About AiPrise

AiPrise is a global compliance orchestration platform helping fintechs, marketplaces, and payment companies verify and onboard customers worldwide. We integrate with 80+ identity and compliance vendors to deliver a holistic view of risk. We're now building AI-powered compliance agents to revolutionize KYB, AML, sanctions screening, and risk scoring — enabling our customers to onboard faster, reduce manual reviews, and prevent financial crime.

Role Overview

We’re hiring a Software Engineer I to help build and scale the core platform behind AiPrise’s compliance orchestration and AI agent systems.

This is a build it, ship it, own it role. You’ll take features end to end, from design to code to deploy to iterate, across our case management product, vendor integrations, orchestration APIs, and customer facing tools. You’ll be in the trenches with founders and a fast moving team, turning messy real world compliance problems into clean, reliable systems. If you’re a hungry engineer who wants real ownership, high impact, and a product that gets used in production every day, you’ll love this.

What You'll Do

Build & Own Features End-to-End

Design, develop, and ship production features across our platform stack (backend APIs, data pipelines, integrations, case management UI)

Own complete features from requirements gathering → implementation → deployment → monitoring

Build scalable REST APIs and microservices that orchestrate checks across 80+ compliance vendors (identity verification, sanctions screening, document analysis)

Develop case management workflows and business logic for KYB/AML compliance processes

Create data pipelines for ingesting, transforming, and routing compliance data at scale

Integrate with third-party identity/compliance APIs and handle complex vendor response mapping

Drive Technical Excellence

Write clean, maintainable, well-tested code with comprehensive documentation

Participate in code reviews and contribute to engineering best practices

Debug production issues with urgency; own incident resolution end-to-end

Optimize system performance, reliability, and cost-efficiency

Build monitoring, alerting, and observability into your features

Collaborate

Work cross-functionally with product managers, compliance experts, and customer success teams

Contribute to technical decision-making and architecture discussions

Help shape engineering culture and development workflows as the team scales

What We're Looking For

Must-Have:

0-2 years of professional software engineering experience building and shipping production systems

Strong programming fundamentals in at least one modern backend language (Python, Go, Java, Node.js, or similar)

Experience building RESTful APIs, microservices, or distributed systems

Solid understanding of relational databases (PostgreSQL, MySQL) and data modeling

Familiarity with Git, CI/CD pipelines, Docker, and modern deployment practices

Strong debugging and problem-solving skills; comfortable working in unfamiliar codebases

Excellent communication skills and ability to translate business needs into technical solutions

Nice-to-Have:

Experience in FinTech, RegTech, payments, or fraud/risk detection domains

Knowledge of compliance workflows (KYC/KYB, AML, sanctions screening, adverse media)

Experience with event-driven architectures and message queues (Kafka, RabbitMQ, AWS SQS)

Familiarity with NoSQL databases (MongoDB, DynamoDB) or search engines (Elasticsearch)

Experience integrating with third-party APIs and managing vendor relationships at scale

Frontend development experience (React, TypeScript) for building internal tools

Background working with ML/AI systems or data-intensive applications
