Job Description

Venn is revolutionizing business banking for Canadian entrepreneurs as the only digital banking platform in Canada offering truly modern solutions. Having recently secured a $21.5M Series A funding from Tier 1 investors, they're on a mission to disrupt traditional banking practices and provide innovative alternatives to business owners frustrated with big banks' monopoly.

As a Senior Backend Engineer at Venn, you'll be at the forefront of developing crucial financial services products from the ground up. Your role involves leading the development of features like transfers, cards, and lending solutions while ensuring robust production-ready systems. You'll work closely with cross-functional teams to understand customer pain points and implement solutions through banking partner integrations and third-party APIs.

The ideal candidate brings 6+ years of backend development experience, with at least 5 years of professional Java expertise. You should have a proven track record of building and scaling production-ready products from scratch. The role requires an entrepreneurial spirit and the ability to work independently in a fast-paced startup environment.

This is an exceptional opportunity to join a well-funded fintech startup at an early stage, with the chance to shape the future of business banking in Canada. The position offers competitive compensation and modern tech equipment, making it ideal for ambitious engineers who want to make a significant impact in the fintech space.
