Love always drives what we do, we’re passionate about our jobs, care about our colleagues, and are devoted to our customers. Our mission is to become the most loved European financial service provider. We’re already expanding rapidly into new countries, and we’re not done yet. We have big plans. And that’s where you come in.

Your opportunity

You will be working with us on creating cutting-edge, user-friendly financial products and APIs which are used by tens of thousands of merchants on a daily basis. We care for quality and well-designed user experiences—for engineers and non-engineers alike. This translates to clean, well-documented REST APIs and equally smooth dashboard interfaces for our merchants.

With multiple payments per second at any point of the day, code quality and system scalability are becoming increasingly important. Helping us build scalable systems by thinking ahead will be an important part of your work.

Next to our APIs, we are working on innovative financial solutions for our merchants. We are happy to share the details over a coffee, but it's safe to say we will put your skills to the test, allowing you to grow and learn rapidly.

Our engineering workflow

'Ship early, ship often' is our philosophy. We like to break up big challenges into smaller ones, deploying gradual product iterations and improvements numerous times every day.

We uphold code quality through thorough and cooperative peer reviews, CI/CD build pipelines and gradual feature roll-outs. In other words, we do everything to make sure you feel comfortable pushing your changes to production on a daily basis.

Our architecture

We come from a monolithic background, with our core systems being written mostly in PHP. As our company started to scale up rapidly, we scaled our infrastructure along with it by employing microservices, serverless architecture, and queueing systems. For current and future microservices, we use languages like Python and Go as well.

What you have:

Minimum of 3 years experience with developing web applications, preferably using PHP / MySQL stacks
Experience with continuous deployment or continuous integration
Knowledge of modern queueing and caching systems like RabbitMQ, Redis, or Kafka
A knack for reducing system complexity, solving cross-team problems, and striking the right balance between quality and moving fast
