Overview
Valari is building a unified plaform to enable any tech company to offer a bank’s financial services to their end customers in LatAm. Our APIs, SDKs and Dashboards are the tools to manage the relationship between any tech company and a regulated bank.
Your contributions will sit at the core of our Program Management, Compliance and Fraud monitoring workflows. There are many technical challenges when building a fully compliant, user-friendly and integrated money movement platform at scale. We certainly hope this challenge is exciting for you. Also, as an early member of the engineering team, you will have the opportunity to learn how the culture of a startup is defined from its early days.
About Us
Valari is a technology company that operates in a highly fragmented market that is ripe for disruption. While in the US, there are more than 5000 banks, in Mexico there are less than 80 fully regulated banks. We have a partnership with a national chartered bank in Mexico, which allows us our customers to issue a bank’s debit, credit, investment and insurance products compliantly through our platform.
Our customers range from B2B software companies, marketplaces, neobanks and consumer applications. By partnering with Valari they can quickly launch embedded financial products such as bank accounts, cards, payments and lending to their users. Our customers own the user experience and have little regulatory overhead, while generating revenue for the transactions they initiate in our platform.
