  • You develop responsive, accessible UI components in React with TypeScript and contribute to data visualisation for fraud analytics.
  • You work across the full stack, taking features from concept through to a polished user experience.

  • You collaborate closely with product, design, and engineering to deliver solutions that meet both technical and regulatory requirements.

What you bring:

  • Professional full-stack development experience in production environments (4+ years).
  • Strong Python skills, ideally with FastAPI or similar async frameworks, and comfortable with type annotations.
  • Experience with modern React (hooks, functional components) and TypeScript.
  • Solid understanding of RESTful API design, authentication patterns, and request validation.
  • A testing mindset: unit and integration testing across frontend and backend.
  • Hands-on experience with AI development tools (e.g. Claude, Cursor, Copilot) and genuine interest in integrating them into your workflow.
  • Comfort working in regulated environments (GDPR, financial services).
  • Strong communication skills and a collaborative, reliable working style.
  • Excellent English skills; German is welcome but not required.

Nice to have:

  • Docker and containerised development workflows.
  • GCP or equivalent cloud platform experience.
  • CI/CD pipeline experience (GitHub Actions preferred).
  • Financial services, RegTech, or regulated industry experience.
  • Data visualisation libraries (D3, Recharts, or similar).
  • Interest in cryptography or privacy-enhancing technologies.

 

Benefits

  • Meaningful work: Help prevent financial crime and strengthen trust in digital finance across Europe.
  • Growth: Work with cutting-edge technology: privacy-enhancing tech, secure multi-party computation, AI-native engineering.
  • Impact: Direct influence on product and architecture decisions in a small, growing team.
