Financial product comparison platform for Central Europe
Bankmonitor operates a financial comparison and brokerage platform serving Hungary's retail banking market since 2012. The tech stack reflects a modernizing mid-market fintech: React + TypeScript frontend, Java + Spring Boot backend, containerized on AWS/GCP with MySQL/MongoDB persistence, dbt for analytics, and Kubernetes orchestration. Active project work on design systems, microservice integration, and frontend refactoring signals an engineering focus on platform stability and component reuse rather than rapid feature expansion.
Bankmonitor helps Hungarian consumers compare and purchase retail banking products—checking accounts, mortgages, personal loans, government-backed loans (CSOK, babaváró, zöld hitel)—through calculation tools and a broker platform. The product includes over 150 fees and conditions for standard checking accounts and 180+ variables for mortgage products, aggregated into searchable comparison calculators and underwriting tools. The company operates as Hungary's largest multi-agent financial intermediary by published 2022 net revenue, positioned as an independent advisory layer between consumer and bank rather than a bank itself. Sales, engineering, and marketing hiring is active, concentrated in Hungary.
React, TypeScript, Java, Spring Boot, AWS, GCP, MySQL, MongoDB, dbt, Kubernetes, Docker, and GitHub Actions. Frontend uses Tailwind CSS and Styled Components; testing via Vitest and Selenium.
Active projects include design system and UI component library development, frontend refactoring for performance, microservice feature integration, and cloud-native system enhancements. Focus is on modernizing architecture and pipeline reliability.
