- Final-year student or graduate within the last 12 months in Computer Science, Software Engineering, or a related field

- Working proficiency in at least one language such as Java, C++, Python, or similar
- A grasp of the fundamentals: version control, testing, and debugging
- Something you've built outside coursework: a side project, hackathon entry, open-source contribution, or previous internship.
- Problem-solving you can articulate. You can walk us through how you broke a hard problem down
- Clear written communication. You can explain what you built and why you built it that way
- Independence, plus the judgment to ask for help rather than stay stuck
NB. While we think the above experience could be important, we’re keen to hear from people that believe they have valuable experience to bring to the role. If you identify with the team and mission, but not all of our requirements, then please still apply!!
WHY JOIN US?
We’re building the financial infrastructure for MENA. Not as a slogan, as a fact.
Since 2019, we’ve become the first regulated Open Banking and Open Finance company operating across the UAE and Saudi Arabia. We’ve processed billions of dollars. We connect millions of accounts. We enable companies like Binance, Careem, and Etisalat to build products that were previously impossible in this region.
Our recent $67.5M Series B from General Catalyst and Sequoia isn’t just validation: it’s fuel. We’re expanding into new markets, launching new products, and setting the pace for what financial innovation looks like in MENA.
We solve hard problems. We move fast. We hold ourselves to a high standard. And we’re looking for people who’ve done this before to help us do it right.
If you’re motivated by building something that lasts, not just something that scales, Lean is where you need to be.
Not only do we offer competitive salaries, private healthcare, and flexible office hours, but we also insist that every member of the team hold a meaningful equity stake in the business to ensure long-term alignment. We'd love you to join us for this journey!
