Fintech Data/Backend Engineer - Finthos (Zurich, Hybrid)

## ABOUT FINTHOS Finthos is an AI Operating System for family offices managing $100M–$5B+ AUM. We're replacing spreadsheets and fragmented reporting with a unified, intelligent data layer; connecting custodian feeds, normalising multi-asset positions, and powering AI-driven portfolio insights and deal intelligence. We're a founder-led team operating across Zurich, Berlin, and San Francisco, building on Azure and integrating with Swiss and European banking infrastructure. We have active regulatory sandbox access with SIX Group, DIFC and QDB, and a roadmap spanning Swiss, European, GCC, and US markets.
