About the role:

Salmon's tariff, cashback, and premium banking logic today lives split across the core banking system, individual front-ends, and separate product teams — you'll design and own the master system that unifies it.

What you'll do:

• Design the technical architecture for a single tariff master system, replacing logic currently split across the core banking system, front-end implementations, and individual product teams

• Own the Cashback and Tariffs Service stream end-to-end, from discovery to release, coordinating dependencies between the two services and the credit card, deposit, and premium banking teams they touch

• Work in close, daily collaboration with development, QA, and the team lead across the full delivery cycle — starting with migrating existing tariffs into the master system and designing the subscription entity

What you'll own:

• Own end-to-end systems analysis for the Cashback and Tariffs Service stream, from requirements gathering through release

• Define functional and non-functional requirements, API contracts, and integration specs for a system that will eventually underpin every product line

• Design the core entities behind the tariff master system, including how a subscription is modeled and how a tariff attaches to a customer

• Coordinate dependencies between Cashback and Tariffs Service and the teams building against them

• Maintain documentation in Confluence and hold the team to DOR/DOD standards

• Communicate status transparently, surfacing risk and delay before they become a surprise

What makes you a strong fit:

• Experience as a systems or business analyst in fintech or banking product teams

• Strong systems thinking and comfort with ambiguity — you can design a solution independently, not just execute a spec

• Experience designing API contracts and integration specifications

• Working experience with Agile/Scrum, Jira, and Confluence

• Comfortable owning a technical problem end-to-end, with high visibility on progress and without needing close direction

What we offer:

Ownership and flexibility

• Stock option plan — four-year vesting with a 25% cliff after the first year

• Fully remote work with core collaboration hours from 12:00 to 6:00 PM Manila time (UTC+8)

• Company-provided tools and equipment

Health and time off

• Medical insurance support for you and your family through co-funding or reimbursement, depending on your location and subject to policy limits

• Access to an internal mental health support specialist

• 22 vacation days, Philippine public holidays, and 15 sick days

Growth and team experience

• Opportunities to learn and share your expertise through internal expert meetups, external conferences, speaking opportunities, and industry publications

• Company-sponsored trips to Manila to meet and work with your team in person

• High-performing teams can earn a dedicated beach house week in Southeast Asia

We believe strong teams are built by people with different backgrounds, experiences, and points of view. Salmon is an equal opportunity employer, and we make hiring decisions based on skills, experience, and potential.
