Full-Stack Software Engineer (Mid-Senior), Typescript | Zenbase
O nabídce
About Zenbase Have you ever heard the term, that “it’s expensive to be poor”? We at Zenbase are a new generation of purpose-driven fintech companies, redesigning rent payments. We aim to improve the financial health of families who are “rent burdened” - spending more than 30% of their income on rent. In the US only, there are roughly 30M rent burdened households. When the budget is tight and they can’t pay the rent in full on the first, they pay between $50-$200 in late fees which totalled to more than $7B in 2022. This is primarily due to the mismatch between when rent is due and when people get paid: most people in North America get paid twice a month whereas rent is always due in full on the first day of the month making it harder to budget for. With Zenbase’s CustomRent and CreditBuilder products, we fix this misalignment by splitting our members' rent payments to match their income schedule, ensuring their rent is always paid on time. We also help build their credit with each rent payment giving them access to better financial products. After 24 months of operations, we managed to save around $1M of late fees for Zenbase members and our traction continues to accelerate. Our team is located around the world including New York, Vancouver, Calgary, Prague and Istanbul. Join us as we spread rent day bliss and become a rent day hero. The Opportunity Join an early stage team to shape the architecture and design of a next gen fintech platform that plans to scale from thousands to millions of users. Our mission is clear, but heavily depends on how well we execute. Any fintech platform must be robust and reliable. You will have the opportunity to build a fail proof system that delivers seamless operations at scale. The Work You will have a high level of freedom at designing and building services which interconnect multiple data sources, such as landlord PMS systems, banking interfaces, credit scoring bureaus, payroll providers and latest payment providers through their public APIs. We then provide backend services for both our internal needs and for customer-facing applications on the Web. As an early stage startup, we expect people to define their own role and assume ownership of a part of the system. You will understand the business inside out and become your own boss in terms of refining requirements and everyday work prioritization. About you
