Job description

Are you a Software Engineer who loves moving fast, taking full ownership of and pushing the boundaries of technology with cutting-edge AI coding agents? If you thrive on building high-impact fintech features, this role is for you.

Your role

You won’t be stuck in corporate hierarchy here, we find hierarchy a difficult word. Instead, you’ll join a cross-functional team alongside product, design, and business colleagues. Together, you own a specific part of the customer journey end-to-end: from landing pages to loan applications, repayments, and collections. Real ownership, zero passing the buck.

Your responsibilities

• Build features end to end across backend, frontend, database and queues: TypeScript with NestJS and Next.js, on Postgres, Redis, SNS and SQS
• Connect systems by building and maintaining integrations with external partners and internal services, e.g. credit bureaus, payment providers, our CRM (HubSpot) and our loan ledger (Mambu)
• Partner up with business departments to decide what gets built and why
• Leverage AI: experiment with coding agents and push the boundaries of how software gets built safely and fast
• Keep the codebase safe to change as we scale: tests, contracts between services, alerts, reviewing agent-generated code
• Ship small and verify in production: logs, traces and metrics in Grafana, errors in Sentry, feature flags and A/B tests in PostHog
• Run what you ship on AWS and Kubernetes, with infrastructure in Terraform and pipelines in GitLab CI
• Production support and blameless incident follow-up that fixes the system, not the person

Requirements

What you bring

• 5+ years of hands-on full stack engineering experience in any programming language, with real production ownership
• Solid database and async systems experience: data modelling, schema migrations on live systems, query performance; queues, retries, idempotency
• Curious and already actively experimenting with AI coding agents and agentic workflows.
• Analytical mindset—you find the true "source of truth" before patching anything.
• A team player who cuts through the noise. You turn vague ideas into sharp questions, pull the right colleagues in early, and give code reviews that actually move the work forward.
• Familiarity with cloud-native technology and its tooling, e.g. containers, orchestration, CI/CD, infrastructure as code
• Experience in fintech, web tracking, or marketing tools is a nice bonus, but not a dealbreaker.

We grew 55% last year and have proudly fast-tracked over €700 million in loans to entrepreneurs. Our next goal? To scale our data capabilities by making our platform even sharper, ensuring support for the next generation of entrepreneurs
