Why Termii

Small team. Large impact.

Your work matters

There are no fake projects or internal-only tools. The code you write, the models you train, the products you design run in production, processing billions of signals for banks and fintechs across emerging markets and beyond. The impact is direct and immediate.

The problem is important

Predicting delivery success before a signal fires. Building fraud models that understand transaction behaviour. Making financial infrastructure reliable for millions of people. This is genuinely hard, genuinely important work.

Building for a global market

Emerging markets are where the hardest infrastructure problems are — and where the impact of solving them is greatest. Termii is designed from the ground up for these conditions, and the impact is felt by a global audience.

What we offer

Annual learning budget, conference attendance, and access to courses and certifications. We invest in your growth because your growth makes Termii better.

The hiring process

What to expect when you apply to Termii

Application review

We read every application. We're looking for clear evidence of craft, curiosity, and a track record of making things that work. Response within 5 business days.

Introductory call

30 minutes with a member of the hiring team. We want to understand what you've built, what you care about, and why Termii is the right next step for you.

Technical & skills round

A practical exercise relevant to the role — a short take-home or live session. We design these to be fair, respectful of your time, and genuinely reflective of the work.

Team interviews

Two conversations with people you'd work closely with. We assess for genuine technical depth, cultural alignment, and whether we'd both be excited to work together.
