About this job

Introduction

About the opportunity

You will work in the Financial Empowerment domain. Our goal is to empower everyone to achieve financial freedom and unlock their potential for a better life by providing N26 users with access to the money they need to achieve their life objectives, whether today (deposits or borrowing) or tomorrow (saving and investing).

Who we are

N26 has reimagined banking for today’s digital world. Technology and design empower everything we do and it’s how we are building the global banking platform the world loves to use.

We've eliminated physical branches, paperwork, and hidden fees for an elegant digital experience and supreme savings. Giving people the power to live and bank their way is what gets us out of bed in the morning and inspires the work that we do.

We are headquartered in Berlin with offices in multiple cities across Europe, including Vienna and Barcelona, and a 1,500-strong team of more than 80 nationalities.

In this role, you will:

Do discovery, design, develop, test, deploy and maintain software in a thriving environment.
Manage individual project priorities and deliverables whilst working in a team who enjoy knowledge sharing sessions.
Stay up to date with the latest trends in technology.
Propose new findings during our Get Stuff Done Days ( GSDD).

Your profile

What you need to be successful:

Experience in developing software using a JVM language and Spring Boot in large-scale production systems (note: experience of Kotlin would be a plus).

Sound understanding of microservice architecture.

Knowledge of both relational and non-relational databases, preferably Postgres.

Appreciation of working in a modern cloud architecture, preferably with AWS.

Strong bias for action, and getting things done.
Ongoing appreciation and consideration for security.
Motivation to write code which is well-tested and well-documented.
Give and receive open, direct and timely feedback.

What’s in it for you:

Accelerate your career growth by joining one of Europe’s most talked about disruptors .
Employee benefits that range from a competitive personal development budget, work from home budget, discounts to fitness & wellness memberships, language apps and public transportation.
As an N26 employee you will have access to a Premium subscription on your personal N26 bank account. As well as subscriptions for friends and family members.
Additional day of annual leave for each year of service.
A high degree of autonomy and access to cutting edge technologies - all while working with a friendly team of peers of diverse nationalities, experiences, and backgrounds.
A relocation package with visa support for those who need it.

Equal opportunities for all

At N26, we believe our strength lies in our people and the varied perspectives they bring. We strive to build diverse teams that drive innovation and business success. We actively seek talent from all backgrounds and welcome applications from all genders, cultures, sexual orientations, abilities, neurodiversities, and ages.
