Senior Backend Engineer, Founding Team

Company: Kulipa
Apply for the Senior Backend Engineer, Founding Team
Location: London
Job Description:

At Kulipa, our mission is to grow financial inclusivity and efficiency. Concretely, we issue stablecoin-powered debit cards, so that card payments work the way they should:

Why Join Kulipa

  • Merchants receive payment instantly – rather than multiple days later.
  • End users can pay with currencies or their choice, held in their own custody.
  • This is a big deal in developing markets such as LatAm where users want to shield themselves from local currency inflation, but are restricted by their local banking systems.

What You’ll Do

  • ️Build the foundation: Help define and develop the core backend systems that will underpin our product, connecting blockchain and fintech systems in novel ways.
  • Innovate: We operate a debit card for third-party non-custodial wallets. This has never been done before. You’ll be solving new problems, not rehashing existing solutions in a different form.
  • Work with customers: Get your hands dirty integrating our system for our first customers, seeing a full sales and deployment cycle.

Reward for Impact

  • Meaningful equity & competitive cash salaries
  • Unique work experience you won’t get elsewhere

What We’re Looking For

  • Technical expertise: Senior/staff engineering experience with a focus on creating scalable, resilient backend systems.
  • Proactive mindset: Sometimes we look for a long term solution, and sometimes a quick fix. You should have a “Can do” approach that identifies all options and makes the right call.

Excited by impact

Create a real change in the world that unleashes economic potential.
