Position: Software Engineer (Backend/API)
** Role overview**

This is a backend-focused software engineering role on a team building a unified data layer for income and employment verification used by lenders, proptechs, and other financial services businesses. The platform replaces slow, manual document collection with real-time, verifiable affordability and identity data delivered through APIs and SDKs. The position is fully remote within Europe and is part of a recently funded effort to scale a fintech infrastructure product.

** Responsibilities**
  • Design, build, and operate backend services and REST APIs that power real-time income and employment verification.
  • Develop cloud-based services that orchestrate data connections across multiple verification providers and government sources.
  • Contribute to systems that deliver affordability data for personal lending, mortgage, tenant screening, and background check use cases.
  • Collaborate with product, infrastructure, and applied ML teammates to integrate emerging capabilities such as large language models.
  • Help shape engineering practices as the team scales following a recent funding round.
** Requirements**
  • Strong software engineering experience, preferably with Kotlin/Java or Python in production systems.
  • Solid working knowledge of cloud-based environments and REST API development.
  • General-purpose programming experience in Go, Rust, JS/ES6, C/C++, or C# is welcome if paired with a strong willingness to learn Kotlin/Java or Python.
  • Creative, curious problem-solver who thrives in a fast-growing technology company.
  • Interest in how the broader organization is evolving, not just the immediate team's deliverables.
** Nice to have**
  • Hands-on exposure to large language models or applied AI inside production systems.
  • Experience with fintech infrastructure, identity verification, or data orchestration platforms.
** Benefits and work setup**
  • Competitive salary plus meaningful stock options.
  • 25 days of annual leave plus public holidays.
  • Flexible, remote-first working based in Europe.
  • Regular team off-sites and challenging work on real infrastructure impact.
