Current banking systems don't let us send, spend or receive money across borders easily. Or quickly. Or cheaply. 

So, we’re building a new one.

And, we need a Senior Product Engineer with a Java focus to join our mission and help us build a global platform that’s scalable, reliable and secure. We’re working on lots of algorithmical challenges, and you’ll dive right into projects on reconciliation, integrations, authorisations and authentications.

  • collaborating with data scientists, machine learning engineers, product managers and customer support experts by combining creative problem-solving, continuous improvement, and empathy for the customer experience.
  • leveraging the recent developments in AI to transform business operations.

 

What does it take?  

  • A strong product mindset and passion for customer experience, you prioritise work with the customers in mind and make data-driven decisions to fix customer pain-points
  • Great communication skills and the ability to articulate complex, technical concepts to non-technical audience
  • Experience working with relational and non-relational databases, query optimisation and designing schemas

  • You believe in and follow best coding practices, code reviews and open feedback
