We 💛 small business

We founded Holvi in 2011, in Helsinki. As self-employed people wading through oceans of paperwork, we noticed something funny going on – traditional banks were giving us the cold shoulder. Why not help ourselves? We asked. And so, with time and effort (and lots of coffee), we mastered small business finance – and Holvi was born.

Our vision is simple: Eliminate the distractions of financial admin and simplify work life, because running a business is hard enough. Small businesses shouldn’t have to worry about spreadsheets and lost receipts.

Since our inception as a pioneering fintech, we've experienced our fair share of challenges and growth. We explored different paths, and from those experiences, we've evolved.

Today, we stand as a team-owned and profitable company, proud of our journey. Read more about our story here (in Finnish).

Right now, we’re looking for a talented Full Stack Developer to join our team. If you want to help us make running a business a little easier, Holvi is for you.

Build a better future for small businesses

As a Full Stack Developer, you’ll join one of Holvi’s development teams. Each development team has its own developers, designers, and a product owner. Teams work on building new features, implementing technical improvements, and maintaining our applications. As part of our interview process, we’ll explain what is in each team's backlog in more detail and chat about which one might fit you best.

A typical day could see you:

• Designing, implementing, and maintaining features for both frontend and backend components of Holvi’s applications.
• Working with the cross-functional development team in dailies, refinements, planning, and retrospective meetings.
• Contributing to the product’s development by collaborating with product owners, designers, and other engineers.
• Building and maintaining APIs that integrate seamlessly with our frontend and third-party services.
• Writing and reviewing high-quality, maintainable, and testable code for web-based platforms.
• Driving improvements in the technical stack, including code refactoring and package updates.

This is for you if you:

• Are passionate about building modern, user-centric web applications.
• Have experience with both frontend and backend development.
• Like writing clean, maintainable code and designing performant, scalable solutions.
• Have a solid understanding of web application architecture and RESTful API design.
• Can refine requirements in an iterative and collaborative manner.
• Want to work in an open team setting, where everybody is easily approachable.
• Communicate clearly and effectively in English, both spoken and written.

It’s a plus if you:

• Are familiar with technologies like Python, Vue, TypeScript, or Node.js.
• Have experience working with relational databases like PostgreSQL.
• Are comfortable with cloud services (e.g., AWS, Google Cloud).
• Have experience from banking, accounting, or other fintech areas.
• Are familiar with CI/CD pipelines and containerization (e.g., Docker).
