About the role

  • Moniepoint is hiring a senior Generalist Engineer for the Research & Development Team to own problems end-to-end and deliver complete production systems.
  • This is a broad, high-ownership role operating across software, distributed systems, infrastructure, data, and machine learning.

Responsibilities

  • Design and build production-grade systems that are reliable, scalable, and observable.
  • Own systems end-to-end from problem definition to design, data, implementation, deployment, and operations.
  • Work across application services, distributed systems, infrastructure, data pipelines, and ML systems.
  • Debug complex production issues across multiple layers.
  • Make engineering trade-offs grounded in first principles.
  • Improve performance, latency, reliability, and cost efficiency.
  • Contribute to architecture and technical direction.
  • Frame problems correctly to determine when to use ML versus deterministic systems.
  • Train, evaluate, and iterate on models and build reproducible pipelines.
  • Deploy models and monitor performance, drift, and cost.

Requirements

  • Strong CS fundamentals including DSA, OS, networking, and distributed systems.
  • Solid probability and statistics.
  • Experience building production systems at scale.
