- Solid understanding of relational databases and object-oriented fundamentals
- Skilled in test-driven and behaviour-driven development (TDD/BDD)
- Experience with CI/CD pipelines and modern development practices
- Strong collaboration skills and ability to partner effectively with QAs, Product, and SREs
- Excellent communication skills — able to explain complex ideas clearly and persuasively
- Fluent in English (our company’s working language)
- Experience in FinTech or the payments industry (a plus, but not required)
- A passion for delivering high-quality code and a mindset of continuous learning
