Work type: remote

Location: United States

Type: Full-time

Summary

This role is designed for a seasoned Mid-to-Senior level Backend Engineer (5-7+ years) who wants to be a "founding" member of a specialized Reporting & Statements team. You are a strong candidate if you have a deep interest in financial infrastructure and possess a "service stewardship" mindset—meaning you care as much about the long-term reliability and observability of your code as you do about the initial build. Working at this regulated crypto platform offers the stability of a federally chartered bank with the remote flexibility of a modern tech firm. A standout feature of this position is the "founding engineer" status within the sub-team, giving you significant influence over architectural decisions and API design standards from the ground up. While fully remote in the US, the company emphasizes culture through sponsored quarterly in-person collaboration days. **You might be a good fit if you:** * Are proficient in **Go or Python** and have extensive experience building RESTful APIs or GraphQL endpoints. * Have handled data-intensive systems involving PostgreSQL or BigQuery and understand the nuances of data consistency and query optimization. * Enjoy collaborating across functions, specifically partnering with data engineers to define schemas and SLAs. * Are comfortable operating in a cloud-native environment (GCP) and managing the end-to-end lifecycle of production services.

Job Description

At Anchorage Digital, we are building the world’s most advanced digital asset platform for institutions to participate in crypto.

Founded in 2017, Anchorage Digital is a regulated crypto platform that provides institutions with integrated financial services and infrastructure solutions. With the first federally chartered crypto bank in the US, Anchorage Digital offers institutions an unparalleled combination of secure custody, regulatory compliance, product breadth, and client service. We’re looking to diversify our team with people who are humble, creative, and eager to learn.

We are a remote friendly, global team, but provide the option of working in-office in New York City, Sioux Falls, Porto, Lisbon, and Singapore. For our colleagues not located near our beautiful offices, we encourage and sponsor quarterly in-person collaboration days to work together and further deepen our Village.

Join us as a founding engineer on our Reporting & Statements team. You'll design the systems that power every financial report and statement we deliver from monthly reports to daily statements to custom client requests. We're building automated frameworks that guarantee accuracy and consistency for every number we send to clients..

## Technical Skills:

• Design and implement RESTful APIs and GraphQL endpoints that serve financial data to internal product teams and external clients


• Build service integration layer between backend services and the data platform, ensuring reliable data flow and error handling

• Shape architectural decisions collaboratively for the API and service delivery infrastructure as a founding engineer on the team


• Balance competing requirements of accuracy, performance, and scalability while delivering reporting products on tight client deadlines

• Collaborate closely with Data Engineers on data contracts and SLAs to ensure seamless integration between the data engine and API layer


• Partner with Product teams to design APIs that enable self-service access to financial data

• Champion API design best practices and service reliability standards in partnership with teams across the engineering organization


• Contribute to technical roadmap planning and help build a supportive, collaborative engineering culture for the new team

• 5-7+ years building backend systems: You have experience collaborating on designing and shipping production APIs and services that handle complex business logic at scale


• Service stewardship mindset: You've been responsible for services end-to-end in production environments and understand what it takes to build reliable, observable, maintainable systems


• API design experience: You're proficient in Go or Python with hands-on experience building RESTful APIs, and you understand how to design interfaces that balance flexibility with performance


• Data-intensive systems: You've built backend services that interact with databases (PostgreSQL, BigQuery, or similar) and understand query optimization, connection pooling, and data consistency patterns


• Cloud-native development: You have experience deploying and operating services on cloud platforms (preferably GCP), including containerization, monitoring, and incident response

• GraphQL experience: You've built GraphQL APIs and understand the tradeoffs between GraphQL and REST for different use cases


• Financial domain knowledge: You've worked in fintech, banking, or similar environments where data accuracy and auditability are critical requirements


• Data platform collaboration: You've worked closely with data engineering teams and understand modern data stack patterns (data warehouses, orchestration, CDC, etc.)
