We’ve transformed investing in Turkey by delivering a seamless experience for everyday investors. Today, 4.5 million users invest with Midas. Backed by an $80M Series B, the largest fintech investment ever in Turkey, we are scaling faster than ever. As part of the Growth Strategy team at Midas, you will take growth targets and turn them into concrete initiatives with clear scope, ownership, and KPIs. You will work closely with product, marketing, data, and other cross-functional teams to plan, coordinate, and drive execution from idea to implementation. This role requires staying close to execution — tracking progress, resolving blockers, and ensuring initiatives deliver measurable results. ## What You'll Do - Translate company growth targets into clear priorities, campaigns, and strategic initiatives. - Lead the planning, prioritization, and impact measurement of campaigns and initiatives. - Identify growth opportunities across products, acquisition, activation, retention, and revenue, and drive execution. - Plan and track marketing budgets, evaluate returns, and optimize investments against growth goals. - Align cross-functional teams, remove blockers, and adjust plans to keep growth initiatives on track. ## What You'll Bring - Proven experience owning growth initiatives and campaigns in a consumer product business, ideally in fintech. - Strong analytical and structured problem-solving skills, with a solid understanding of growth metrics and business outcomes. - Experience managing marketing budgets and evaluating campaign effectiveness. - Ability to understand products and user needs, identify opportunities, and turn them into actionable plans. - Strong ownership and clear communication, with a track record of driving cross-functional execution in fast-paced environments. ## About Midas ## Company Overview - **One-liner**: Midas is a Turkish fintech company operating a regulated brokerage platform that enables retail investors to trade Turkish and US equities, mutual funds, and cryptocurrencies with zero commission. - **Entity Type**: Private (Series B) - **Headquarters**: İstanbul, Turkey - **Founded**: 2021 - **Founders**: Egem Eraslan (CEO), Umut Bozkurt ## Core Business - **Industry**: Financial Services / Fintech – retail brokerage and investment platform - **Target Customers**: B2C – individual retail investors in Turkey (and expanding internationally) - **Mission**: To make investing in Turkish and American stocks easy and accessible, positioning itself as Turkey’s largest retail investment platform. ## Products & Services - **[Midas Mobile App]**: A mobile-first trading platform offering zero-commission trading on Borsa İstanbul (BIST) and US stock exchanges. Includes features for equities, mutual funds, and cryptocurrency trading. (SaaS / mobile app) - **[Midas Web Platform]**: Web-based access for trading and portfolio management, complementing the mobile app. ## Market Standing - **Valuation**: Not publicly disclosed (latest round was Series B in September 2025) - **Key Metric**: Total Funding of **$139M** (across 4 rounds, including $80M Series B led by QED Investors in Sep 2025) - **Annual Revenue**: **$3.75M** (estimated from LinkedIn data) - **Notable Investors**: QED Investors (lead Series B), Portage Ventures (lead Series A), Spark Capital, Earlybird Digital East Fund - **Growth Signals**: - Monthly website traffic ~788k visits, +25.1% month-over-month and +10.7% year-over-year. - Headcount grew **23.6% YoY** to 350 employees. - Active job postings increased **80% year-over-year** (9 open roles). - Recently launched a card product and expanded into new asset classes. ## Competitive Advantages - **Regulated Brokerage**: Holds a SPK (Capital Markets Board of Turkey) license, offering a trusted, compliant platform in a market with high demand for accessible investing. - **Zero-Commission Model**: Disrupts traditional Turkish brokerage fees, attracting cost-sensitive retail investors. - **Local + Global Access**: Allows Turkish investors to trade both BIST and US stocks seamlessly from a single app. - **Strong Tech Stack**: Modern infrastructure (Kubernetes, microservices, PostgreSQL, Python, etc.) enabling rapid feature development and scalability. ## Strategic Focus - **Product Expansion**: Growing beyond equities into mutual funds, cryptocurrencies, and a card product to become a comprehensive financial super-app. - **International Growth**: Already has employees across 16 countries; likely targeting expat Turkish communities and broader European markets. - **Engineering & Data**: Hiring aggressively for data, infrastructure, and platform roles (e.g., Analytics Manager, Infrastructure Engineer, Engineering Manager for Data Store & Reliability) to support scaling. ## Why Work Here - **Culture**: Described as a fast-growing fintech with a flat hierarchy and a focus on ownership. However, Glassdoor-style ratings are low (2.0/5.0 based on 3 reviews) – take with caution. The large number of ex-employees from top Turkish tech companies (Trendyol, Getir, Papara) suggests a competitive talent environment. - **Remote/Hybrid Policy**: Not explicitly stated, but offices in Istanbul (Uskudar and Üsküdar). Likely hybrid given the tech-heavy workforce. - **Engineering Culture**: Strong emphasis on modern tools (Kubernetes, GitOps, observability stack). Engineering makes up ~43% of the workforce (149 out of 350). Active hiring for senior and lead engineering roles. - **Perks**: Not detailed, but as a well-funded Series B company, likely offers competitive compensation (4.0/5.0 compensation rating) and equity. ## Sources 1.
