Job Description
The Role
- We are looking for a Fullstack Engineer who thrives on building resilient, distributed systems and great user interfaces.

- You will design mission-critical systems that automate the movement of massive volumes of money, ensuring our "plumbing" is invisible, fast, and fail-safe.
- We are currently only considering local candidates as relocation support is not provided. For local candidates we are able to support transfer of visa sponsorship!
What You'll Do
- Architect Distributed Systems: Design and maintain scalable microservices (primarily in Java/Spring Boot) capable of handling billions in monthly volume with zero downtime.
- Product Design: Propose and build the user interfaces to allow operations work efficiently and safe.
- Solve Global Logistics: Develop the logic that handles real-world constraints, such as bank-specific API quirks, holiday schedules, and regional settlement cut-offs.
- Data Integrity & Reconciliation: Build and optimize the data infrastructure that ensures every movement of money is accounted for, creating a source of truth for our data-driven decision-making.
