• Modern backend architecture and APIs
  
  

• Senior Backend Engineer or Backend Tech Lead

• Background in fintech or complex financial systems is a strong plus
• Experience as a Tech Lead or senior engineer in a fintech company is ideal
  
  

• Experience from fintech companies or large financial platforms
• Previous tech lead responsibilities
• Experience working on core systems rather than edge features

• Autonomy: Lead projects end-to-end in a fast-moving environment.
• Collaboration: Partner with top engineers and designers in Tel Aviv.
• Team culture: Collaborative, ambitious, and impact-driven.
