Who are Yapily

Why we exist, and where we’re headed:

Our Mission: Redefining how the world interacts with value.

Our Vision: A world without financial friction

Our Purpose: To empower everyone to access and move value

At Yapily, we’re building a powerful, scalable, and secure open banking infrastructure that redefines how the world interacts with value.

Our open banking platform powers leading companies, such as Adyen, Intuit QuickBooks, and Google. By delivering payment initiation, bank data access, and pre-built products, we enable businesses to innovate fast and push the boundaries of financial technology.

As an early pioneer of open banking, we’re actively shaping the future of this industry with unrivalled expertise and a relentless focus on innovation.

What we’re looking for

As we scale our business and prepare for accelerated product-led growth, we are looking for a proactive and experienced individual to take on a hybrid role that bridges project management and business analyst in a role we are calling Business Systems Analyst. Our immediate strategic focus is to extend our existing Open Banking PIS and AIS infrastructure to offer payment and settlement services. As a result of moving into the money flow and being EMI regulated, we will deliver and enhance a number of internal tools and platforms that support robust and efficient operating of the business. To this end, Yapily is looking for a dynamic, personable individual who can help design and implement the technology foundation that enables automation across client onboarding, FRAML, Regulatory Compliance and Treasury Management.

You will be experienced in designing solutions for financial services products in a fast moving environment and have exposure to products and tools used to manage Risk and Compliance, Business Operations and Treasury Management. You are highly collaborative and solutions focused. You are comfortable designing and implementing technology frameworks to support effective business operations across multiple functions.

You communicate effectively to promote an environment that truly understands the business and other benefits of effective operational excellence. You are results-oriented and energised by change. You will help to foster a collaborative and fun “can do” mindset across the teams you support.
