About Us

At Fonoa, we are transforming how digital-first companies stay tax compliant. We provide simple and modular API solutions that easily integrate into any existing workflow. Through our technology first approach, we reduce manual processes, increase compliance and reduce the cost of operations when transacting and scaling internationally.

We are solving one of the largest yet unsolved problems in global e-commerce. Our tax automation software enables companies such as Uber, Zoom, Booking.com, Squarespace and Rappi to expand their international offerings more quickly and stay tax compliant.

Job Summary

For you as an engineer, API documentation is probably an important part when considering a new career move. Thanks to the API docs, you can recognise how API works and how it is structured.

Please, visit our API documentation and learn more about our API endpoints and how to use them - https://docs.fonoa.com/.

Our Tech Stack

Fonoa has a suite of API products that automate tax-related workflows for any internet company. Check them out below:

• For backend, we use Node and Go
• For the frontend, we use ReactJS and Typescript
• For persistence, we use PostgreSQL
• We use Azure and GCP for our cloud services
• We manage our infrastructure with Terraform, Kubernetes CRDs, ArgoCD and DataDog.

Requirements for the Role

• You are fully proficient in English. Written and spoken, we are from around the world, but we work in English.
• You have a strong sense of ownership, care about what you build, and do the right thing that serves your customers.
• You’re a builder at heart; you like the opportunity of having tons of exposure, making things work for a company long term, and having an entrepreneurial attitude toward anything that comes your way.
• You are either eager to learn or comfortable scaling and operating large-scale microservices in high-growth environments.
• You are proficient in a couple of languages; most of our current codebase is in node.js with Typescript and Go on the backend. We use ReactJS on the front end, but we are not married to any tools; we see them as a means to an end.
• You like to keep your house tidy and clean, and you just can't leave code not covered with a test. Or a feature undelivered. Or dead code rotting in production.
• You ship fast, continuously, and iteratively, learning each step.
• You like to use data over opinions to make decisions. And are ok with finding the data yourself when it’s missing.
• You are comfortable with change, either in priorities, goals and deadlines. You see this more as an opportunity than a hurdle. You are also satisfied with challenging the status quo and pushing for change.
• You want to make a severe impact and are excited about working in a high-growth startup.

Note:

If you feel you don’t have the whole experience we’re looking for but feel you could be a bit fit and are willing to learn, do apply anyway! We are trying to build a diverse and inclusive team.
