Many of the problems weâre solving result in genuinely trail blazing solutions which canât be found on StackOverflow; so weâre looking for an experienced engineer that thrives on working in a complex domain.
We use Go, microservices architecture (gRPC) and AWS, but if you come from a Java, Python or other relevant language weâll help you get up to speed with our comprehensive engineering onboarding program.

As an experienced lead-level or senior engineer, youâll have:
