Our Technology & Culture:
Using our deep collective domain experience, we have built our digital wealth platform completely in-house.
Our backend is a collection of 30+ microservices adhering to Domain Driven Design (DDD) and Event Sourcing principles that are written in Scala and are running in Kubernetes on AWS. On the frontend, to craft a superior customer experience, we use Flutter for our iOS/Android apps and React/TypeScript for our Web app. Our transactional data layer uses Cassandra and PostgreSQL while our data lake is built using Spark, Airflow, and Athena. We use Kafka for async communication between services. All of this is underpinned by a completely cloud native CI/CD platform that we have secured using industry leading zero-trust security practices.
We take pride in what we build and love shipping software every single day. Yes, every single day! In 2024, we averaged nearly a dozen production releases every working day!
