The posting

WHY SOCURE?

Socure is building the identity trust infrastructure for the digital economy — verifying 100% of good identities in real time and stopping fraud before it starts. The mission is big, the problems are complex, and the impact is felt by businesses, governments, and millions of people every day.

We hire people who want that level of responsibility. People who move fast, think critically, act like owners, and care deeply about solving customer problems with precision. If you want predictability or narrow scope, this won’t be your place. If you want to help build the future of identity with a team that holds a high bar for itself — keep reading.

Socure is looking for a Software Engineer II – Backend to join our global engineering team.

You’ll design, build, and operate scalable backend services that power our identity verification and fraud prevention products. You’ll work closely with Engineering, Product, Infrastructure, and Data Science/ML teams and take ownership of software from design through production.

WHAT YOU’LL DO

- Design, build, test, and operate backend services, APIs, and microservices.

- Develop reliable, secure, and maintainable production software.

- Work on distributed systems, asynchronous workflows, messaging, and event-driven architectures.

- Contribute to technical design and make thoughtful engineering trade-offs.

- Troubleshoot production issues and improve system reliability and observability.

- Participate in code reviews, automated testing, CI/CD, and engineering best practices.

- Collaborate with globally distributed, cross-functional teams to solve customer and business problems.

WHAT WE’RE LOOKING FOR

- Practical software engineering experience building backend applications or services.

- Strong programming skills in Go, Java, Python, or a comparable backend language.

- Good understanding of data structures, algorithms, APIs, microservices, and distributed systems fundamentals.

- Experience working with SQL and/or NoSQL databases.

- Understanding of asynchronous processing, messaging, retries, fault tolerance, and service-to-service communication.

- Familiarity with cloud-native technologies such as AWS, Docker, Kubernetes, Kafka or equivalent technologies.

- Understanding of source control, automated testing, CI/CD, and modern software development practices.

- Ability to troubleshoot technical problems methodically and take ownership of solutions through production.

- Clear communication skills and the ability to collaborate effectively across teams.

Why it works

3×

more interviews than doing it yourself with ChatGPT.

ChatGPT writes a CV and never learns what happened to it. We see every reply. For each CV we know:

  • How it was written, and how the review scored it
  • When we applied, and how long after the posting went up
  • Which posting, which company, which city
  • Who got the interview, and who heard nothing

That is how we know which CVs get called.
