We’ve had an exciting opportunity for a talented Senior Developer or Staff Engineer to join our Regulatory Technology (RegTech) team at Sharesies! The team is dedicated to developing technical solutions that enable Sharesies to operate at scale, and ensure compliance with regulatory requirements in an automated way. We create and maintain technical controls that safeguard our customer’s assets and conduct tech-based testing to ensure these controls are effective.
RegTech's influence spans across backend, frontend, and systems infrastructure. Our day-to-day mostly involves developing backend Python code, crafting reusable scripts, and running database queries. We also play a key role in supporting both internal testing routines and external audits of our technical controls.
Collaboration is core to our team. We get involved with nearly every product and project that Sharesies develops, and support Risk & Compliance, Finance, and the Operations teams to achieve compliance excellence! For the Senior / Staff Engineer role we are specifically looking for someone who:
- is comfortable working in Python and with PostgreSQL
- has an excellent eye for detail
- has great communication skills and can help non-technical people to clearly understand exactly what the tech is doing
- is eager to learn - RegTech domain knowledge can be learned on the job, and once learned you'll be a trusted expert that other teams come to for consultation and code review.
- is adaptable to change, and is motivated by our vision and purpose
