Satispay exists to change that: to empower people through finance. That means making financial services easy and accessible for over 6.5M users. We started with payments, then benefits, investing, cards... and we’re not done. Not even close. We follow the same logic every time: find a real problem, solve it properly, then look for the next one. The destination? To build the most loved financial platform in the world. If you own outcomes rather than tasks, stay close to what users need, and refuse to wait for someone else to fix what's broken — you'll find people here who work exactly in the same way. And together, you'll build something worth being proud of. ## What you'll be doing As our Software Engineer III, Backend in the Consumer Payment & Services Domain, you'll play a key role in building and scaling the services that our users interact with daily, driving app engagement and simplifying money management for millions.
