Small businesses are the backbone of the US economy, comprising almost half of the GDP and the private workforce. Yet, big banks don’t provide the access, assistance and modern tools that owners need to successfully grow their business.

We developed the first AI-powered bank accounts to help to save time and increase cash flow. Our unique product integrations enable easy access to tracking payments, transferring money internationally, managing business transactions and more. We’ve made a big impact in a short amount of time, helping thousands of organizations access powerfully simple business banking.
We are looking for a Senior DevOps Engineer who understands how to create and maintain cloud infrastructure, automating the management of complex service-oriented applications, and creating frameworks to ensure the security, stability, and scalability. If you're passionate about developing infrastructure platforms, tools, and software that support developers in shiping best in class products, then we want to chat. Are you ready to revolutionize the small business banking industry with us?
