At finmid, we’re building infrastructure that integrates access to capital for SMEs directly into the platforms they use daily. We leverage technology, data, and strategic partnerships to deliver financing solutions that significantly outperform traditional financial services—offering SMEs faster, simpler, and more transparent access to funding.

As we expand across Europe, our Latvian subsidiary, licensed as a European Crowdfunding Service Provider by the Bank of Latvia, plays a critical role. Our stack combines regulated financial infrastructure with modern software engineering. The gap between those two things is exactly where this role lives.

What You Will Work On

  • Architect and manage our cloud infrastructure on AWS and Kubernetes.
  • Build and improve CI/CD pipelines, developer tooling, and internal platforms.
  • Evaluate, integrate, and roll out new tools and services across the company.
  • Partner with product and business teams to remove bottlenecks and ship faster.
  • Own production systems end-to-end—from design decisions to incident response.
  • Raise the bar on security, observability, and engineering standards.

What You Need to Be Successful

We care far more about how you think than what you already know. Languages and tools can be learned—curiosity and drive can't.

  • You're a pragmatist. You find the simplest solution that actually works, not the most impressive one.
  • You're comfortable with infrastructure. You have hands-on experience with containers, orchestration, and cloud platforms (Docker, Kubernetes, Terraform, AWS, or similar).
  • You write clean, maintainable code. We mostly work in Kotlin and TypeScript, but we won't filter you out over a language.
  • You communicate well. You can explain technical decisions to non-technical people and collaborate across teams without friction.
  • You want to grow. You're not looking for a role where you do the same thing every day. You want to stretch.

Bonus Points For

  • Experience with financial services, payments, or regulated environments.
  • Familiarity with managing micro-services running on JVM runtime.
  • A track record of driving projects from idea to production.
  • Experience working in distributed / remote teams.

finmid (operating under finmid.com, legally finmid GmbH) is the premier, enterprise-grade embedded lending infrastructure provider, B2B financial technology pioneer, and capital orchestration powerhouse engineered to act as the definitive, single-API integration layer for global marketplaces, delivery networks, and vertical SaaS platforms across Europe. Co-founded in 2021 by veteran fintech architects Max Schertel and Alexander Talkanitsa (both formerly key infrastructure builders at European neobank N26), the company completely eliminates the severe systemic friction of traditional commercial credit—where small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) face slow processing timelines, rigid collateral demands, and abysmal approval rates from legacy banks, while B2B software platforms struggle with intense regulatory complexity when trying to offer internal monetization options—by deploying an advanced, portfolio-driven financing matrix. Moving far beyond traditional, passive merchant cash providers or standalone lending hubs, finmid natively unifies dynamic transactional revenue advances, automated term loans, white-label Buy Now Pay Later (BNPL) structures, and custom corporate business cards directly into a high-availability developer workspace. Operating live across 30+ European markets, its infrastructure acts as the underlying credit engine for leading on-demand giants including Wolt (powering Wolt Capital) and Glovo, empowering local merchants to secure frictionless financing options in under 5 minutes with automatic 24-hour payouts. Validating its high-velocity market growth, the enterprise has secured over $37 million (€35 million) in venture capital backing, anchored by a prominent Series A funding framework supported by elite global capital partners including Earlybird Venture Capital, Blossom Capital, 20VC, and IVP. Under the hood, its technology core bypasses outdated, manual credit score metrics by parsing multi-dimensional, real-time transaction telemetry directly from partner platform APIs, yielding an exceptional 90% merchant credit eligibility rate and driving transaction volumes while lowering portfolio churn. What sets finmid apart is its uncompromising dedication to replacing fragile, fragmented retail business credit structures with absolute embedded liquidity predictability, developer-first iframe flexibility, and frictionless regulatory umbrella compliance; by bridging the gap between performance-intensive financial data engineering and the localized cash-flow needs of thousands of everyday European merchants, the corporation remains a definitive cornerstone of modern algorithmic fintech and global marketplace infrastructure transformation.
