What will you do? ✍️

Your primary focus will be on building our next-gen banking infrastructure on top of some of the best providers in the world. You will need to implement secure, reliable and scalable solutions to manage transfers, virtual accounts, cards and fraud detection patterns. In strong collaboration with our ops and product team, you’ll work with other engineers in a squad to tackle the challenges as fast and as securely as possible.

At Spendesk, you will be part of a team that hates the comfort zone, moves fast and deals with trade-offs all the time. Your work won’t be only about writing code, it will also be to define our needs, anticipate the bottlenecks and create the best banking infrastructure so far.

Needless to say that by joining our team as software engineer you’ll get to work closely with anyone across the company and every decision you’ll make may have a huge impact, especially given that our product will extensively rely on your work! Exciting, isn’t it?

• Terraform to define our infrastructure
