Founders are serial entrepreneurs who co‑founded and served as C‑suite executives at 3 FinTech unicorns.

Our backend is written in Ruby on Rails on AWS, using lots of vanilla infrastructure. Our frontend and mobile apps are written in ReactJS on Vercel and Flutter. Strong internships and general open‑source experience are necessary, but familiarity with our particular stack is preferred.
