Location: Atlanta, GA   |   Full-Time
AWS Lambda ECS Typescript Fintech Backend Back End Engineer
VIVA Finance is a Fintech Startup based in Atlanta, GA with the mission to build a more inclusive financial system. VIVA offers unsecured personal loans to customers who have traditionally been excluded and taken advantage of by the legacy financial institutions. The VIVA difference is to underwrite heavily on employment history and set up repayments through voluntary direct deposit payments from the borrower's paycheck. Our interest rates are less than 1/3 of the rates our customers are able to get from other financing options. The company is VC backed, has been in business for 6 years, and has been profitable for the past year. With a new debt facility closing at the end of June, VIVA will be dramatically ramping up origination volume in the second half of the year.

We are actively seeking an additional Back-End Developer to join our growing engineering team of 10. In this dynamic environment, you will be crucial in supporting the anticipated larger transaction volume and developing net new code to launch new products, thereby diversifying our revenue streams.

The ideal candidate will be a talented engineer capable of quickly adapting and contributing to a fast-paced startup environment. While our back-end tech stack is fully on AWS, utilizing Lambda and ECS for compute with Typescript as the primary language, direct experience with this specific stack is not a strict requirement. We value strong engineering fundamentals and problem-solving skills.

This role requires a preference for candidates who can come in office 4 days a week to our new office on the Atlanta Beltline, conveniently located next to Krog Street Market.
