Engineering Manager / Senior Engineering in Belvo

We are Belvo, a financial API platform for Latam that enables any company or developer to access and interpret their end-users financial information. We are turning the rich and diverse Latam financial ecosystem into a set of developer-friendly tools and APIs.

We’re a highly technical, passionate, and driven team. We have offices in Barcelona, Mexico City, and São Paulo, and some of us work remotely.

We are tackling a very challenging problem: connecting fintech innovators with legacy financial infrastructure. We strive to go beyond the limits of what is possible today and do so in an elegant and developer-first way.

Our tech stack:

• We're building our platform using modern technologies, putting the focus on reliability and long-term maintainability.
• We primarily use Python on the backend. We use battle-tested technologies such as Django, and we are heavy users of Python's asyncio for some parts of our stack.
• We use Javascript, Vue.js, and Sass on the front end.

Your challenge:

We're looking for an Engineering Manager for the Data Enrichment team, which is applying data analysis and machine learning to enrich raw financial data with inferred information (for instance, income detection, expense detection, transaction categorization)

Belvo is an engineering-focused technology startup. We are creating a product that is seeing strong demand and market traction.

We put pragmatism and technical excellence at the heart of what we do. If you’re interested in knowing how we work, head over to our Blog to read more.
