Full-stack (Frontend Leaning) Engineer

👋 Hi, we are nsave!

We are building trusted and safe accounts for the middle-class everywhere.

The problem

People in distressed & hyperinflated economies lose up to 90% of their money within a single year due to no fault of their own by simply having their money in the local currency. Even when they keep it in USD/EUR, local banks restrict access to it, or even worse, sometimes completely lose it.

The solution

💻 That's what nsave is doing. nsave helps people from such places save USD/EUR/GBP in Switzerland without requiring them to deposit millions or physically be present in Switzerland. Users can open a nsave account with a smartphone abstracting away all global banking complexity.

We raised from top VCs including YC, Sequoia and others.

What we're looking for

As a full stack developer with a frontend focus for nsave, you’ll play a huge role in shaping everything that our users see and interact with. While you will contribute across the stack, your highest priority will be building a visually appealing and intuitively usable frontend. Your attention to detail and ability to execute quickly are essential here. Your collaborative work with our designer and backend team will ensure our services are user-centric and seamless.

We expect you to have ownership over significant parts of the stack, and to be a leader on your own. It is your responsibility to get the help you need, and put in motion the projects you deem necessary.

We are looking for people who are not afraid to dive into things head-first.

Responsibilities

• 🎨 Design and Develop: Build visually appealing and user-friendly interfaces based on the designs. We expect the highest quality and the best UX for our products. You will be responsible for ensuring bot the UI and the API are built to cater for that.
• 🛠 Tech Stack Management: Using React Native and interacting with the backend built on Typescript, create and optimize functionalities that uplift user engagement and satisfaction.
• 🔄 Integration: Work closely with the backend team to ensure smooth integration of frontend with backend services. You need to either implement this yourself or get the necessary help from the rest of the team.
• 🚀 Prioritisation: Actively engage in our agile development process, responding quickly to new requirements and changing priorities. Be prepared to learn on the go and adapt to the dynamic nature of a fintech startup.

Qualifications

• Frontend Excellence: You should be able to build any UI or experience provided by our design team in a responsive and timely manner.
• Backend Familiarity: Knowledge of backend technologies (Node.js) and the ability to write some backend code.
• User-Centric Mindset: A strong inclination towards UX/UI design principles and crafting solutions that solve user problems elegantly and efficiently.
• Adaptability: Comfortable in a fast-paced environment, with the ability to pivot and adapt to changing business needs and technology landscapes.

In addition to the technical evaluation as part of the hiring process, we care about hiring candidates who fit into our values. This means that we will look for signs that you align well with these values as part of hiring.
