Description

Africa is on the cusp of an economic revolution. While Internet- and banking penetration have come late to Africa, a youth-driven tidal wave of change is sweeping across the continent. As a result, both global businesses and local champions are in a race to unlock their potential.

In partnership with Rapyd, the fastest growing Fintech-as-a-Service platform, and Multichoice, the largest entertainment platform on the African continent, we are building a payments platform that is capable of meeting the ambitions of the next generation.

This is truly the Moment for Africa.

We are beginning to build our core engineering team that will own the payment network for Africa in Dubai. We are looking for dynamic, impactful, thoughtful, and hands-on contributors to build and deliver the integrated payment network to scale our platform across Africa.

As a full-stack engineer, you will exhibit both great back-end and front-end skills, and be driving the growth and scale of our African network.

  • At least 2 years development experience with React, Redux, Node.js
  • Demonstrated experience delivering scalable online payments solutions, both developing new solutions, and integrating best-in-class payment platforms built by others
