Over ons

In 2013 I closed my travelling agency and went for a long journey in Western Europe. At the same time I was looking for an interesting project and came across an add by a finance startup looking for developers. I applied for this role and received a test task which I have successfully completed. After an interview, I was hired as one of the developers at EXANTE.

For my time-being here I worked on many projects: from small services to widescale products, taking on different roles in teams. Starting with an ordinary developer I was very much interested in the company’s business and infrastructure. Soon I became a technical supervisor of big projects like product development for retail clients and institutional partners. I took on roles of developer, business analyst and technical manager in those projects. Versatile involvement in those projects enabled me to truly understand our product from both technical and business perspectives.

EXANTE has always been open to innovations. In 2017 I got into the team actively working on cryptocurrency products, getting an invaluable insight into the emerging industry. The number of tasks related to the research of new approaches and technologies in fintech was constantly growing, and it became obvious to me that the company was in need of a special team to quickly and efficiently address new challenges.

So, in the fall of 2017, after discussion with the board of directors, the R&D EXANTE division, called Exantech, was formed. Its key task was to research and develop new solutions as well as promote our brand among developers. I was asked to lead the team. Exantech is now known among developers and users of blockchain services for its technical reports and products. Our representatives speak at specialized conferences, a venture fund was launched within the division, which has invested in several blockchain projects. The team is constantly working on new services and shares its expertise with developers of other products in the company.

We have many plans for the future because the financial market is constantly evolving and we must not only keep up with the development but also outrun it. I hope that thanks to the experience and knowledge gained over the years in EXANTE, and with the help of excellent and experienced colleagues, all these plans will be realized.

After finishing Master’s degree in Finance, I spent a few years working in the industry back home in Spain. At that time, I was also looking for a company with a fast-growing international environment, and one day I came across EXANTE. Luckily, I found a position suitable for me and joined the team.

By now I have been working here for four years, and I can say that this company exceeded all my expectations on many levels. I was able to move from performing the simplest duties to be the person that oversees all financial operations at the company. Of course, this was not easy and would be impossible without the support of my high-skilled colleagues, and our audit partners at KPMG.

I am genuinely thankful for all the opportunities and chances that EXANTE gave me through all of these years. I am sure that more is yet to come.

I think anyone would love a job, where you can learn, grow, advance in your career and also travel. It was my dream to find such a place and I did – in EXANTE. I started from an entry-level position in the customer support department. Many people look down at such work, but I gained unique experience and learned to communicate with clients from different countries. I then got a promotion to a sales manager. I learned how to set goals and how to reach them. I now work in the marketing division of our company. This job combines everything I think a great job should have: I get to communicate with lots of people, I get to be creative and I get to travel for work to many amazing places. Just came back from New York, by the way!

I joined EXANTE as a technical support engineer while being a second-year student at uni. From the first day, I have been surrounded by highly professional people, from a linear engineer to the board of directors. It was a bit challenging at first, as I was not very much familiar with the market for investment and finance, but this passed by quite fast.

After working here for two years, I felt the need for a change. I left the company and worked as a developer for another company. After six months returned to EXANTE as a QA.

I remember how absorbed I was by this new role. I would go back home in the morning after dealing with challenging and exciting tasks whole night. My dedication has not remained unnoticed. After two years I was promoted to the supervisor of the QA department and, eventually, I became the IT Director.

I have been with EXANTE for almost 4 years. I started as Back Office Executive and after a year the company gave me an opportunity to demonstrate my value and skills in marketing which was my field of studies at the university.

Currently, I’m PR and Marketing Manager at EXANTE. Meeting the company’s high expectations I managed to develop a wide business network in the financial sector and publish articles in the top Finance and Fintech media across the globe.

I want to continue my professional growth together with the big EXANTE family. It’s a sparkling and vibrant working environment where you may face new challenges and find new opportunities every day, thus improving your own skills and contributing to EXANTE’s success.

Nobel laureate Andrei Sakharov once said: ‘The purpose of life is expansion’. In corporate history, like in a human life, comes a time when it’s crucial to make decisions. This was exactly the time when I joined EXANTE.

The EXANTE management entrusted me to perform dramatic changes in the company’s operations, ensure strategic flexibility and the highest quality of service across the globe. The board appreciated my decades-long experience in high-scale projects: corporate development and transformation, enterprise efficiency improvement, launch and maintenance of management systems.

Justifying the board’s confidence, the highly professional team under my supervision has consistently developed an optimised management framework, boosted sales volumes and powered the global EXANTE expansion.
