Senior Software Engineer

Description

We are a well-funded, early-stage fintech startup on a mission to guide the world’s money flows - often called Treasury. We work with some of the most exciting enterprises and are looking to add a Full-Stack Engineer to the team. Are you looking for an opportunity to work on both the frontend and backend, doing high impact work where you get to take ownership of important projects from day one? Are you based in Amsterdam or Stockholm and open to working mostly remote? Then we really want to talk to you!

About Palm engineering

Engineering at Palm today consists of a team of three engineers with diverse engineering and cultural backgrounds. We are located in Amsterdam and Stockholm, mostly working remotely with frequent gatherings in one of our locations or at off-sites where it is warmer and sunnier 🏖️

The engineering team has been working together since November 2023 so there is still a lot of opportunities for high impact work as well as playing an important role in further shaping the engineering organisation and culture.

Palm Engineering is defined by our principles:

1. Bias to Action: In the face of uncertainty, we prototype fast and often.
2. Open Communication: We courageously voice concerns to realign our direction as needed.
3. Passion for Challenges: We love the problem and embrace challenges.

In order to achieve this we lean on a culture of collaboration and knowledge sharing, where curiosity, respect and openness are some of our guiding principles. We truly value diversity and are happy to have our perspectives challenged. And of course, let’s have fun together!
