Senior Backend Engineer at M-KOPA

At M-KOPA, you'll build sophisticated event-driven microservices with real-world impact. Our engineering teams own their solutions end-to-end – from architecture decisions to production monitoring. Join us in combining cutting-edge .NET development with purpose-driven engineering that makes digital and financial inclusion possible across Africa.

• Modern C# Stack
  : We use predominantly C# written against the latest .NET stack
• Microservices & Cloud
  : We favour microservices hosted on Azure using Kubernetes
• Event-Driven Architecture
  : We are constantly iterating towards a completely decoupled, event-driven architecture
• Mixed Environment
  : We have both legacy services and greenfield microservices

 As an engineer, you will work as a collaborator. More senior members will coach and contribute, placing an emphasis on:

• High quality output
• Observability and monitoring
• Automated testing in all environments, including production
• Infrastructure as code and DevOps practices

We expect you to be comfortable working as part of a team which owns the entire software stack, including supporting infrastructure, throughout the entire software lifecycle - from inception through production to decommissioning under a DevOps culture. You'll value the constraints that continuous delivery places upon engineering processes and embrace testing and observability as first-order concerns in development.

• Strong grasp of C# .NET development
• Experience with Event-Driven Systems
• Microservices architecture experience
• Testing and deployment expertise
• DevOps culture mindset
