About the Role

We are seeking an experienced Java API Developer to join our Digital Asset development team. This is a hands-on engineering role responsible for building and operating secure, resilient API services that power institutional digital asset capabilities—spanning digital custody, tokenization enablement, digital transfer agency, and digital cash/settlement workflows. You will work closely with cross-functional teams to build robust, scalable, and secure digital asset products that meet our business and technical requirements.

Responsibilities

Design, develop, and maintain Java backend services and REST APIs that support digital asset product flows (custody, tokenization, TA, digital cash/settlement) and integrate cleanly into the broader platform.
Build API services that participate in the platform’s centralized integration approach—supporting client/app onboarding and app-to-service integrations via an Integration Hub and secure gateways.
Implement APIs that align to enterprise API design/security/publishing requirements, ensuring designs are review-ready and compliant with internal standards (security, documentation, and platform requirements).
Partner with product, architecture, and security stakeholders to implement policy-aware integration patterns.
Contribute to digital asset data patterns, including standardized interfaces and integration points such as Digital Data Interface and Digital Event Stream concepts where applicable for downstream reporting/analytics and operational workflows.
Build and maintain automated tests (unit/integration) and ensure strong quality gates for services supporting regulated digital asset processing.
Support production readiness: observability (logs/metrics), incident triage, performance tuning, and resilience improvements for APIs operating in a regulated, high‑availability environment.
Collaborate across teams to drive clear API contracts and dependencies for integrations to traditional platforms (e.g., custody/cash/fund accounting) as part of a hybrid digital + traditional operating model.

Requirements

Strong experience building Java backend APIs (REST) in financial services, ideally including digital assets or closely related domains (custody, cash, fund services, or regulated platforms).
Hands-on expertise with Spring Boot and common Spring components used for API services (web, security, data access).
Hands-on experience deploying and operating containerized Java microservices on Kubernetes (e.g., AKS), including working knowledge of core concepts such as Deployments, Services, Secrets, resource requests/limits, and basic troubleshooting in clustered environments.
Experience working with relational databases (e.g., Oracle) and ORM/data access patterns.
Proven ability to design and implement API contracts with strong discipline around versioning, backward compatibility, and documentation, aligned to internal API Development Standards.
Strong understanding of security-first API engineering in regulated environments (authentication/authorization patterns, secure integration paths, least privilege mindset).
Experience delivering production-grade services with strong engineering practices (code reviews, automated testing, operational readiness).
Experience working effectively with multi-location engineering teams.
