Southeast Asia's fintech moment starts here.

About the role:

As Salmon migrates to a licensed card processing model, you'll join the Card Technologies team to own integrations across issuance, management, authorization, and clearing.

What you'll do:

- Join the Card Technologies team as Salmon migrates to a licensed card processing model — a shift that touches issuance, authorization, clearing, and settlement end to end
- Work across the full card processing stack: issuance and personalization bureau integration, card management, authorization, and clearing
- Help stand up new integrations from scratch as part of the licensing migration, working closely with engineering, Finance, and Operations to keep settlement and reconciliation accurate throughout the transition

What you'll own:

- Own the integration between card issuance and the personalization bureau
- Own card management flows end to end
- Own authorization processing integrations
- Own clearing flow integrations
- Partner with Finance and Operations on settlement and reconciliation processes

What makes you a strong fit:

- 3+ years as a System Analyst, ideally in fintech or banking
- Experience with payment services or systems, and understanding of how acquirers, issuers, and payment systems interact
- Solid knowledge of microservice architecture and system design
- Experience with API design and integrations from scratch
- Strong SQL skills
- Experience with incident analysis and resolution in production

What we offer:

Ownership and flexibility

- Stock option plan — four-year vesting with a 25% cliff after the first year
- Fully remote work with core collaboration hours from 12:00 to 6:00 PM Manila time (UTC+8)
- Company-provided tools and equipment

Health and time off

- Medical insurance support for you and your family through co-funding or reimbursement, depending on your location and subject to policy limits
- Access to an internal mental health support specialist
- 22 vacation days, Philippine public holidays, and 15 sick days

Growth and team experience

- Opportunities to learn and share your expertise through internal expert meetups, external conferences, speaking opportunities, and industry publications
- Company-sponsored trips to Manila to meet and work with your team in person
- High-performing teams can earn a dedicated beach house week in Southeast Asia

We believe strong teams are built by people with different backgrounds, experiences, and points of view. Salmon is an equal opportunity employer, and we make hiring decisions based on skills, experience, and potential.
