About the role
- Build Mercury’s integration with an FFIEC-approved bank core and the connections to payment networks.
- Design internal APIs that give product teams simple, consistent interfaces to complex external systems.
- Handle the messy realities of enterprise integrations such as retries, failures, format mismatches, and downtime.
- Build data pipelines that keep Mercury's systems in sync with our bank core.
- Own monitoring, alerting, and recovery for our most critical external connections.
- Partner with many other teams at Mercury to define clean boundaries and reliable contracts.
- Help shape the technical architecture of Mercury Bank.
Requirements
- Have direct experience with either a bank core that has achieved FFIEC-compliance (such as FIS) or that of a US-based Global Systemically Important Bank (G-SIB).
- Understand how core banking systems work: accounts, transactions, ledgers, and the data models underneath.
- Be a product-minded engineer who thinks about the developers consuming your APIs, not just the systems you’re connecting to.
- Thrive in environments where you're building something new rather than maintaining something established.
- Be comfortable with our tech stack (Haskell and TypeScript) or ready to learn.
- Have strong opinions about building reliable, maintainable systems.
Benefits
- The total rewards package at Mercury includes base salary, equity, and benefits.
- Our salary and equity ranges are highly competitive within the SaaS and fintech industry and are updated regularly using the most reliable compensation survey data for our industry.
