Roles: Senior iOS Engineer · Product Manager · Gerente General - Colombia

If you're applying: If you are a Java backend engineer, nine roles in Krakow, London and New York share one stack; check whether the posting lists Java 25. Advisor roles need Native Portuguese for Brazil, or Spanish, Professional English and AMIB certification for Mexico. The company was DolarApp until its rebrand to ARQ.
If you're selling or recruiting: Engineering is the largest hiring area: 10 roles, mostly Java backend in London, Krakow and New York. Finance leadership hires are in São Paulo, with one controller role in Gibraltar; compliance and regulated-entity roles span São Paulo, Mexico City and Bogota. In-house recruiter roles in São Paulo and New York have been open since March and April 2026, so recruiting capacity may still be short.
