Kontigo is seeking a Founding Engineer to join their team in building a USDC-Smart Neobank for Latinos. This role requires a founder mindset, as emphasized by the quote: "Men wanted for hazardous journey. Low wages, bitter cold, long hours of complete darkness. Safe return doubtful. Honour and recognition in event of success."

• React Native for app development
• Supabase, Firebase, and Prisma for database management
• Nest.js for WhatsApp integration
• OpenAI and Anthropic APIs for AI agents

As a Founding Engineer, you'll be working on a cutting-edge project that aims to provide a stable currency platform with global access, specifically tailored for the Latino community. This role offers an opportunity to make a significant impact in the fintech space and contribute to financial inclusion.

The position requires at least 3 years of experience and offers a competitive salary range of $40K - $120K, along with equity options of 0.50% - 2.50%. The work style is flexible, with options for remote work or being based in San Francisco.
