About Us

We are a fast-growing fintech startup building Europe’s first loan tokenization platform. Our platform converts real-world loans into digital tokens using ERC tokenization standards, making investment in diversified loan pools transparent and efficient.


This is an opportunity to own a modern backend that powers fintech + blockchain applications at launch scale.


What You'll Do

As a Senior Backend Engineer, you’ll be:

  • Designing and shipping secure, versioned REST APIs (Node.js + TypeScript)
  • Modeling and operating our PostgreSQL schema (migrations, indexing, performance)
  • Building ingestion & normalization for multiple credit institutions (webhooks + scheduled pulls)
  • Implementing pool and loan status logic (allocation, utilization/WAM/WAIR, lifecycle history)
  • Adding idempotency, a transactional outbox, and lightweight eventing
  • Setting up monitoring & alerts (dashboards, SLOs)
  • Collaborating with the CTO to integrate backend flows with our blockchain services


What We're Looking For

  • 5+ years building production backends (ideally Node.js + TypeScript; other stacks welcome)
  • Strong SQL/Postgres fundamentals; confident with schema design and migrations
  • Proven API engineering: pagination, filtering, validation, auth, rate limits, safe retries
  • Experience with event-driven patterns (outbox, at-least-once delivery, idempotent consumers)
  • Solid cloud skills (GCP), Docker, and CI/CD; security hygiene (HMAC webhooks, secrets, RBAC)
  • Clear communication, ownership mindset, and a bias to ship


Nice-to-Have

  • Familiarity with ERC tokenization standards and on-chain data flows
  • GCP hands-on: Cloud Run, Cloud SQL, Pub/Sub, Secret Manager, Cloud Scheduler/Tasks
  • Exposure to viem/ethers (reading events, simple calls)
  • Observability (OpenTelemetry, dashboards/SLOs) and Terraform/IaC


What You'll Gain

  • A chance to contribute to a live launch in the European DeFi market
  • Real influence on architecture, reliability, and product direction
  • End-to-end tokenization exposure using ERC standards, from orchestration to on-chain issuance
  • High ownership in a small, senior team with fast feedback loops
