Infrastructure Engineer (fmd) Mid-Senior Level AWS, Kubernetes

We co-founded and led Viafintech (Barzahlen) to 100 FTE one of the most successful German fintechs active in 17 markets across the EU and USA and sold it in 2021 for a three-digit million amount to NYSE-listed Paysafe Group.

Now were off to our next venture. This time were building a global champion for prepaid products : gift cards (Apple Amazon Google) airtime and eCash all in one simple API. Think of finperks as a stripe / adyen for all prepaid products and payments.

We started in summer 2025 and in just a few months we have already onboarded 700 brands and our first client goes live by the end of the year.

Many people completely underestimate the market size : about 600bn sold per year today going to 1.8tn by 2028.

Instead of 5 players in the chain (brand issuing tech provider global distributor local distributor client) we connect brands directly with clients via the finperks platform. Today 95% of prepaid is still sold in the Global North; we believe that for the gig economy to monetize the Global South prepaid will be key - from Netflix and Google to Apple and Uber.

Were a team of 8 in Berlin-Charlottenburg. A mix of our best people from the last journey and brilliant new joiners. High ownership. Low ego. Kind humans. We ship fast help each other and celebrate wins.

Join early. Help build the global champion for prepaid.
