About us
Traditional banking has never really given you control over your financial life. 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, Backend, in the Business Team, you'll play a key role in shaping the future of digital payments by designing and building scalable, high-quality systems.
Here's what that looks like in practice:
Own the Story Lifecycle - Complete the entire story lifecycle from intake to production release, ensuring all requirements are met for product stories.
Build Business Financial Systems - Develop and maintain services for fee calculations, invoicing, payout orchestration, and settlement flows to ensure accuracy for thousands of businesses.
Deliver Compliance & Reporting Solutions - Contribute to systems handling periodic reviews, risk assessments, and transaction reporting to support regulatory requirements.
Contribute to Technical Excellence - Conduct technical analysis for standard scope stories and implement robust, scalable back-end solutions.
Work in an AI Engineering Culture - Use AI as a core part of your engineering workflow to accelerate development and deepen analysis while keeping quality and judgment at the center.
Grow Your Technical Voice - Share your vision with the team through code reviews and technical discussions, building the skills to become a technical reference for the pod.
Ensure Quality and Stability - Accurately estimate effort, resolve blockers promptly, and participate in incident resolution and root cause analysis.
Document and Communicate - Create comprehensive technical documentation for the features you build and collaborate effectively with stakeholders.
Who we're looking for
This role needs someone who is a problem solver, eager to learn, owns their work, and is ready to collaborate and take real ownership.
Experience & Technical Foundations - At least 3 years of industry experience working with Java and a foundational understanding of cloud platforms (AWS is a plus).
Teamwork and Communication - Ability to communicate clearly and professionally, contributing to team-level knowledge sharing and building trust with peers.
Financial Domain Awareness - Interest in – or experience with – financial systems such as billing, invoicing, payouts, or settlement processes.
User Focus - Care about the end result and how the back-end supports a great experience for businesses, with a genuine interest in FinTech as a plus.
Language proficiency - Fluent in English, both written and spoken.
Don't worry if you don't tick every box. We believe in the power of different viewpoints and strengths. Your unique perspective is important as we build something special: if you're passionate and can make a difference, we truly encourage you to apply.
