Description
About Incard
Incard’s mission is to build the financial operating system for entrepreneurs.
We are focused on creating a system where business banking, financial tools, and application logic are coordinated into a single control layer.
Through the app store, entrepreneurs and developers can build industry-specific functionality as their business evolves.
Our team is small, highly motivated, and focused on engineering excellence. We operate with a flat organizational structure. All employees are expected to be hands-on and to contribute directly to the company’s mission. Leadership is given to those who show initiative and consistently deliver excellence. All engineers are expected to have strong communication skills. They should be able to concisely and accurately share knowledge with their teammates.
Who We’re Looking For
We’re looking for Senior Backend Engineers to join our App Store & Ecosystem squad.
You’ll work on one of Incard’s most strategic bets: building a developer ecosystem around our platform. This includes designing and operating two core API catalogs — one for payments & money movement, and one for analytics, workflows, and automation — enabling partners, internal teams, and third-party developers to build on top of Incard.
This role is ideal for backend engineers who enjoy platform thinking, API design, and enabling other teams to move faster.
