Union54 has developed a number of tools to propel African commerce forward. Our customers are financial technology companies across Africa. Together with our customers, we’ve issued millions of debit cards to African consumers from almost every country on the continent. Those cards have gone on to be used for hundreds of millions of dollars across different merchants from various industries and locations. In the process, we’ve helped our fintech customers earn revenue in the millions of dollars.
Building on the lessons learnt and feedback from our customers, we are developing our second product. We are looking for experienced developers with knowledge of functional programming languages such as Erlang, Clojure, Haskell, Scala and imperative languages like C, Java and Objective-C.
