Senior Backend Engineer

Yendo is a Series A startup focused on democratizing access to affordable credit. As a Senior Backend Engineer, you will collaborate with a small team to build and improve the product, enhancing customer experience and operational efficiency.

Responsibilities:

• Help with raising the bar! We strive to improve our customer experience, our hiring standards, and our engineering practices. As part of a small team, you can meaningfully contribute across all of these fronts
• Desire to work collaboratively. Engineers participate in the product development cycle from start to finish. We operate on the principle that the best products include input from our users and our engineering, product, and design teams
• Resiliency. We are not a “me too” product. This requires experimentation and grit to find solutions for our customers’ problems

Requirements:

• 5+ years of experience with backend or full stack solutions (e.g., Go (Preferred), TypeScript, Java, Python, or Ruby)
• Enjoy thinking about systems — their life cycles, edge cases, interactions, and failure modes
• Self-starter and able to work independently
• Passionate about financial inclusion and mobility
• Prefer experience with Postgres, Redis, and AWS, but not required
• Experience in fintech, payments, processing, card networks, banking, or early stage startup is helpful, but not required
