Senior Software Engineer

About Basis Basis was founded by two entrepreneurs with a decade of experience in fintech.
While consumer fintech has come a long way during that time, business use cases have seen much less innovation.
For example, paying an invoice as a small business is still a tedious and manual process.
Filing an expense report still has you going back to your desktop more often than not.
And getting approved for a business loan or a credit card is still a document shuffling exercise.
Basis is here to change that, by providing entrepreneurs with the tools and infrastructure to develop first-class business-focused fintech products and services.
At Basis, our mission is to power the next generation of B2B financial services.
About the product The Basis product is a reinvented credit report for businesses: a passport which they can present to certify the financial health and fundamentals of their business, in order to access the financing and services they need to power their business.
The product has multiple interacting components, including: a cash flow profile, which provides historical and real-time analysis that business lenders use to inform their underwriting decisions an onboarding and information sharing UI, which developers embed into their workflows to guide businesses through creating Basis profiles, and connecting those profiles to developer applications a business-facing dashboard which provides business users with analysis of their own finances, and control over which services are connected to their profiles Our current roadmap involves completing and delivering these features to our early set of partners.
Future expansions will include connecting to more sources of business health and performance data, such as billing and invoicing systems.
