Our platform indexes over 4,000 products from more than 40 banks and financial service providers, providing objective comparisons and financial calculators for individuals and businesses seeking loans, savings, and bank accounts.

Our IT team consists of 11 experts, closely collaborating with over 70 colleagues from various fields (analysts, marketing experts, sales representatives, and consultants). Effective communication across different areas is essential for success.
The Challenge: We operate our IT systems on Amazon Web Services (AWS) using EKS (Elastic Kubernetes Service) and a microservices architecture. Our tech stack includes React, Typescript, MySQL, MongoDB, Java, Spring Boot, and WordPress.

Responsibilities: Design, develop, test, and deploy new features (APIs, services, model, and database layers) in existing microservices-based systems. Migrate and refactor existing Java backends (not based on Spring Boot) to Spring Boot in a live environment. Actively participate in the design, development, and maintenance of a new product and advisory registry system. Contribute to CI/CD standardization and automation efforts.
Qualifications: Minimum BSc. in Computer Science or related field. At least 3 years of experience as a software engineer. Proficiency in SQL, NoSQL, and Java, with hands-on experience in Java Spring Boot. Embrace the “What you build, you test, and own” mentality. Bonus points for experience in the banking or insurance industry, AWS/Kubernetes/Docker, or DevOps.
What We Offer: Flexible working hours (3 days in the office, 2 days remote). Modern, dog-friendly office with microkitchens. Support for specialized learning and workshops. Competitive base salary plus year-end performance-based bonus. Premium health insurance.
