Gigster is a fully-managed software development services company that specializes in assembling global teams at scale.
The Role

Do you want to work on cutting-edge projects with the world’s best IT engineers? Do you wish you could control which projects to work on and choose your own pay rate? Are you interested in the future of work and how the cloud will form teams? If so - the Gigster Talent Network is for you.

Our clients rely on our Network for two main areas, Software Development and Cloud Services. In some cases, they need help building great new products, in others they want our expertise in migrating, maintaining, and optimizing their cloud solutions.

At Gigster, whether working with entrepreneurs to realize ‘the next great vision’ or with Fortune 500 companies to deliver a big product launch, we build really cool enterprise software on cutting-edge technology.

The Role

We're partnering with an early-stage startup solving a real, high-value problem in the hedge fund space. Fund managers spend $100K/year on research PDFs – we’re building a product to extract critical trading insights using AI and deliver them via a clean, powerful dashboard (no chatbots here).

We’re looking for a hands-on Technical Lead or Founding Engineer to help us build our MVP over the next 3 months.

What you’ll do:
  • Own the product’s technical architecture and direction
  • Ensure we meet ISO/GDPR and security best practices (FinTech compliance)
  • Work closely with our full-stack dev, UX designer, and DevOps engineer
  • Help us ship a high-quality, high-trust MVP for a high-stakes market
  • Set up and own the architecture and tooling decisions from scratch
What we’re looking for:
  • Experience building and scaling AI-driven products or platforms with a focus on security and efficiency
  • Proven ability to scale early-stage technical projects with users in mind
  • Strong understanding of data privacy, compliance, and security
  • Bonus: background in FinTech, hedge funds, or B2B SaaS
  • Startup mindset — pragmatic, fast-moving, collaborative
  • No hard requirement for specific languages or frameworks — we're currently using React + Vite.js, Postgres + PGVector, and FAISS for embeddings, but you're free to shape the stack
Logistics:
  • We’re ready to interview and get started ASAP
  • We know great people are in high demand — while we begin UX improvements and user testing, we’re happy to be flexible on start date
  • Preferred timezones: CET/ London. 
  • Preferred location: Remote Europe. 
What’s in it for you:
  • Option to evolve into a longer-term leadership or advisory role
  • Build something meaningful in a niche with real commercial demand
