AAZZUR is a fast-growing, Berlin-based fintech company founded by an award-winning team. AAZZUR is innovating in next-generation embedded finance. We enable financial products for banks, Fintechs’ and nonfinancial services companies’. We build a platform that is connected to a growing number of financial product providers (bank accounts, cards, investment solutions, loans, insurances and value-added services) and deliver these services on a unified API-basis as well as via our embeddable front-end components. AAZZUR is the one-stop-shop for embedded finance.

We are looking for an experienced backend developer to contribute to and lead the development of modules, microservices and integrations of our API-based backend system that integrates with third-party financial services, standardises them, adds value-add features (e.g. data analysis to identify needs of customers) and delivers them via our developer portal or via APPs being developed by our front-end team.

You’ll be part of a highly-skilled, lean, and modern engineering team. We value transparency and trust. You’ll gain experience in the exploding fintech industry, as well as help influence the future of a dynamic start-up being listed no. 26 in the top 50 most innovative startups in Europe by TechRound. This role requires self-governance with the ability to deliver on time with quality and handle multiple tasks simultaneously. The work will be a mixture of general platform development and customer-driven platform enhancements. Excelling in this role provides the opportunity to grow into a Team Lead position at a later point.
