Who’s a Great FinBoxer:

At FinBox, we’re on the lookout for exceptional folks who are all about innovation and impact. If you’re excited to shake things up in the banking & financial services world, keep reading!

Creative Thinkers: If your brain is always bubbling with out-of-the-box ideas and wild solutions, you’re our kind of person. We love disruptors who challenge the norm and bring fresh perspectives to the table.

Customer Heroes: Our customers are our champions, and we need heroes who can understand their needs, deliver magical experiences, and go above and beyond to keep them happy.

Team Players: We believe in the power of “we.” If you thrive in a collaborative environment, value different viewpoints, and enjoy being part of a spirited, supportive team, you’ll fit right in.

What you'll do:

• Start with scoped tickets, then grow into owning features end to end.
• Lending journeys: multi-step borrower flows where one broken error state can cost a loan application.
• Monitoring dashboards: the tools lenders and internal teams use to track applications and loans.
• User management: roles, permissions and access control across lender products.
• The domain: how a loan moves from application to disbursal, and why regulation shapes the UI.

What we're looking for:

• React, deeply. You know why a component re-renders, where state belongs, and how hooks, props and lifted state fit together.
• The platform beneath React. TypeScript, JavaScript, semantic HTML, CSS and the DOM.
• How the web works. You can trace a request from browser to server and back (DNS, HTTP, APIs) and explain status codes, headers, cookies, CORS, caching and the event loop.
• AI as a working session, not a chat. You break a ticket down, give agents and subagents the right context, set acceptance criteria, and verify the output before trusting it. Customer data and secrets never go into a prompt.
• Debugging from first principles. When something breaks, you form a hypothesis and test it with DevTools, the network tab and stack traces, not by asking an AI "what's wrong?"
• Git and GitHub. Branches, rebases, conflicts and pull requests.
• Ownership and product sense: You question tickets, think about the borrower on the other side, and own what you ship, edge cases included. Incomplete information doesn't stall you; a mentor helps set direction.

Nice to have:

• Experience with the software development lifecycle, from requirement to release.
• Real code contributions to open source (not docs-only), or a serious project you can walk us through.
• Backend and database basics.
• Hands-on AWS.

What you'll get:

• Mentorship that sharpens your thinking. Senior engineers review your reasoning, not just your diff.
• Production from the start. Your code reaches real lenders and borrowers, behind code review.
• An AI-first team. Company-provided tooling like Claude Code, and engineers who build with agents daily.
• Fintech depth few internships offer. Learn how lending, risk and compliance shape product decisions.
