What is Cobre and what do we do?

Cobre is Latin America’s leading instant b2b payments platform. We solve the region’s most complex money movement challenges by building advanced financial infrastructure that enables companies to move money faster, safer, and more efficiently.

We enable instant business payments—local or international, direct or via API—all from a single platform.

Built for fintechs, PSPs, banks, and finance teams that demand speed, control, and efficiency. From real-time payments to automated treasury, we turn complex financial processes into simple experiences.

Cobre is the first platform in Colombia to enable companies to pay both banked and unbanked beneficiaries within the same payment cycle and through a single interface.

We are building the enterprise payments infrastructure of Latin America!

What we are looking for


We are looking for a Senior Backend Engineer to join our Portal team. This team owns the main interface our customers interact with — enabling them to operate payments, manage users, configure security, and interact with our financial products.

In this role, you will not only work on a classic Backend-for-Frontend (BFF) architecture but also help us scale a highly event-driven backend, where asynchronous processing and decoupled services are critical to our operations.

What would you be doing


  • Analyze, develop, test, and write code necessary to adapt to business requirements.


  • Analyze and resolve platform issues by identifying the root causes and their effects on hardware, network, service operations, and overall quality.

  • Define, implement, and maintain monitoring and observability strategies (metrics, logging, alerting) to ensure system health and performance.

  • Review code developed by other engineers, providing feedback to ensure adherence to the best practices.

  • Collaborate across teams on product, security, architecture, and performance to deliver high-quality software solutions.

  • Ability to code/develop and build/deploy the necessary solution within our existing environments, identifying and managing delivery risks, proactively removing blockers, promoting continuous delivery practices.

  • Actively participate in, or lead design reviews with peers and stakeholders to decide the best solution, ensuring scalability and resiliency.


  • Drive the delivery process, coordinating deployments, validating readiness, and ensuring alignment with delivery timelines and business goals.


  • Be a mentor to your team members.


  • Managed task planning.

What do you need


  • 5+ years of experience proficiently writing code in Node.js, TypeScript, and 2+ with Python (additional programming languages are a plus).

  • 2+ years of experience designing or working with event-driven architectures (AWS SNS/SQS, EventBridge, Kafka or similar).

  • Solid experience working with AWS serverless services (Lambda, Step Functions, S3, CloudWatch, etc).

  • Experience with asynchronous processing, queue handling, retry strategies, dead letter queues.

  • Direct experience working on highly concurrent processing platforms, ideally in the payment industry (processors, PSPs, processing gateways, Exchanges, etc).


  • Understanding of DevOps best practices, IaC, and cloud-first software development.


  • Experience in CI/CD concept, and capabilities to support automation, pipelines, virtualization, and containerization.


  • Passion for clean code, simplicity, and scalability.


  • Strong oral and written communication skills.


If you're seeking an exciting next step that would both challenge and thrill you, then this opportunity is for you!
