Jobbeschreibung

Solaris is Europe's leading embedded finance platform, pioneering Banking-as-a-Service to bridge the gap between financial technology and licensed banking.

Today, Solaris is driving the next evolution of financial services by transitioning into an AI-native banking platform, ensuring European businesses can deploy secure, adaptable financial products at scale.

Why join Solaris?

We are fundamentally redesigning banking processes around AI orchestration, standardized modular building blocks, and embedded regulatory compliance.

We combine tech and banking in dedicated hubs - driving the technology infrastructure out of Berlin and banking operations out of Frankfurt.

Through our internal mobility, growth opportunities, and the Solaris Academy, we offer continuous learning tracks, AI ambassador mentorship, and upskilling to keep your skills ahead of the curve.

We foster a workplace rooted in integrity, proactive risk management, and equality actively driving initiatives like DEI initiatives.
