Fintech startup is looking for a backend service developer
Hi,
I am Sijbrand, and I’m the co-founder of a new fintech startup: an
innovative, interactive app, that makes investing a possibility for
everyone. We make investing not only accessible, but sustainable as
well. And we’re not just a startup: one of the largest banks in The
Netherlands funded us. Our company already has over thirty employees and
one goldfish, named Bernie, and he has the ambition to conquer not only
the Dutch market, but also the rest of Europe.
This summer our
app will go live, and we are expecting to attract a lot of customers. In
the meantime we need you to make sure our product will be developed
perfectly. If you are an enthusiastic backend service developer who can,
together with our international team of fun-loving engineers, design
and build backend services for our next gen app, well, please keep
reading!
What are you going to do?
You
will team up with our mobile engineers to make sure we are supporting
our mobile application and our customers. For that reason, it is
important that you are comfortable and confident in giving your opinion
to your fellow colleagues. You will assist in refining and enhancing our
micro-services architecture and overall service offering. You will not
rest until your code actually works and is on production. This means you
test for robustness, edge cases, usability, and general reliability. We
do not mind of course if you automate the most obvious test cases. When
you make a mistake, you will work to fix it.

same passion: making our business successful and our customers satisfied
- No bureaucratic hassle: a flatter than flat organization and no-nonsense culture
