Software Engineer

What You’ll Do

You will help build the next generation of how customers interface & apply for financing with Koalafi. While your primary focus will be on back-end services, you'll also contribute to front-end development when needed. You’ll develop in the latest technologies and help us move legacy systems to our cloud-based micro-service platform(s), all while focusing on improving the customer experience—making it faster, simpler, and easier to use. We want to deploy solutions early and often, find out what works, and what doesn't, being as efficient as possible, and helping the company grow along the way.
