Job description

You'll support a French fintech platform that automates accounting and finance for SMEs: real bugs, real data, real business owners waiting for answers. In French.

  • Work with Postman, Slack and the support team to get to the root cause
  • Propose improvements to management based on the incidents you see
  • Join the company's ongoing training and development programmes

You're a fit if you have

  • Fluent French (it's the whole point)
  • English B2 (training is in English)
  • Working knowledge of MySQL/SQL, Postman, Slack and MS Office
  • Strong troubleshooting and ticket-handling skills
  • Clear written and spoken communication, customer focus, willingness to learn

What you get

  • Paid training: 12 working days, 8h/day, in English, €185.60 net/week
  • Health insurance from day one
  • 12-month fixed-term contract; permanent contract for employment beyond 2 years
  • 20 days holiday in year one (pro-rata), 22 days afterwards
  • Schedule: 40h/week, Mon–Fri, rotating shifts between 08:00 and 17:30
  • Two pay options (monthly, 22 working days, gross):

Why French speakers should apply

  • Your language is the filter. Few people combine native-level French with SQL and API troubleshooting. You skip the crowd.
  • Move to Portugal on a real job, with paid training and an optional housing package.
  • Learn fintech from the inside: how accounting software breaks and how it gets fixed.
  • Build technical skills (SQL, APIs, debugging) that carry over to QA, product, ops or engineering-adjacent roles.
