About the role
As an early engineering hire at a fast-growing Series A-stage fintech you will have the opportunity to work closely with the founding team to shape the product vision and all parts of our technical architecture.

- Contribute to the product process from end-to-end, from ideation to building the UI, backend logic, deployment, feedback and measurement
- Build intuitive and performant web interfaces for business owners in Africa
- Implement IT security and data protection best practices in a regulated environment
- Observe opportunities for improvements internally to help automate our non-tech processes and add to our tech best practices to improve our output and efficiency
