Our Mission Reduce inequity by helping immigrants move money home by becoming the leading cross-border fintech for immigrants. The Team -> Founded by Harvard grads / 3rd-time founders also founded Segovia (successful exit) and GiveDirectly (>300M revenue, fastest-growing NGO). -> Top performers from top and varied organizations (e.g., Bain, Bolt, Google, McKinsey, SafeBoda, Uber, Zipline) we like moving fast, and we hire people that do as well. -> Driven by mission, guided by values (see below) – in deed, not just word. -> Team as global as the mission, >30 languages from 25 countries (i.e., if you’re interested in learning to make Chicken Moambe, we’re the place). About Us Taptap Send is backed by top VCs (Spark, Canaan, Reid Hoffman, Breyer Capital, etc.), rapidly growing and a great place for those looking for both impact and a fast-paced tech startup environment. Read more about the journey in Reid Hoffman’s words or TechCrunch article Launched in 2019, Taptap is tapping into a transformative shift in global finance: from banks to phones. While this has affected wealthier countries as well, it has been nothing short of a revolution for the emerging markets where the overwhelming majority of population had been unable to access digital finance previously. Its first product, Taptap Send, allows immigrants to send money home instantly and with no fee , saving money in the process. With a formal market size of >700B alone, we’ve got a lot more saving to do for our users. And that’s just the beginning . Our Investors Spark Capital, Canaan, Reid Hoffman, Breyer Capital (Jim Breyer), Unbound (Shravin Mittal), Wamda (Fadi Ghandour), Firstminute Capital, Slow Ventures (Sam Lessin), Helios Partners (Souleymane Ba), Crossbeam Ventures (Ali Hamed), Nikesh Arora, Samih Toukan, and many other context-specific angels We charge fees for transfers on fixed exchange rate corridors (e.g., XOF, XAF). The Role We are looking for a Senior Full Stack (React Native) Engineer to join our growing engineering team to define, build and iterate on features for our consumer-facing product. You will work closely with Product, Operations, Customer Support, Growth and other functions to design and build a reliable, intuitive, and simple experience for our users. As an early member of the team, we hope you will also have a lot of impact on our team culture, processes and norms. Taptap Send is a cross-platform mobile app developed with React Native and TypeScript, which talks to a backend service written in Kotlin and backed by a PostgreSQL database, all of which runs on AWS and is managed via Terraform and Ansible.

We’re an encouraging environment that values both teamwork and autonomy, and have many exciting upcoming challenges, including: scaling up to handle increased volume and complexity, improving UI and UX to drive growth and retention, building internal tools for our customer support and acquisition efforts, and much more!
