  • Develop and integrate RESTful APIs, microservices, databases, messaging systems, and other backend components supporting Binance.US products and internal platforms.

  • Participate in technical design and code reviews, contributing to engineering standards and identifying opportunities to improve system architecture, code quality, and maintainability.

  • Build appropriate automated testing, monitoring, logging, and observability into services to support reliable production operations.

  • Investigate production issues, participate in incident response and root-cause analysis, and implement solutions that improve system reliability and prevent recurrence.

  • Identify performance bottlenecks and technical debt and implement pragmatic improvements that increase scalability, resiliency, developer productivity, and operational efficiency.

Preferred Skills/Experience:
  • Bachelor’s degree in Computer Science, Software Engineering, a related technical discipline, or equivalent practical experience.

  • Typically 5+ years of professional software engineering experience, or approximately 3+ years with an advanced degree.

  • Bilingual in English and Mandarin

  • Strong professional experience developing production backend applications using Java and common Java frameworks such as Spring/Spring Boot.

  • Experience designing and maintaining RESTful APIs, microservices, and distributed systems.

  • Experience with relational and/or NoSQL databases and a strong understanding of data modeling, transactions, and application-level data integrity.

  • Familiarity with cloud infrastructure and modern deployment technologies such as AWS, Docker, Kubernetes, or comparable platforms.

  • Experience with event-driven systems and messaging or streaming technologies such as Kafka or comparable technologies.

  • Strong understanding of software engineering fundamentals, including data structures, algorithms, object-oriented design, concurrency, testing, and common design patterns.

  • Experience building observability into production services and troubleshooting distributed applications using logs, metrics, monitoring, and tracing.

  • Ability to independently manage moderately complex technical projects, make sound engineering tradeoffs, and communicate technical concepts effectively with engineering and cross-functional partners.

  • Experience in cryptocurrency, fintech, payments, trading, or other high-availability financial systems is preferred.
