• Architect a highly concurrent multi‑sided marketplace capable of handling real‑time commission splits and high‑volume transactions securely.
• Recruit, structure, and scale a founding engineering team (Payments, Backend, iOS, Android).

• Deep technical background in fintech, payments infrastructure, or high‑volume transactional systems.
