About the role
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 Backend Tech Lead, you'll play a critical role in shaping the future of digital welfare payments—handling everything from employer benefits to complex products.
Here's what that looks like in practice:
Drive multi-service solutions - Conduct technical analysis for medium-to-large projects, designing highly-available, scalable, and secure solutions for products that define the welfare core.
Ensure technical quality - Implement robust testing strategies and oversee gradual rollouts to ensure welfare distributions are precise and reliable.
Resolve and anticipate blockers - Proactively address technical blockers, drive knowledge sharing, and tackle unique B2B registration and high-volume benefit allocation challenges.
Execution and ownership - Take full ownership of your work, delivering features that provide a seamless back-end integration from employer signup to employee spending.
Mentor peers - Provide technical guidance and mentorship to junior and mid-level engineers, ensuring high-quality engineering practices across the team.
System maintenance and stability - Simplify payments and improve accessibility by maintaining efficient systems that handle complex welfare regulations with ease.
User-first engineering - Build products where technical excellence translates into a frictionless journey for both employers and employees.
Who we're looking for
This role needs someone who is a problem-solver, loves teamwork, and gets things done with curiosity and readiness for real ownership.
Extensive experience - At least 5 years of related experience in back-end software engineering, with a proven track record in microservices and cloud environments.
Programming expertise - Deep experience with Java and a strong understanding of cloud platforms (AWS is a plus).
Technical leadership - Proven ability to conduct technical analysis for large-scope projects affecting multiple systems and drive knowledge sharing.
Structured communication - Communicate in a professional and structured manner, building trust with stakeholders and maintaining reliable technical documentation.
Language proficiency - Passionate about FinTech or startup environments and fluent in English.
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.
