About Caliza

Caliza is commercial banking infrastructure for companies that operate across borders. Most global businesses still piece together several banks, FX providers and spreadsheets to move money. Caliza replaces that with one platform and API: hold USD accounts, collect and pay in 33+ currencies, and convert between fiat and stablecoins, over local rails, SWIFT or stablecoins, in minutes instead of days. On top of that, we’re building the treasury layer: programmable accounts, approval policies, automated reconciliation and working capital, run by a customer’s finance team or their AI agents.

Our customers are importers, exporters, FX brokers, payment companies and fintechs across the Americas, Europe, Africa and Asia. We’re licensed and regulated across our core markets, and our team has built financial infrastructure at Visa, Nubank, EBANX, Flutterwave, Upstart, Intuit and Silicon Valley Bank.

Our backers

Initialized Capital, Better Tomorrow Ventures, Abstract Ventures, New Form Capital, QED Investors, Valor Capital and Quona Capital, along with the founders of Flutterwave, Chipper Cash, Rappi, Pomelo, Dock, Remesa Online and Anchorage.

About the role

Caliza moves money in real time across payment rails and countries. When our systems are down, our customers' money stops. That makes reliability, security and the ability to ship safely core to the business, not a back-office concern.

Good DevOps makes every other engineer faster and safer: you'll own the infrastructure we use to run, ship and monitor our software end to end, reporting to our security & infrastructure lead, who focuses on security while you drive DevOps. This isn't a role that only runs other people's code: you'll write and ship production code yourself, in our application services as well as our infrastructure, held to the same standards of review and testing as the rest of the team. Strong software engineering fundamentals matter as much here as infra experience: you should be comfortable reading and contributing to our codebase, not just the pipelines around it.

Location: Remote, with at least 4 hours of overlap with US Eastern time. Professional English required.
