Senior Backend Engineer (Product)
Posted Updated
- Maintaining our start-up spirit, we prioritize thorough research, swift implementation of solutions, and ensuring that every effort we make benefits our users, employees, partners, and, of course, our business
- We’re looking for a Senior Backend Engineer who thinks like a product builder, thrives in a collaborative, cross-functional environment, and is passionate about creating robust, scalable financial infrastructure
- You’ll be part of a domain team where various engineering crafts (Backend, Frontend, Mobile, ML/AI engineers, and QA) work together to own and evolve a shared product area that delivers real value to hundreds of thousands of businesses across Europe
- Our tech stack:
- Backend: .NET/C#, PostgreSQL, Redis, RabbitMQ, Kafka, Kubernetes, GCP
- You’ll work alongside teams using React (Web), Swift (iOS) / Kotlin (Android), Python/ML frameworks, and modern test automation tools (Playwright, Appium)
- You communicate clearly across disciplines and genuinely enjoy the dynamics of a cross-functional team where everyone contributes to solving the same customer problems. Above all, you’re curious – about the product, the users, the business, and how your technical decisions impact all three
- You’re pragmatic, learn quickly, and have a proven track record of shipping products that matter
- You’re comfortable discussing trade-offs with product managers, explaining technical constraints to business stakeholders, and collaborating with frontend and mobile engineers to design elegant end-to-end solutions
- As a product-minded backend engineer, you don’t just implement tickets. You understand the “why” behind what you’re building, challenge assumptions when needed, and proactively identify opportunities to create better outcomes
- You have deep expertise in .NET and C# with a strong appreciation for maintainable, scalable code, and distributed architectures
- But more importantly, you know when to apply that expertise and when simpler solutions serve the product better. You’ve built data-intensive applications before and understand the concepts of working in a regulated environment
- You take ownership not just of your code, but of the outcomes. You move without being prompted, whether that’s jumping into a customer issue, improving team processes, or mentoring colleagues
- Quality is non-negotiable for you. Automated testing, thorough code reviews, and security best practices are fundamental to how you work. You balance technical excellence with pragmatism, always keeping the end user and business goals in mind
- Hands-on experience architecting and evolving distributed systems in production
- At least 5 years of professional backend development with a product engineering mindset
- Proven ability to collaborate effectively with product managers, designers, and engineers from other disciplines
- Clear, concise communication in English across technical and non-technical audiences
- Excellent knowledge of .NET platform and C#
- A builder’s mentality: you care deeply about shipping great products, not just writing great code
- Strong business acumen – you understand how your work connects to company objectives
- You’re curious about adjacent domains – you might peek at the frontend code, ask questions about the ML models, or dive into analytics to understand how features perform

- Recruiter Interview
- First Technical Interview
- System Design Interview
- Team Fit Interview (peer interview)
