Web3 Jobs & Crypto Jobs Where crypto teams hire. Where builders get found.

## Key Areas of Responsibilities ### Technical ownership & architecture - **Define and own the fraud engineering architecture** — Design the end-to-end technical vision for fraud detection, prevention, and response at BVNK: real-time fraud decision services, event enrichment pipelines, device and behavioural signal collection, fraud engine integration, and case management connectors. ### Team growth & engineering culture - **Build and mentor the fraud engineering squad** — Tailor work assignments to individual growth, run group knowledge-sharing sessions, give regular and specific feedback. - **Set and maintain engineering standards** — Establish coding standards, review practices, testing strategy, and observability standards. - **Track and reduce technical debt proactively** — Keep tech debt visible and balanced against delivery every planning cycle. - **Promote healthy engineering culture** — Foster collaboration, continuous learning, and professional growth. Encourage open communication, mutual respect, and a shared sense of ownership. ### Cross-domain collaboration & delivery - **Lead cross-domain technical alignment** — Facilitate collaboration with Payments Orchestration, Digital Assets, Onboarding (customer risk assessment and fraud due diligence), Fiat, FinCrime, and Back Office. Define clear interaction modes per BVNK's domain interaction model. - **Drive the architecture reviews** — Author and shepherd RFCs and technical briefs. - **Build fraud reporting and metrics pipelines** — Oversee the engineering of automated data pipelines from the fraud engine into Snowflake and QuickSight, enabling real-time fraud dashboards, KPI tracking and regulatory reporting. ### Operational excellence - **Own production reliability for fraud services** — Ensure all fraud services have adequate observability (Grafana, Prometheus), runbooks, and alerting. Participate in on-call rotations, lead incident response for fraud-critical services, and drive root-cause analysis and prevention. - **Ship with quality** — Contribute hands-on engineering while balancing technical direction, team growth, and coordination.

## What we need from you - 7+ years of backend engineering experience in Java or Kotlin with Spring Boot, with at least 2 years in a Tech Lead or senior technical leadership role. - Strong distributed systems expertise — deep experience building microservices with event-driven architectures (Kafka, SQS), relational databases (MySQL/PostgreSQL on Aurora), and caching (Redis). You can design systems that are reliable, scalable, and observable by default. - Experience with fraud detection, financial crime, or risk systems — you've built or led teams building fraud engines, rule engines, risk scoring systems, or transaction monitoring platforms. You understand concepts like velocity checks, device fingerprinting, behavioural analytics, risk tiering, and pre-auth/post-auth decision flows. - Architectural leadership — proven ability to define technical vision, write ADRs, lead architecture reviews, and make high-stakes design decisions across multiple services and domains. Solid grasp of domain-driven design, hexagonal architecture, and clean service boundaries. - Real-time decision systems experience — you've designed services that make low-latency, high-stakes decisions on live transaction flows where correctness and performance are non-negotiable. - Cross-domain collaboration skills — you work effectively across multiple engineering teams, product managers, compliance teams, and fraud analysts. You can facilitate technical alignment across domains without creating bottlenecks. - Excellent communication — you proactively surface risks and deviations, facilitate across stakeholders, give continuous feedback, and can present technical strategy to engineering leadership with confidence.
