Tech Manager

Do you want to challenge the status quo and be a part of the disruptive innovation that’s changing the traditional banking services?

Would you like to work in an entrepreneurial environment yet have all the perks from being a part of the international media company ? If yes, then take the opportunity to join the FinTech superstar Lendo. Lendo has already established a strong position in the Nordics, and is now looking to grow in Europe and beyond. The newly acquired PSD2 license creates opportunities in Open banking, enabling us to further develop our value proposition and drive scalability in more markets. Our mission is to empower consumers across Europe to make smarter and more conscious financial decisions.

We're looking for Tech Managers to help us continue to grow our business and expand into new markets and new products. These positions are for heading up one, or potentially several, Lendo Tech market teams. A market team is a team consisting of both back and front-end engineers, building and enhancing the Lendo product into new or existing markets in Europe.

Our global technology team today consists of 50+ colleagues and consultants and are mainly located across Stockholm and Oslo. We use a modern technology stack such as Kubernetes, Docker, RabbitMQ, PostgreSQL and write microservices in Golang. You will work in a team closely with other leaders in Oslo and Stockholm, together delivering on the overall goal of the global Lendo Tech Function and supporting all our markets. You will also work close to the product and management team(s) in the markets you and your team(s) will work together with.

Please note that, due to summer holidays, we will be unable to process all applications before August. We will get back to you as soon as possible. Thank you for your understanding!
