About the company
Our core back end is written in PHP, plus we have microservices written in Golang. We’re also embarking on an exciting complete microservice architecture.

Mixing things up on Android? Our Android app is written in a mixture of Java and Kotlin, plus we're using RxJava and the most advanced libraries available.

For our iOS app, we’re developing in Swift and using Fastlane plus Testflyer for CI and CD.

Into the numbers game? Our Data Engineer is doing an amazing job day-to-day of data modeling and an event based data ingestion. We like to keep things in-house, and are working towards developing our own in-house machine learning-based fraud detection system. We're also using Snowplow, along with Python for our ETL.

The Curve DevOps team is looking after our Kubernetes platform, whilst developing internal monitoring tools.

Plus, a whole lot more… how does that stack up?
