Fullstack Developer at Neenv Financial Technologies Pvt Ltd · Mumbai · 2 - 5 years · ₹8L - ₹10L / yr · Bootstrapped · Posted 6 Apr 2026

Software Engineer - Lending Platform
2 - 5 years Experience · Seed Stage · On-site preferred · Mumbai
What Neenv Is
Neenv is a fintech platform building channel finance infrastructure for MSME dealer networks in India. We sit between anchor companies and their dealer ecosystems, providing the credit technology layer while lending partners provide the capital.
The platform powers four supply chain finance products: Channel Financing, Working Capital Loans, Factoring, and Supplier Financing. The lending engine is configuration-driven. New products, rate changes, new anchors, new lenders -- config changes only.
What Problems Are We Solving
India runs on dealer networks. Hundreds of thousands of distributors, resellers, and stockists sit inside large corporate supply chains - buying from anchors, selling downstream, keeping markets liquid. These are creditworthy businesses. Their anchor relationships are essentially proof of cash flow. And yet they are chronically underfinanced.
Banks are too slow. Informal credit is expensive. The anchor relationship that makes a dealer viable is invisible to traditional lenders.
We are building the infrastructure to change that. A configuration-driven lending engine for channel finance - powering working capital credit to dealer networks at scale, with the anchor relationship as the underwriting signal.
Who You'll Be Working With
The founding team brings over 50 years of combined banking and channel finance experience. Founders with 25+ years each in client coverage, trade finance, risk management, and SCF sales across Standard Chartered and IDFC First Bank - having collectively managed over $1Bn in channel finance assets with sub-1% delinquency.
The CTO brings solid supply chain finance fintech experience with a product-first, AI-native approach to lending infrastructure.
You are not joining a first-time experiment. You are joining people who have spent careers building exactly what Neenv is now automating.
What Makes Your Role
We have a production lending infrastructure in place. It handles loan origination, repayment waterfalls, interest accrual, payment processing, ledger management, and multi-product configuration. You will own this platform end to end.
Understand the codebase end to end. Drive every config change, every extension, every integration. Be the person who can answer "can the system do X?" without waiting for anyone.
That is the first act.
The second act: we are building AI-native lending workflows. A credit decisioning agent that processes bureau reports, bank statements, GST data, and ITR. A collections agent that automates follow-up and escalation. Ops agents that handle accruals, month-end, lender reporting, and anomaly detection.
You will design this architecture from day one.
What Works Well Here
Someone who gets uncomfortable when they don't fully understand a system. Who reads error logs with curiosity. Who treats financial logic correctness as non-negotiable. Who can hold a product conversation and a technical conversation in the same breath.
If you have built something non-trivial and can explain every decision you made, that is the signal.
What You Need
- PHP and Laravel -- solid working proficiency
- Python -- working proficiency for AI agents, data processing, integrations
- SQL and relational database design -- financial data where a paisa-level rounding error is a production bug
- API design and third-party integration patterns -- REST, webhooks, handling flaky vendor APIs
- LLM and agent workflows -- curiosity or working familiarity. Strong signal if you have built with Claude, GPT, or any agent framework
- Fintech, NBFC, or any domain where data accuracy has real consequences
What We Are Offering
Fixed salary, competitive for early-stage fintech in Mumbai. Direct founder access. Ownership over a production lending system and the AI layer being built on top. For the right fit, a clear path to owning the entire technical stack as we scale.
We cannot offer a large team, defined career ladders, or a 500-person safety net. We can offer a genuinely hard problem, speed, and the chance to build something that matters from nearly the beginning.

About PortOne
PortOne is building the reconciliation and data intelligence layer for payments across Korea and international markets. We are a Series B startup backed by Softbank and Hanwa Capital, powering multi-billion dollars in annualised settlement volume for 2,000+ merchants across Korea, Thailand, Singapore, Indonesia, and beyond.
We are building AI-native products for leading brands — intelligent automation layers on top of complex financial data pipelines. If you want to work at the intersection of fintech, data engineering, and applied AI, this is your role.
Culture and Values
* You will be joining a team that stands for making a difference.
* You will be joining a culture that identifies more with Sports Teams rather than a 9 to 5 workplace.
* Your will have peers who are/have
** Highly Self Driven with A sense of purpose
** High Energy Levels - Building stuff is your sport
** Ownership - Solve customer problems end to end - Customer is your Boss
** Hunger to learn - Highly motivated to keep developing new tech skill sets
Your Work Ethic
* You are an athlete and building apps is your sport.
* Your passion drives you to learn and build stuff and not because your manager tells you to.
* You obsess over correctness — a bug in a settlement figure or a silent data drop is not acceptable to you.
* You have an eye for detail that most engineers skip past, and you take pride in getting it exactly right.
* Your work ethic is that of an athlete preparing for your next marathon. Your sport drives you and you like being in the zone.
* You are NOT a clockwatcher renting out your time, and NOT have an attitude of "I will do only what is asked for"
What will you do?
- Build and maintain financial data ingestion pipelines that pull settlement and transaction data from marketplace platforms (Amazon, Shopee, TikTok, Qoo10, Rakuten) on behalf of large brands operating across multiple Asian markets.
- Own reconciliation workflows end-to-end — from raw marketplace data to verified, merchant-ready settlement reports — ensuring every figure is correct and every discrepancy is surfaced, not swallowed.
- Design and implement AI-native features that automate financial analysis: agentic triage of settlement mismatches, root-cause detection across large transaction volumes, and intelligent alerting for ops and merchant teams.
- Instrument data quality and health monitoring so that silent failures — missing records, schema shifts, delayed ingestion — are caught before they reach the merchant.
- Build APIs and tooling that enable PortOne's ops and merchant success teams to investigate, verify, and close financial discrepancies faster and with more confidence.
- Expand platform coverage by integrating new marketplaces and new report types, working closely with data formats that are often inconsistent, undocumented, or changing without notice.
- Uphold rigorous engineering standards — correctness in financial data is not negotiable, and you treat edge cases and off-by-one errors with the same seriousness as a production incident.
- Uphold high engineering standards across codebases and processes.
- Collaborate with product, design, infrastructure, and operations stakeholders.
Skills and Experience
* Have ideally 2 to 4 Years of experience shipping high quality products/live features and workflows
* Strong backend engineering foundation — Go (Preferred), Python, or equivalent; REST/gRPC APIs; database design.
* Understands how to build scalable, resilient, and observable distributed systems.
* Must have built data flows and applications end to end taking full ownership
Preferred Skills and Background
*Prior experience/built apps in golang backend
*Data and data engineering background — comfortable with data pipelines, ETL/ELT patterns, event-driven architectures, reconciliation logic, or analytical workloads.
*AI-native development — you build products where AI is a first-class component, not a bolt-on.
*AI agentic development — experience building or working with agent frameworks, tool-use patterns, LLM orchestration, or automated reasoning pipelines.
