About us 🚀

We accelerate the growth of digital companies by providing tailored funding solutions and data-driven financial insights. Our mission is to refine capital for economies to come. We want to enable every company to access funding that'll help them to thrive.

As a product- and tech-driven company we are founded by a team of experienced fintech entrepreneurs. We are backed by Tier 1 venture capital investors that have also backed the likes of Stripe, Trade Republic, Telegram, Monday.com and Sorare.

Our values 💪🏼

We value flat hierarchies, full ownership and responsibility. Trust and open, honest communication are crucial to us, as it makes everything else easier. We work together and grow as a team.

Focus on Execution: We love and live off great ideas, but to create value we need to focus on execution.

Don’t Fear Failure: We know that failure is an innate part of learning and success, so we value these experiences and take them as opportunities to try again and get better.

Trust Your Team: We trust our peers to do their best to achieve our shared goals, support each other and share their feedback so we can all grow and develop.


What will you do 😎

You will be a key part of our engineering team making sure that everything in our backend runs smoothly. You will report to the VP Engineering.

Your key responsibilities 🤓

  • You will work closely with frontend engineers, designers, product managers, data scientists and financial analysts
  • You will actively create new proposals and ideas to improve our system or suggest new features
  • You will work on our financial funding product e.g. features that deal with managing cash flows or that automate daily operations of our financial advisors
  • You will make sure that the orchestration and processing of all customer data runs smoothly. The work there will entail things like adding new third-party connections, orchestrating the data flow (e.g., calling our Python services to calculate certain metrics), and features that provide insights into our customers' data.

Who we are looking for 👩🏽‍💻

  • You are an experienced engineer (3+ years of experience) who is ready to own a key part of our product and to start building from day 1 onwards
  • You are proficient in building production-grade systems in at least one backend technology (e.g., Go, Node.js, Ruby on Rails, Elixir Phoenix, Java Spring, Clojure) and are willing to work in Go
  • You are proficient in software architecture design, database design (ideally PostgreSQL) and value clean code and continuous integration and deployment processes
  • You are proficient writing tests and value writing them (unit, integration, e2e)
  • You are highly (self-)organized, want to move and build things fast and operate under the ‘ask for forgiveness instead of permission’ principle
  • Experience in setting up and maintaining a cloud infrastructure (Terraform, ideally AWS) is a plus
  • Experience in data engineering topics such as building ETL pipelines, creating data workflows (e.g., Dagster, Airflow), working with a data warehouse (e.g., BigQuery, Snowflake, DuckDB) and relevant technologies (DBT, python) is a plus
  • Experience in fintech or finance in general is a plus
  • You have a valid EU work permit and reside within the EU. re:cap does not offer visa or relocation support at the moment
What you can expect 🪴
  • Remote first. Our team is located all over Germany and Europe, with the flexibility of 100% home office. However, if you are in Berlin you are more than welcome to come around the office and maybe even bring your furry friend 🐶
  • Stock options. Every employee receives stocks, because our success is also your success
  • Development opportunities. Because we care about your growth, we have regular feedback talks as well as set paths for the development of each employee
  • The latest tech equipment. Every new team member receives an Apple MacBook Air to guarantee smooth productivity
  • Flexibility. We offer flexible working hours and value asynchronous communication as well. On top we offer 25 vacation days
  • Team building. Meet the team at in-person on-sites, get a buddy to fully integrate into the company and join other team events
  • International travel health insurance. Prioritizing your well-being with comprehensive coverage, we guarantee your peace of mind wherever your travels take you
  • Workation. Experience the blend of work and leisure with our worldwide new benefit catering to your work-away-from-home needs
  • We care about security. You will receive 1password family membership
  • Choice. You get a monthly budget to finance a benefit of your choice

Even if not all of these points fit 100% we encourage you to apply! We hire also for attitude, not just for knowledge and are looking forward to hearing from you soon.
