We are looking for a Software Development Engineer to assist in building and strengthening our new-generation Risk platform. GoDaddy is a global product seller to customers from all over the world. This makes GoDaddy a primary target for fraud and abuse activities. GoDaddy’s Risk Platform has a responsibility to stop that activity and forecast and prevent any future activity across GoDaddy. If building anti-fraud software capabilities, out-of-the-box thinking, cloud-based technologies, and machine learning sound exciting to you then you are made for the role!

Do you want to have a global influence while working from India? Then this is the perfect role for you! GoDaddy is the world’s largest web services platform. Our mission is to make opportunity more inclusive for all and fuel a new generation of entrepreneurial endeavors. We are building a modern cloud-native eCommerce platform that will power eCommerce on GoDaddy properties for years to come.

• Create new and improved reporting packages and identify automation opportunities for risk rule performance analysis.
• You will build a secure, highly available, fault-tolerant, and globally performant micro-services-based platform deployed on the AWS cloud that uses the newest technology stack
• The nature of the Risk Platform emphasizes speed, reliability, and minimal impact on genuine customers so you will have a chance to present your ideas, solutions, and out-of-the-box thinking
• You will work in a scrum team and join forces with other specialists, product managers, architects, and operations teams from within and outside of the eCommerce group

Your experience should include...

• 4+ years of technology experience in a software engineering role and building large-scale distributed applications or solutions

We've got your back...  We offer a range of benefits that may include paid time off, retirement savings (e.g., 401k, pension schemes), incentive eligibility, equity grants, participation in an employee stock purchase plan, and other family-friendly benefits including parental leave. GoDaddy’s benefits vary based on individual role and location and can be reviewed in more detail during the interview process.
