About YOVO YOVO is building the next generation of payment infrastructure for digital entrepreneurs across Europe. We believe creators, educators, and modern online businesses deserve world-class tools that match the speed at which they operate. Traditional payment platforms weren't designed for this new ecosystem, so we've decided to create something entirely new. Founded in 2025, YOVO is developing a modern, modular checkout, subscription engine and wordclass product hosting, that makes selling digital products and services effortless. Our mission is to empower creators and digital businesses with the financial and operational infrastructure they need to scale, from frictionless payments to automated workflows and powerful analytics. We operate remote-first, with the option to work on-site in our Office in Budapest, one of Europe's fastest-growing hubs for tech talent. YOVO is backed by experienced founders, operators, and international angel investors supporting us on our path to reshape the European payments landscape. Role Summary We're looking for a Core Infrastructure Engineer who will build, scale, and maintain the foundational systems that power YOVO's checkout, subscription, and hosting platforms. You will work directly with our founding team and engineer to design robust architecture, drive critical infrastructure decisions, and build high-performance systems from zero to one. You'll ensure our systems remain reliable, secure, and high-performance, while building the tooling and infrastructure that allows the rest of the team to move quickly and safely. This includes designing and scaling all cloud components and related technologies.
