Software Engineer - Backend

Ria Money Transfer, a business segment of Euronet Worldwide, Inc. (NASDAQ: EEFT), delivers innovative financial services including fast, secure, and affordable global money transfers to millions of customers along with currency exchange, mobile top-up, bill payment and check cashing services, offering a reliable omnichannel experience. With over 600,000 locations in nearly 200 countries and territories, our purpose remains to open ways for a better everyday life.

We believe we can create a world in which people are empowered to build the life they dream of, no matter who they are or where they are. One customer, one family, one community at a time.

We're rebuilding our backend platform from a legacy monolith to modern Go microservices with Temporal workflow orchestration. This is an incremental migration: both systems run in parallel until we've proven correctness with real traffic. Every dollar must be accounted for and zero-downtime is non‑negotiable.

We're doing this AI‑first. AI is central to how we design, write, test, and migrate code. We use LLMs to analyze legacy codebases, generate migration scaffolding, write contract tests, and validate behavioral equivalence between old and new systems. How effectively you work with AI is as important as how effectively you manually write code.

There are two open positions in our Denver office.

• Build domain services in Go that incrementally replace legacy business logic
• Design Temporal workflows for complex, multi‑step business processes
• Run a strangler‑fig migration: shadow‑traffic test, compare responses, cut over safely
• Build resilience and observability into every service from day one
• Use AI tooling throughout
• Collaborate with product and engineering to define technical strategy

• 3+ years shipping production grade‑software and backend systems. You've seen projects through from concept to launch
• Go experience, or strong backend experience with ability to learn quickly
• Distributed systems expertise: you understand partial failure, timeouts, and resilience patterns
• Infrastructure‑as‑Code tools like Terraform, Helm, or AWS CDK
• Event‑driven architectures and serverless design patterns
• Optimizing large‑scale systems for performance and resilience
• Strong object‑oriented programming foundation & SQL fluency
• An productive AI workflow‑ you already use LLMs daily and have opinions about how to use them
• Strong communication skills‑ ability to work with internal and external stakeholders and cross‑functional teams

• Temporal, Cadence, or similar workflow engines
• Large‑scale system migrations + optimizing for performance and resilience.
• Fintech, payments, or other regulated products/industries
• Building custom AI‑assisted development workflows or tooling
