(Senior) Backend Engineer (Golang) - Bank
SumUp, Vilnius, Lithuania +5
About the job
In the Global Bank tribe, we are building the infrastructure and core services needed to provide our merchants with a digital bank account that empowers them to be successful at doing what they love. Our goal is to become the most popular banking partner for small merchants globally by offering a high-quality banking experience tailored to their needs—effortless, simple, and affordable.
Joining the Global Bank tribe means playing a key role in helping us build SumUp's digital bank. You’ll collaborate with a global, autonomous, cross-functional team that refines an aspect of our product from concept to execution. Work alongside colleagues from 32 nationalities across Cologne, Berlin, São Paulo, Sofia, London and Vilnius, united by a shared commitment to taking ownership, working with purpose, and helping small businesses thrive.
As a Backend Engineer, you will play a key role in helping us transition from a localized setup with regional banks to a unified Global Bank. A significant challenge will involve supporting the move to a fully distributed, event-driven architecture.
Our tech stack includes Go, AWS, Kafka, PostgreSQL, and Kubernetes, supported by a strong observability toolchain with Prometheus, Grafana, and Honeycomb. We also actively use AI‑assisted development tools such as Cursor, GitHub Copilot, and others.
