Software Engineer, Developer Experience

How you'll make impact

You’ll improve how external developers discover, understand, integrate with, and build on Airwallex’s APIs and platform. You’ll work closely with Product, Engineering, Customer Success, and Technical Support to streamline the developer experience, from API design and documentation to tooling, analytics, and customer feedback loops.

• Own API standards and conventions that make Airwallex’s developer experience clearer and more consistent.
• Build the user and data analytics pipelines needed to understand how developers use our products and where they need help.
• Develop a developer portal and documentation experience with AI as a core feature.
• Contribute to open-source projects and foster a developer community around Airwallex’s platform.
• Adopt technologies that raise the bar for our engineering practices and ship external tools and services to customers.

You'll work from our Singapore office five days a week.

What we're looking for

Essentials

• A bachelor’s degree or above in computer science, engineering, or a related field.
• 3+ years of professional software engineering experience, including strong backend development experience in Java, Kotlin, Go, or Python.
• Solid computer science fundamentals, including object-oriented design.
• Experience designing, building, and operating high-volume distributed systems.
• Strong cloud engineering experience with GCP or AWS, including services such as EC2, RDS, ELB, or CloudFront, along with Docker and Kubernetes.
• Experience releasing and maintaining well-known APIs or designing APIs.

Preferred

• Experience in AI agent applications.
• Experience in MCP servers.
• Experience in maintaining open-source projects.
• Experience leading major software migrations involving breaking changes.
• Experience in developer experience or other customer-facing engineering roles.

You'll thrive here if

• You're comfortable owning the roadmap yourself.
• You're excited by a category that hasn't been won yet, and want to be early enough to shape it.
• You’re comfortable operating across time zones with a globally distributed team, including colleagues based in APAC and North America.
• You simplify complexity rather than hiding behind it.
