Job description

Zepz powers two leading global remittance brands, WorldRemit and Sendwave, to build the next generation of cross-border payments. Serving over 9 million customers across 4,000 corridors, Zepz is transforming how money moves across borders by making it faster, safer and more convenient. Its innovative digital solutions are designed to break down financial barriers and expand access to better financial tools. Zepz operates across a broad global footprint, connecting the global north and south and enabling migrants to support loved ones, fuel local economies and build better futures.

About the role : At Zepz, our engineers are passionate about delivering a solid customer experience and are eager to contribute to the product, regardless of their tech stack. We are seeking engaged and customer-focused engineers who are committed to writing quality code and dedicated to their contributions at Zepz. We value individuals who are adaptable to a wide range of problems and challenges and can collaborate across teams to drive improvements.

As a senior software engineer, you will work within cross-functional feature teams, which are part of broader engineering domains. You will have the autonomy to make platform decisions and provide insights to the rest of the team. You'll collaborate closely with other frontend, backend and fullstack engineers of varying experience levels and interests, helping to improve and develop our apps, backend services, build pipeline, and tooling. You'll be committing, reviewing, and shipping new code from your very first week!

What you bring to the table :

Technical skills

  • Experience with React Native Mobile development
  • Must have some experience building backend services at scale using different tech stacks
  • Strong understanding of modern development frameworks centered around Spring, Python, TypeScript, NodeJS, ReactNative, Android Native and iOS Native.
  • Proficiency in one of more programming languages out of Java, Kotlin, Typescript, Swift
  • Ability to work with AI in a safe structured environment.
  • Ability to work with tools like Grafana and Loki for debugging and fault finding.
  • Understanding of Bitrise, Firebase, Kubernetes, ArgoCD, AWS cloud and Terraform.

Technical Execution

  • You take pride in writing readable, well-designed, and well-tested software.
  • You will improve code structure, have an impact on architecture,
  • You will actively review tech designs and code from others.
  • You'll improve monitoring, and health of your team's systems.
  • You'll build relationships with other engineering teams and identify collaboration opportunities.
  • You'll own larger pieces of work, assist with design and technical / implementation choices and influence the roadmap within your team
  • You easily communicate with non-technical team members, and can translate their feedback into code.
  • You have experience working in a cross-functional team
  • You adjust quickly and effectively to shifting priorities and complexity.
  • Customer Obsession

  • Care about users, and want to give them an improved, simpler experience.
  • Are more of a “get it done” than a “perfectionist” type person — you value getting features into the hands of our users.
  • Aren’t afraid to throw away code you wrote - because after testing, a flow you built doesn’t work as well as a different one.
  • What you’ll get from us

    Please note that the benefits below will apply to permanent roles.

    We have five core benefits for our talent in the US, UK, Philippines, Poland, and South Africa. specifically :

  • Unlimited Annual Leave : Feel free to make the most of your time off and maintain a healthy work-life balance!
  • Private Medical Cover : You can opt-in to a Private Medical Insurance scheme. This provides you with access to thorough medical coverage, so you can feel confident in your health and well-being.
  • Retirement : We offer pension schemes to help you plan for and secure your future.
  • Life Assurance : Life assurance is available to give you peace of mind and protect your loved ones in case of the unexpected.
  • Parental Leave : We offer competitive parental leave schemes to ensure you are spending as much quality time with your new bundle of joy as possible.
  • We are also remote-first as an organisation, offering flexibility for you to work where you need to be most productive. In addition to the above, you will discover that we have a range of secondary perks (such as the cycle-to-work scheme and employee discounts) depending on your location, to help you thrive at Zepz!

    Why choose Zepz?

  • Our team of over 800 employees is fully distributed across the world. We are working from coffee shops, homes, and co-working spaces — making us one of the larger fully distributed growth-stage startups in the world but we also offer workspace in our talent cluster locations - spaces we can meet, collaborate and connect.
  • We are proud parents, community organizers, farmers, band members, yoga teachers, YouTube influencers, former Olympians, and serial entrepreneurs.
  • We collectively speak over twenty languages, including Akuapem, Amharic, Bengali, Ewe, Fante, Ga, Igbo, Kalenjin, Luganda, Oromo, Somali, Swahili, Wolof, Bulgarian, Croatian, Czech, Danish, Dutch, English, Estonian, Finnish, French, German, Greek, Hungarian, Irish, Italian, Latvian, Lithuanian, Maltese, Polish, Portuguese, Romanian, Slovak, Slovenian, Spanish and Swedish.
  • At Zepz, embodying our commitments binds us together. We are collectively passionate about striving to achieve our vision and purpose - to continue to provide the best service to our users.
  • Ready to Apply?

    Applications will be reviewed on a rolling basis. If interested, please submit your resume along with a cover letter (optional), highlighting why your experience demonstrates you meet the requirements of the role. Please also indicate the countries in which you have work authorization.

    Confidence can sometimes hold us back from applying for a job. But we'll let you in on a secret : there's no such thing as a 'perfect' candidate. Zepz is a place where everyone can thrive.

    So however you identify and whatever background you bring with you, and if at all you might need any form of support to make the process as comfortable as possible, please let us know and give us a shot by applying. We want you to be excited to wake up to make an impact every day.
