Senior Software Engineer

First Circle is one of the fastest growing fintechs in South-East Asia, providing financial services to under-served SMEs. We have already transformed access to credit for thousands of small businesses in the Philippines, and we are now building a full-stack Neobank that will include multi-currency bank accounts, payments, FX, corporate credit cards, payroll.

We are now hiring mid-level and senior developers to drive meaningful impact during our most ambitious year of growth to date.

Building in developing markets like the Philippines presents unique challenges, given the state of digital infrastructure. We are building virtually everything in-house, which is not easy, but its a lot of fun. We have a track record of solving seemingly impossible problems that defeated many other start-ups, and the opportunity ahead remains enormous.
