Great people. Great team. Great opportunity. We are looking for highly motivated technical talent that will step up and have an impact, as our platform takes circa 1 billion API calls per month.
We are looking to hire extraordinary Software Engineers who have taken their career to testing, developing process automation and also building infrastructure resiliency & security. You will be developing automated tools and tests to continuously improve the efficiency of our software development process and the quality of the software we develop.
