Design and build the services that move money safely — accounts, ledgers, payments, and the APIs our product runs on.

About the role

You’ll work on the core that everything else depends on: a correct, observable, and fast money-movement platform. You’ll also help us push AI deeper into the stack — from copilots in our own workflow to LLM- and ML-assisted features like smart categorisation and anomaly detection — while keeping the safety bar high.

What you'll do

  • Build and operate core money-movement services end to end
  • Design data models and APIs for accounts, transfers, and balances
  • Own reliability, observability, and performance of what you ship
  • Integrate ML/LLM services safely into production flows (fraud signals, support, insights)
  • Partner with risk and compliance to ship without surprises

What we're looking for

  • 5+ years building backend systems in production
  • Strong in a typed language (Go, Rust, TypeScript, Kotlin, …)
  • Deep care for correctness — testing, idempotency, data integrity
  • Comfortable using AI coding tools to move faster without lowering quality
  • Clear written communication in an async, remote team

Nice to have

  • Payments, ledgers, or regulated-fintech experience
  • Experience shipping ML/LLM features to production
  • Event-driven architecture and exactly-once processing

How we work

  • Remote-first and async — we default to writing things down over meetings.
  • Small teams with real ownership; you ship, you decide, you’re trusted.
  • AI-augmented by default — everyone has the best AI tools and is expected to use them well.
  • Weekly shipping cadence; we learn from real customers, not long roadmaps.
  • Calm by design — sustainable pace, deep work, no busywork.

Benefits & perks

  • Competitive salary, benchmarked globally and reviewed yearly
  • Meaningful equity — everyone shares in what we build
  • Fully remote, work from anywhere within ±4 hours of CET
  • Top-tier hardware plus paid subscriptions to the AI tools you need
  • Annual learning budget and conference allowance
  • Home-office or co-working stipend
  • 30+ days paid time off, plus local public holidays
  • Twice-yearly team offsites in a different city
