AI Summary

You will design and build high-performance services to authorize, process, and reconcile financial transactions in real time. You will also own critical paths in the issuing flow and drive architectural decisions across engineering teams.

At CloudWalk, we are building the core infrastructure behind our credit card operation — from authorization to clearing — handling real-world financial transactions at scale.

 

This is not a typical backend role.

 

You will work on systems where latency matters, correctness is critical, and failures have real impact.

 

The Role

You will design and build the systems that authorize, process, and reconcile transactions in real time — ensuring performance, correctness, and security at every step.

Our stack is heavily based on Rust, and we operate with full ownership of the issuing flow, including authorization, clearing, and ledgering.

\n


What You'll Do
• Build and operate high-performance services in Rust
• Own critical paths in the issuing flow (authorization, clearing, ledger)
• Design systems for low latency, high reliability, and fault tolerance
• Debug complex production issues involving real money
• Ensure system integrity and correctness across all transaction flows
• Drive architecture decisions across teams


What We're Looking For
• Strong experience with distributed systems
• Solid understanding of concurrency, consistency, and fault tolerance
• Experience with high-reliability systems (fintech, infra, etc) is a plus
• Experience with Rust, or willingness to go deep into it
• Hands-on mindset and strong debugging skills
 
AI as a Multiplier
We use AI as part of how we build.
• Leverage AI tools to accelerate development and debugging
• Improve engineering workflows using automation and agents
• Increase team throughput without compromising quality
 
Security by Design
Security is not a separate layer — it is part of how we build systems.
• Design systems that are secure by default
• Handle sensitive financial data with strict guarantees
• Ensure integrity and correctness across all transaction flows
• Build systems where incorrect behavior is not acceptable


Why This Role
• move real money
• run under strict latency constraints
• must be correct all the time
• operate at real-world scale
 
This is engineering where things actually matter.
