About Teller

Teller is a banking API with a hard technical USP. Whilst other banking APIs screen scrape html pages, we reverse engineer banks apps to discover their secret API contracts and then implement clients for them. 

This approach means our API enables our customers to build applications that connect with their users’ bank accounts in a manner that is many more times reliable, predictable, performant, and fair than anything else available in the market.

We have a clear mission in a large and well established market and we are well funded having recently raised $4m from LightSpeed Venture Partners, Founders Fund and Max Levchin's SciFi VC. We are a small team of engineers with high quality standards that enjoy solving hard technical problems together. If that sounds appealing to you and you are searching for a meaningful mission where you can make a big impact then we want to hear from you.

The Product Engineer Role

Product Engineers are responsible for everything from building the dashboards, onboarding flows, and billing through to building the API itself and implementing new bank integrations alongside the Reverse Engineers on the Teller Red Team.

About you

• You thrive in environments that afford you with high levels of responsibility and autonomy.
• You hold yourself and those you work with to high standards.
• You want to fulfil your potential to its fullest, grow as a developer and as a person to be the best you that you can be.
• You don’t look for excuses for why something can’t be done, you are the person who finds the way it can be done.
• If a skill that you don’t possess is required to complete a task you’re the kind of person who goes off and learns enough to get it done.
• You behave like an owner. You take total responsibility for what you work on and think of the bigger picture like a product manager would.
• You are results oriented and have a strong distaste for shaving yaks.
• You are a persuasive communicator. You are both succinct and direct. You are clear about what you are doing, why, and what you expect of others.
• You have strong opinions, weakly held, and the humility to change your mind according to the evidence as it presents itself.
• You have experience of shipping production applications, ideally written in Elixir, Erlang, or another functional programming language. That said, programming languages are more easily learned than general software engineering ability, so we’re mostly interested in the latter.
