Job description

About AiPrise

AiPrise is a YC-backed, Series A company building the global compliance infrastructure for financial services. We help banks, fintechs, cross-border payment providers, stablecoin and crypto companies, and marketplaces gain a 360° view of every business they onboard, anywhere in the world.

Through a single integration, we connect 800+ data sources and 80+ verification partners across 200+ countries, powering KYB, KYC, AML, sanctions screening, and ongoing monitoring for companies like Meta, Airwallex, Fireblocks, and Bridge.

Our AI Agents help compliance teams do more with less, resolving more cases, catching more fraud, and scaling operations without scaling headcount.

We're ~60 people, Series A funded, and obsessed with a single problem: making compliance feel simple for the teams who live in it every day.

Borders shouldn't be blockers. Compliance is hard. AiPrise shouldn't be.

The Role

We are seeking a Senior Software Engineer to join our core engineering team and drive the development of mission-critical features that power compliance for the world's leading financial institutions. You will own significant portions of our platform, from architecting scalable backend systems to designing elegant APIs that serve millions of verification requests. This role offers high autonomy, direct impact on product direction, and the opportunity to mentor engineers while working with cutting-edge technologies including AI-powered fraud detection, distributed systems, and real-time data orchestration. If you thrive in fast-paced environments where your code directly influences how companies fight fraud and ensure compliance globally, this is the role for you.

What You’ll Do

Technical Ownership & Delivery

Design, build, and maintain core platform features including data orchestration, verification workflows, and API infrastructure that serves customers across 100+ countries

Own end-to-end delivery of complex features from technical design through deployment, monitoring, and iteration based on customer feedback

Write clean, well-tested, and performant code with strong attention to system reliability, scalability, and security - critical in our regulated compliance environment

Drive architectural decisions for your domain, balancing technical excellence with pragmatic delivery to support rapid product iteration

Collaborate closely with product managers and designers to translate customer needs and compliance requirements into technical solutions

Leadership & Collaboration

Mentor and pair with engineers across the team, conducting thoughtful code reviews and sharing knowledge to elevate engineering standards

Participate in on-call rotation to ensure platform reliability and lead incident response when systems need attention

Contribute to engineering culture through process improvements, technical documentation, and advocating for engineering best practices

Partner with cross-functional teams including customer success, sales, and operations to understand customer pain points and deliver solutions that delight users

Influence technical roadmap and architecture decisions through RFCs, design reviews, and strategic technical discussions

Innovation & Technical Excellence

Stay current with emerging technologies and bring innovative approaches to fraud detection, data processing, and compliance automation

Contribute to our AI-powered features including document intelligence, website analysis, and anomaly detection systems

Identify and drive technical improvements to reduce technical debt, improve system performance, and enhance developer productivity

Requirements

Bachelor's degree in Computer Science, Engineering, a related technical field, or equivalent practical experience

5+ years of professional software engineering experience building production systems

Strong programming skills in modern languages (we primarily use Python, Go, and TypeScript/Node.js)

Deep understanding of backend systems, distributed architectures, API design, and database optimization (SQL and NoSQL)

Experience building scalable systems that handle high throughput and maintain reliability under load

Track record of owning complex technical projects from conception to successful delivery

Strong communication skills with ability to explain technical concepts to both technical and non-technical stakeholders

Experience mentoring junior engineers and contributing to engineering culture

Bonus Points

Experience in fintech, compliance, identity verification, or fraud detection domains

Familiarity with AI/ML systems, document processing, or computer vision applications

Experience with cloud platforms (AWS, GCP, or Azure) and modern infrastructure tools (Docker, Kubernetes, Terraform)

Contributions to open source projects or technical communities

Experience working in high-growth startup environments with rapidly evolving requirements

Knowledge of global compliance regulations (KYC, KYB, AML, GDPR)

Why AiPrise

Direct Impact: Your code will process millions of verifications and help prevent fraud for leading financial institutions globally

Technical Challenges: Work on complex problems at the intersection of compliance, AI, fraud detection, and distributed systems

Ownership & Autonomy: Lead major technical initiatives with significant influence over architecture and product direction

Learning & Growth: Work alongside talented engineers, access to cutting-edge technologies, and clear career progression to Staff Engineer and beyond
