About Organisation:

The scale and impact of our work is massive. M-KOPA is a fast-growing Fin Tech company offering millions of underbanked customers across Africa access to life-enhancing products and services. From our roots as the pioneer in pay-as-you-go “PayGo’” solar energy for off grid homes, we have grown into one of the most advanced connected asset financing platforms in the world, empowering a broad range of customers to achieve progress in their lives.

Job Summary: We are looking for a Senior Backend Engineer to join our growing FinTech team at M-KOPA. Build sophisticated event-driven microservices that unlock financial inclusion across Africa.

Key Duties and Responsibilities:

At M-KOPA, you’ll build sophisticated event-driven microservices with real-world impact. Our engineering teams own their solutions end-to-end – from architecture decisions to production monitoring. Join us in combining cutting-edge .NET development with purpose-driven engineering that makes digital and financial inclusion possible across Africa.

Technical Environment

• Modern C# Stack: We use predominantly C# written against the latest .NET stack
• Microservices & Cloud: We favour microservices hosted on Azure using Kubernetes
• Event-Driven Architecture: We are constantly iterating towards a completely decoupled, event-driven architecture
• Mixed Environment: We have both legacy services and greenfield microservices
• Our Engineering Approach 🚀 As an engineer, you will work as a collaborator. More senior members will coach and contribute, placing an emphasis on:
• High quality output
• Observability and monitoring
• Automated testing in all environments, including production
• Infrastructure as code and DevOps practices

Qualifications, Skills and Experience:

• We expect you to be comfortable working as part of a team which owns the entire software stack, including supporting infrastructure, throughout the entire software lifecycle – from inception through production to decommissioning under a DevOps culture. You’ll value the constraints that continuous delivery places upon engineering processes and embrace testing and observability as first-order concerns in development.
• Required Experience:
• Strong grasp of C# .NET development
• Experience with Event-Driven Systems
• Microservices architecture experience
• Testing and deployment expertise
