Recruiting Analysis – Full-Stack Software Engineer (FinTech Startup)
This is a US based remote position reporting directly to the CTO. --- About US: We are a US-based fintech embedding trust directly into the payment flow. Our patent-pending technology lets platforms, banks, and marketplaces offer conditional holds inside payments — funds release automatically when rules are met, with payouts to 200+ countries. We sell to platforms and intermediaries operating in high-value, high-risk transactions — marketplaces, brokers, logistics and trade platforms, and banks — so they can offer their SMB customers safer, compliant-by-design global payments. We''re a small, execution-focused team across Engineering, Operations, and GTM. If you want to ship meaningful work in a regulated space where the details matter, this is a good place to do it. ---
