Pomelo operates a card and payment infrastructure platform serving Latin American financial institutions. The tech stack reflects a mature, compliance-heavy ops posture: Splunk, Sentinel, Elasticsearch for observability; AWS, GCP, Azure for distributed deployment; and core services in Java, Go, and Kotlin. Active hiring across engineering, legal, and security—with security representing 22% of open roles—signals both regulatory scrutiny and a platform scaling from startup to operational rigor. Projects center on credit backend hardening, payment processor maturation, and RSOC buildout, while pain points cluster around legacy infrastructure migration and regulatory monitoring.
Pomelo provides technology for issuing and managing credit, debit, and prepaid card products across Latin America. Founded in 2021 and based in Buenos Aires, the company serves mid-market and enterprise financial institutions navigating local payment regulations. The platform handles core functions: credit underwriting and risk (credit core backend), real-time transaction processing (payment processor backend), and compliance reporting. Operational scale spans Argentina, Brazil, Colombia, Mexico, and the United States, with 201–500 employees. The company is actively scaling infrastructure to handle new product launches and regulatory compliance requirements across multiple jurisdictions.
