Backed by Circle, Coinbase, Dragonfly, Wintermute, and Cumberland, we're a small team solving hard problems at the intersection of crypto and global payments.\nThe Role\n You'll own Codex's financial partner integrations end-to-end - from API contract and webhook design through to reconciliation and production hardening - and build the automation layer that makes our trading and treasury operations increasingly self-running.\nThis is a high-ownership role at the infrastructure layer of the business. You'll be adding new payment rails, eliminating manual operational workflows, and designing systems that handle real money reliably across fiat and crypto rails. You'll work directly with the founders and Engineering & Product Development team, and closely with Compliance, Operations, and Financial Partnerships.\nResponsibilities\nFinancial Partner Integrations\nOwn integrations with banks, payment providers, and liquidity venues end-to-end - from API contract and webhook design through to production hardening and reconciliation\n\nBuild integrations that are robust to vendor reality: incomplete documentation, schema changes without warning, and validation rules that shift post-go-live\n\nBuild messaging / notification systems with signature verification and replay protection; pin schemas against real sandbox behaviour; design for failure at every layer\n\nMaintain and evolve the reconciliation layer across all connected payment rails - fees, settlement windows, and exception handling as first-class concerns\n\nOperational Automation\nIdentify manual workflows in onboarding, compliance, and back-office operations and systematically replace them with product and automation\n\nEnable self-service for internal ops teams and customers, reducing engineering dependency for routine operational tasks\n\nWork closely with Compliance and Operations to understand where the friction is and build the tooling that removes it\n\nTreasury & Liquidity Automation\nDesign and build the automation layer for Codex's trading and treasury operations - automated position management, liquidity routing, and risk controls\n\nDesign for failure: clear handling of automated decision failures, position unwinding, and safe degradation\n\nEngineering Standards\nSet and maintain the engineering standard for how payment integrations are built at Codex - idempotency, audit trails, fail-closed design, exact decimal arithmetic, and deterministic durable orchestration\n\nMentor engineers on the hard parts of money movement systems\n\nContinuously design and build for security, hardening our systems\n\nShip and critically review AI-assisted code with the judgement to identify plausible but incorrect output or output detrimental to a product’s long-term health and sustainability\n\nWhat We're Looking For\n6 to 10 years of backend engineering experience in cross-border payments, stablecoins, FX infrastructure, or crypto custody\n\nProduction experience with both crypto rails (on-chain settlement on major networks like Ethereum, Tron and Solana; bridging major stablecoins; DeFi protocols) and fiat rails (SWIFT, SEPA, local schemes such as FPS or CHATS)\n\nMust-have: Production experience with durable workflow orchestration - Temporal strongly preferred. Includes deterministic replay, safe versioning of live workflows, idempotency keys, and compensation logic\n\nMust-have: Strong TypeScript/Node and Postgres in a money context - fail-closed design, exact decimal arithmetic, append-only audit trails\n\nMust-have: Hands-on third-party API integration experience, including vendors with incomplete documentation, webhook reliability requirements, and schema instability","description_format":"text","description_chars":3969,"description_truncated":false,"requirements":{"experience_years_min":6,"management_years_min":null,"team_size_min":null,"manages_managers":false,"education":null,"security_clearance":false,"languages":[]},"benefits":[],"hiring_locations":[{"name":"Singapore","iso":"SG","kind":"country"}],"hiring_excludes":[],"relocation_offered":false,"industries":["Blockchain & Crypto","Cryptocurrencies","Stablecoins"],"lifecycle":[{"event":"open","at":"2026-09-12T03:27:10Z"}],"liveness":{"score":57,"band":"ok","label":"Likely open","p_open":1,"p_active":0.755,"p_room":0.75,"age_days":30,"expected_fill_days":42,"reasons":["conf:23","win:late"],"computed_at":"2026-10-01T05:45:00Z"},"pay":null,"html_url":"https://alion.io/job/codex-software-engineer","json_url":"https://alion.io/job/codex-software-engineer.json","meta":{"generated_at":"2026-10-02T00:17:28Z","cache_seconds":300,"methodology":"https://alion.io/methodology","terms":"https://alion.io/terms","contact":"https://alion.io/contact","api":"https://alion.io/developers","usage":{"tier":"crawler","counted_by":"address","units_charged":1,"used_today":102,"day_limit":5000,"remaining_today":4898,"minute_limit":60,"resets_at":"2026-10-03T00:00:00Z"}}}
