Requirements
We’re open-minded when it comes to hiring and we care more about aptitude and attitude than specific experience or qualifications.
For the most part we code in Java, but you need not be an expert when you join us!
We believe in clean coding, simple solutions, automated testing and continuous deployment.
If you care enough to find elegant solutions to difficult technical problems, we’d love to hear from you.
For this specific role ideally you will:
- Have experience with Visa or Mastercard system integrations
- Have worked at a Bank, Fintech, Issuer or Acquirer on card integration projects
We have built our entire banking platform in-house and mostly in Java.
We are looking for people who want to work on building the tooling that is used by our engineers on a daily basis.
The main part of our Backend Tech Stack is listed below, we don't ask that you have experience in all of this, but if you do, that's great!
- Java, which makes up the majority of our backend codebase
- AWS & GCP - we're cloud-native
- Microservice-based architecture
- Kubernetes (EKS)
- TeamCity for CI / CD (lots of teams are releasing code 15-20 times per day!)
- Terraform and Grafana
