Regional fintech and credit card issuer serving 9M+ users across Argentina and Latin America
Naranja X operates as Argentina's second-most-used financial app and primary credit card issuer, serving over 9 million users across 110+ branches. The tech foundation is AWS-native (Lambda, EKS, ECS, SQS, SNS, EventBridge, DynamoDB) with Node.js and TypeScript for core services, backed by Python, dbt, and Apache Airflow for data pipelines. Active adoption of vector databases (FAISS, Chroma) and Azure AI Search signals expansion into AI-driven credit risk and customer intelligence; simultaneously replacing Lambda suggests architectural shifts toward event-driven microservices.
