Mobile remittance platform for immigrants sending money to Africa, Asia, and Latin America
Taptap Send operates a mobile-first remittance platform targeting immigrant communities across multiple corridors. The stack—React Native, TypeScript, Kotlin, PostgreSQL, AWS—reflects a mobile-first, cloud-native architecture built for reliability across regulated markets. Hiring is heavily weighted toward legal (10 roles) and engineering (6), with senior-level dominance and a Tax Lead in flight, signaling active market-entry and compliance scaling; the projects list confirms this focus: license applications for new markets, ongoing regulatory matters, and Nigeria-specific launches alongside technical debt reduction (performance monitoring, outage reduction).
