will be responsible for the full lifecycle of these systems, driving both architectural modernization and day-to-day stability. Your work will range from designing new automated capabilities to rigorously refactoring existing flows, deep-diving into complex logic to optimize alerts, and ensuring our production environment remains robust at scale. We are looking for someone who enjoys diversity, wants to understand the "business behind the code," and is eager to replace manual operations with sophisticated, event-driven automation. Key Responsibilities: Design & Build: Lead the design and implementation of backend systems and scalable microservices that ensure regulatory compliance and legal process automation (e.g., IVV, Due Diligence). Data Integrity & Scale: Work with large datasets and oversee complex data pipelines ensuring absolute data integrity across critical financial systems. Drive Modernization: Lead engineering modernization efforts, including significant refactoring of legacy code and migration to a modern, distributed architecture to improve system resilience. Automation & Integration: Replace manual operations with event-driven automation (Kafka) and maintain robust integrations with third-party providers (Verdata, Salesforce, and more) to support business scale. Cross-Functional Collaboration: Collaborate closely with Legal, Compliance, and engineering teams to translate complex regulatory requirements into accurate, high-quality technical solutions. Requirements 5+ years of experience in Software Development (Backend focused). Strong proficiency in Java or Kotlin in production environments. System Design: Experience in building scalable APIs, working with microservices, and understanding distributed systems. Experience with AWS and cloud-based infrastructure. Ownership Mindset: we don’t just resolve tickets; we look at the bigger picture, understand the business logic, and take responsibility for the quality of our delivery. Excellent problem-solving and system design skills. B.Sc. in Computer Science or equivalent practical experience. Fluent in English, both written and spoken. Advantage: Strong proficiency in SQL and experience working with relational databases. Python. Experience with Snowflake, Spark, or DBT. Experience with Event-Driven Architecture and Kafka. Background in Fintech, Banking, or regulatory environments. Recruitment Fraud Disclaimer We’ve been made aware of fraudsters impersonating Sunbit employees during the hiring process.
