About the Role
Forward Deployed Engineers are product engineers with a strong operational mindset, owning features across the full lifecycle from design to production without handoffs. You will work on a cloud-native wealth management platform built on Go microservices, a Next.js micro-frontend portal, and a PostgreSQL data layer, with AI-assisted development as a core practice.
Responsibilities
- Design and implement features end-to-end across Go microservices, Next.js portlets, PostgreSQL schema, and OLAP data projections, with full ownership from design through deployment and testing.
- Extend the OLAP read model via CDC-driven data projections, write consuming queries in reporting and search services, and follow safe multi-step schema deployment practices.
- Build and maintain platform integration surfaces, including REST APIs and OpenAPI specifications, for browser, application, and AI consumers.
- Design and implement agentic workflows within the platform, identifying opportunities to automate repeatable financial operations while ensuring secure and auditable API interactions.
- Use AI coding tools responsibly to accelerate development through code generation, testing, and documentation while carefully reviewing all output before deployment.
- Own deployment infrastructure, including build automation, Docker/Podman Compose, Terraform modules, and CI/CD pipelines.
- Drive quality through comprehensive unit, integration, API, end-to-end, and load testing before releasing features.
- Perform code reviews, mentor team members, enforce architectural standards, and maintain platform documentation.
Requirements
- 10+ years of software engineering experience with a strong platform or backend focus.
- Proficiency in Go, including microservice architecture, HTTP middleware, repository patterns, PostgreSQL integration, and distributed systems debugging.
- Strong PostgreSQL experience, including schema design, migrations, logical replication concepts, and query optimization.
- Experience with TypeScript, React, and Next.js, with the ability to independently build and deliver features within a monorepo.
- Experience designing REST APIs, including versioning, pagination, and OpenAPI/Swagger specifications.
- Practical daily use of AI coding assistants such as Claude Code, GitHub Copilot, Cursor, or equivalent.
- Experience with containerization and CI/CD pipelines using Docker or Podman.
- Test-driven mindset with experience across unit, integration, end-to-end, and load testing.
- Experience deploying applications to AWS, Azure, or Google Cloud.
