Key skills for this role
We are hiring a Software Engineer - Backend to join the Funds Transfers team.
Join the team powering the financial heartbeat of Pliant. We own the fund flows logic that drives every money movement across the platform: from settlements and drawdowns to customer top-ups, pay-ins and billing before they ever touch external payment rails.
Our systems orchestrate issuer settlements, refinancing mechanisms, and complex liquidity flows across multiple markets, entities, and regulatory models. This is high-impact, high-scale engineering at the core of a fast-growing fintech, where precision, resilience, and smart execution directly shape how money moves for thousands of organizations. If you’re excited about building robust financial infrastructure that operates at scale and under real-world constraints, this is where you’ll make it matter.

Our modular, API-first platform helps businesses streamline spending, improve cash flow, and integrate payments into their financial workflows.
