We are looking for a Software Engineer (Backend/Full-stack) to develop scalable, high-performance financial solutions that streamline business payments. You'll own critical product capabilities, collaborate cross-functionally, and deliver high-quality software in a fast-paced fintech startup backed by top investors.

Who is Adfin?

We were founded in April 2024 by an A-class team that has already built multi-billion businesses in banking and payments, and are backed by the best tech investors in Europe (Index Ventures, Visionaries Club, and some very successful fintech CEOs and founders). Our early performance has been strong and so the team is starting to expand.

What’s the problem we are solving?

Most businesses, regardless of size or sector, struggle to get paid on time. Chasing late invoices is time-consuming, managing the process is expensive, and the tools available today make it much harder than it needs to be.

Where are we heading?

It’s not just getting paid that’s hard. Making payments, managing cashflow, and keeping on top of bank accounts, accounting, and reporting are all time-consuming and expensive. We will harness the huge opportunity AI offers to streamline all financial operations for businesses.

What are we looking for?

We're looking for someone to:

• Design, build, delivery and operate new capabilities and enhancements
• Be part of cross-functional squads engaged to deliver the project on time, at a very high level of quality
• Own a set of critical modukes in Adfin, such as Agentic workflows, Payments, Integrations or other areas.
• Ensure great customer experience by taking the on-call shift rotation (usually 1 week every 2 months)
• Work in a fast paced environment and grow your skills (tech and soft) super fast, every week
• Understand how a business operates by collaborating closely with each function in the organisation, such as product, design, sales, support, marketing

Who are we looking for?

Our team is our superpower and we hire only the very best. There is no right or wrong candidate, but from our experience you are likely to have:

• 5+ years of experience in backend development (Java) at a tech-forward, product-driven company
• Great software design skills. Amazing at designing the most high performant, scalable and maintainable software solutions
• End-to-end ownership. Ability to thrive on a high level of ambiguity, autonomy and responsibility. At Adfin we believe strongly in full ownership: from ideation, development, full, testing, releases and operations
• Quality first mindset, including experience in automating tests
• Keen to grow and learn for the long term with a talented group of fellow fintech leaders - and be there at the beginning of the next major payments success story

What is the hiring process?

We try and move fast with hiring whilst giving you and us the chance to make a proper assessment:

• Initial intros to ensure this is right on both sides (30 mins)
• Technical interview (2 x 1h)
  
  • Problem solving mindset - live coding in your favourite programming language
  • Architecture - live design (build diagrams, flows) for a complex problem
• Final board interview (30 mins)
• References check on both end - we reference you, you reference us

We always give feedback and try to be as respectful of your time as possible.

What will an offer look like?

• Competitive salary: we pay what it takes to get the best people, but of course at first you can probably earn more in a corporate (but you’ll learn 5% as much and have 1% as much fun!).
• ‍Equity: everyone at Adfin has meaningful equity, and on terms which are generally more favourable than most startups, which we can discuss with you.‍
• Office: we value face-to-face collaboration. We are flexible but we expect you to spend a portion (2-3 days) of our time in the office at Aria (near Palas Campus)
