In the BlinkID Verify team, we are building an API for document verification that determines whether the document presented in an image is authentic or not. The product utilizes in-house-developed machine learning (computer vision) models for document analysis as well as additional business logic to check against common fraud vectors. The product is consumed by developers whom we see as important users, while the verification results are utilized by banks, retail, gaming, and other industries in many of their critical user identification flows.

A little bit about us

Microblink is an AI company with expertise in computer vision. We create unique products and tools with the desire to make the future digital identity world a secure ‘no-fake-zone,’ one verification at a time. Our teams in Zagreb, Sofia, and New York touch hundreds of millions of people every year, processing over 800M identity documents in more than 70 countries around the world.

Here’s what you’ll do

  • Build applications using modern principles in containerized and serverless environments
  • Contribute to the entire product life cycle, make a meaningful impact, and take ownership of your work while growing professionally
  • Develop  highly performant, highly available services with high throughput
  • Contribute to company-wide technical decisions by working on both individual products and shared services. Most of our products are pretty technical which means that engineers at Microblink are empowered to make suggestions and drive our products forward
  • Work closely with DevOps engineers, QA specialists, UX designers, UI developers, product managers, and other key roles in delivery
  • Proactively coordinate with other product teams about potential dependencies and work with engineers from other teams to keep our tech strategies aligned and compatible

Here’s what you need to be successful in this role

  • Proficient in .NET 8 and C# 12
    • You see yourself as a senior software engineer who prioritizes solving problems using the best tools for the job, rather than focusing narrowly on specific technologies. For instance, you're open to contributing to a C++ codebase or collaborating with a machine learning team if required.
  • You take ownership of your work, considering the bigger picture, and strive to improve systems and workflows beyond your immediate responsibilities—whether that's optimizing deployment processes, refining team practices, or influencing feature requirements.
  • Strong understanding of object-oriented programming (OOP) principles.
  • Proficiency in Git for version control.
  • Experience designing and implementing RESTful APIs
  • Effective team collaboration and clear communication skills.
  • Fluent in English.
  • Proficiency in querying and working with both relational and non-relational databases.
  • Familiar with modern serverless architectures and experience with cloud platforms, particularly GCP.

A plus is if you have some experience in any (not all!) of the following areas:

  • Programming Languages
    • C++
    • Python
  • Experience with Redis, mobile dev, Docker and Kubernetes
