Zalopay Tech Stack
Vietnam's leading fintech platform with 16M+ users and 100+ integrated services
Zalopay operates a diversified payment ecosystem serving over 16 million Vietnamese users across domestic and international transactions. The tech stack reveals a modern, frontend-heavy architecture (React, TypeScript, Next.js) paired with enterprise infrastructure (Kubernetes, Airflow, Spark), but the pain-point pattern shows friction in scaling: high-traffic payment systems, manual operation workflows, and frontend observability gaps. Adopting OpenTelemetry signals a push toward better visibility. The hiring mix—engineering and marketing leading, with deliberate AI and security roles—reflects a company pivoting from transaction volume toward operational automation and fraud prevention.
