Pennylane is building the financial OS (Operating System) for European SMEs. A single source of truth for financial data, used on one side by entrepreneurs to run their business (invoicing and getting paid, paying suppliers and expense management, piloting cash and profitability) and on the other side by their accountant for bookkeeping and fiscal declarations.

Saving time for all entrepreneurs and accountants, helping them to make the right decisions and enabling 3rd parties to offer added-value personalised financial services.

We’ve launched in France and will expand to other markets in Continental Europe in 2023. Our commercial website is thus in French only but the code is obviously documented in English and our tech team speaks English.

We’re product-led, growing fast, backed by strong investors and are starting to hire software engineers anywhere in Europe, to join our experienced remote-first engineering team.

🏠 Offices

The company's HQ are in Paris, but the whole Product team is remote-first. You are thus free to work from wherever you want in Europe.

🎯Your missions

In a nutshell: we are building the best financial management and accounting software for continental Europe and changing the life of entrepreneurs and accounting firms.

👪 Team and context

The Product Design team is integrated into the product entity, alongside Product Managers. You will be an integral part of the Product Design team (currently 18 people), with whom you will collaborate on daily basis.

In order to build balanced duo for our squads, we've made sure that our Product Design ratio to a number of Product Managers is 1:1.

✨ What's exciting about our project?

The vision: We want to change the life of thousands of entrepreneurs throughout Europe with our solution

The ambition: We are scaling at a very rapid pace and we want to become one of the fintech leaders within 2-3 years

The learning curve: We have great tech mentors and experienced engineers whom you can share with and learn from everyday

The product: Two years after its launch, our solution has received outstanding feedback from our users, and we still have so much to build and offer!

The environment: We do our best to develop a culture based on trust, autonomy, and benevolence so you can feel like you're in the right place
