- Build guides, checklists, and tooling to accelerate later programmes.

- Strong API and integration depth, including REST, webhooks, authentication, data mapping, and error handling.
- Production-quality code in at least one modern language.
- Experience taking a customer implementation from signature to live and coordinating people the candidate does not manage.
- Willingness to travel to partners across the company's markets.
- Fintech, lending, or payments integration; Android or mobile device management; and emerging-markets experience are bonuses.
Location and work arrangement
