Backend Software Developer

As a Remote Software Developer at Tutuka you'll be working closely with the entire Product Development team to build enterprise-level, highly scalable, highly secure financial processing systems that power tens of millions of transactions and tie them to web, mobile and API interfaces that make it easy for people to issue, redeem and reconcile prepaid cards all over the world.

What you get to do:

We are not big on buzzwords. Right now we are heavy users of ColdFusion, SQL Server, JQuery, HTML5.

We also use Java, Ruby, React and Redis, however many of our developers come from programming backgrounds outside of our preferred stack (PHP, Python) and we like that.

As long as you can solve problems and are self-motivated, you can learn from our team and our team can learn from you.

Buzzwords aside, we are big on acronyms. Regardless of the stack, you'll be delving into the creative depths of EMV, NFC, HCE, HSMs, ISO-8583, MDES, P2M, MCBP, PINs, CVVs, 3DS, SUKs, JWT, BASE II, JPOS, MIP, DEX, TSMs, BINs, ICAs, TPP, PCI DSS, AML and KYC.

If these sound familiar to you already, or these are acronyms that would excite you, then you'll spend every day stimulated and challenged at Tutuka.

Let’s not forget to mention that we work to Agile principles of user stories, scrums and sprints.

What it takes to succeed:

Whether you're an experienced senior development lead or a mid-level genius, we're looking for people that make stuff work.

Above all, we are looking for developers...

• Who love to write great software
• Who are passionate about their craft
• Who are willing to learn, as well as coach

Let’s also not forget languages (not the programming kind); English is our company language so it’s important that you be able to communicate at a fluent level.

This is a contractor role open to candidates based in South East Asia, Latin America, (Eastern) Europe.

Flexible hours are a must for our remote team. You’ll need to be able to occasionally shift your work hours to a schedule aligned with Johannesburg, South Africa (GMT+2).

What you can look forward to:

At Tutuka we value making a difference to the lives of the people who work for us and who live in the communities where we operate. As values are important to us, you can look forward to working alongside fellow Tutukans, who share these values. You’ll be part of a team that is passionate about making a difference on a global scale.
