- About the company
- When it comes to saving or making investment decisions, different companies usually provide advice focusing on specific (different) items for the same individual. This is like having a silo mentality, and individuals rarely receive comprehensive solutions.
This company’s vision, taking advantage of the growing FinTech sector, is to provide the best saving-investment solutions for individuals considering their entire lifespan. They are working on providing comprehensive solutions than can really maximize value for individuals, making use of automation that can suggest the best possible choices. Currently, the company is still serving financial institutions as main clients, but their goal is to provide these services and help to as many people as possible.
The company is looking for innovative engineers to join their team and grow the business with them.
Those who can bring creative solutions, technical expertise and an innovative mindset are very welcome.
Given their platform's stage of development, there is plenty of room for you to develop and implement your great ideas, as the company welcomes those with startup mindsets.
Compared to other FinTech companies, one of the great strengths of this company is that they combine financial expertise with AI. Other companies focus merely on AI, lacking sufficient financial background. The CEO himself is an expert in finance and a proven successful entrepreneur who already created two companies before.
The company has a partner in Taiwan and is currently working on expanding their business overseas, to countries such as China and in other parts of Asia.

The company does not have a complete division of labor.
They are a "cross-functional team," where each person has their own area of expertise and is also involved in other areas.
There is a main person in charge of the API, client, and front-end, but everyone is responsible for implementing all areas.
Since the company is a small group, they haven't fully established a company culture yet, and you will be able to contribute to building it. At the moment, the company is emphasizing that "we don't take orders from the top, but give feedback to each other regardless of company history or age."
The same goes for PullRequest reviews.
