Job description
We are looking for a Senior Software Engineer to join our Core Engineering group. The group is responsible for the real-time, low-latency infrastructure that powers our fraud decisions and external APIs.
Our systems process billions of requests every day, ensuring high availability, security, and performance at global scale.
In this role, youll work on core backend components such as our decision engine, ingestion and enrichment pipelines, schema management systems, and self-serve API platform. The software you build will power critical business decisions and directly serve some of the worlds largest merchants.
This is a high-impact, high-ownership position for an engineer who thrives on solving complex distributed systems challenges, cares deeply about production-grade quality, and wants to shape the foundation of our decisioning platform.
What you'll be doing:
Design, build, and scale backend systems that power our real-time decisioning and APIs.
Own projects end-to-end - from design and implementation to production rollout and monitoring.
Ensure systems are low-latency, fault-tolerant, and high-throughput across distributed environments.
Enhance observability, reliability, and developer experience through strong operational and tooling practices.
Collaborate with Product, analysts, data scientists, and infrastructure teams to drive innovation across Forters decision ecosystem.
Participate in technical discussions and customer interactions, providing expertise and clear communication when supporting enterprise integrations.
