About the Role

We’re a fintech company building financial infrastructure that touches real money, real accounts, and real users across multiple markets. Our product surface includes banking integrations, payment flows, and data-intensive dashboards — the kind of work where bugs have consequences and architecture decisions compound over time.

We’re looking for a senior full-stack developer who can own features end-to-end, make sound technical decisions independently, and deliver production-ready code — without needing hand-holding or weekly check-ins to stay on track.

This is a long-term remote engagement (6+ months). If you’re looking for a short sprint or a quick gig, this isn’t the right fit.

What You’ll Work On

• Building and maintaining full-stack features in Next.js (App Router) and TypeScript

• Designing and consuming RESTful APIs for financial data — rates, transactions, balances, account flows

• Implementing secure, performant UI components and data-fetching layers

• Collaborating async-first with a lean team on a product that needs to scale reliably

• Participating in architecture and code review with a high bar for clarity and maintainability

What We’re Looking For

Must-have:

• 4+ years of professional full-stack experience

• Deep, hands-on experience with Next.js (App Router preferred) and TypeScript

• Strong backend fundamentals — Node.js, Express or equivalent, SQL/PostgreSQL

• Experience building or integrating financial or regulated APIs (banking, payments, credit)

• Proven ability to work autonomously: you manage your own time, flag blockers early, and don’t wait to be told what to do

• Clean code mindset — you write for maintainability, not just to ship

Nice-to-have:

• Experience with real-time data, WebSockets, or event-driven architectures

• Familiarity with Kafka, Redis, or message queues in a production context

• Background in African financial markets (mobile money, USSD, local payment rails)

• Docker and containerized deployment experience
