About Rafiki: 🐒
Rafiki is a finanical operating system built for agencies, contractors, and subcontracting as a workflow.
Agencies and flexible teams collaborate across borders, but invoicing and subcontractor payments remain manual and error-prone. Rafiki automates invoices from billable work, unifies everyone into one project flow and pays contributors from single payments.
Built on a combination of stablecoin/fiat/open banking rails, we orchestrate subcontracting and collaborative workflows and the assoicated flow of funds, intra and across borders.
The Role: 👩💻
We’re looking for a hands-on Senior Engineer to join early and help us build out the next iterations of our core product. You’ll work closely with our CTO and founding team, helping shape both the tech and the product as we scale.
You’ll need to be confident working across integrations, especially where payments meet operations:
Mobile money, crypto wallets (USDC), WhatsApp, Slack, Open Banking, and embedded APIs. If you’ve worked in or near payments, banking, or invoicing, even better.
The Stack: 🔨
Frontend: SolidJS/TypeScript/Tailwind Backend: .NET 8/C#
You’ll be doing things like:
Building and shipping full-stack features across frontend (SolidJS/TypeScript/Tailwind) and backend (.NET 8 / C#) Helping us move fast, with testing and clean code Onboarding & mentoring additional teammates and supporting best practices Collaborating directly with the founding team on how the product evolves - we’ve got a clear roadmap of integrations.
What we’re looking for: 🔍
Strong full-stack experience and comfort leading projects Strong backend skills in .NET (C#) and frontend in modern JS (React/SolidJS). We value candidates who have experience with a range of tech stacks, even if not extensive, as this helps provide a broader perspective on both frameworks and the underlying web technologies. You’ll be tested on this through various tests, conversations, and live pair programming sessions. Familiar with automated testing and iterative development, including test-driven development (TDD) and behaviour-driven development (BDD) practices. Bonus if you’ve worked on financial or workflow-heavy products
Why join us? 🌱
Early product, big market, strong traction Young, energetic, hungry team Product ownership, real user feedback, zero fluff Backed by great partners
