Digital bank and lending platform for Peruvian SMEs and institutional investors
Prestamype is a financial services company building a digital bank for microenterprises and SMEs in Peru, with institutional backing from development finance organizations and regional VCs. The tech stack—Power BI, SQL, Python, AWS, MongoDB—sits atop heavy data, analytics, and conversion-optimization tooling (Mixpanel, VWO, Optimizely, Tableau, BigQuery), indicating an engineering and data-led approach to loan origination and investor matching. Sales and marketing hiring (combined 19 of 45 open roles) is outpacing engineering (5 roles), signaling a shift from product-building toward distribution and funnel optimization.
Prestamype operates a fintech platform that serves two customer bases: microenterprises and SMEs seeking loans (secured by mortgages, plus factoring and confirming products), and institutional investors placing capital into loan pools and private funds. The company is based in Lima and currently hires across Peru. Founded in 2017, it aims to become Peru's first digital bank focused on entrepreneur lending. The product roadmap centers on digital banking transformation, data warehouse implementation, and funnel optimization to accelerate loan origination and investor onboarding.
Prestamype uses Python, SQL, Node.js, and AWS for backend systems; MongoDB and MySQL for databases; Power BI, Tableau, Looker Studio, and BigQuery for analytics; and conversion tools like Mixpanel, Optimizely, and VWO for funnel optimization.
Prestamype is headquartered in Lima, Peru, and currently hires only within Peru.
