About us
Satispay began by rethinking the simple act of a payment to remove the friction from our daily routines. But we didn’t stop there. Today, we are building a complete financial platform designed to empower people and concretely improve their lives. By giving our 6 million users a clear, open path to pay, save, and invest, we are evolving into the definitive destination for every financial need.

Own the Feature Lifecycle – Design, build, test, and operate backend services for savings and investment products—from initial technical design to production—using Java, Spring Boot, and PostgreSQL.
Build Scalable Wealth Products – Develop and maintain core functionalities like the "Invested Money Box", automated savings goals, and investment portfolios, ensuring high reliability and transactional consistency.
Master a Modern Tech Stack – Take ownership of our AWS-based infrastructure (EC2/ECS, S3, Lambda, Kinesis) and contribute to architectural improvements to ensure smooth integration across wealth-related microservices.
Work in an AI-Powered Environment – Leverage AI tools daily to write and optimize code, speed up root cause analysis, and generate documentation, raising the bar for engineering efficiency.
Solve Complex Financial Problems – Turn financial requirements into scalable technical solutions, balancing delivery speed with the extreme precision required by wealth management systems.
Collaborate & Lead Quality – Work cross-functionally with Product and UX teams while actively contributing to code reviews, post-mortems, and refactoring initiatives to promote engineering best practices.
Drive System Reliability – Debug complex issues across services, investigate production incidents, and share learnings with the team to continuously improve the health of our financial engines.
