Helping a major FinTech to scale
Tide is the leading provider of UK SME business accounts and one of the fastest-growing FinTechs in the UK. With a 10% SME market share in the UK and now launched in India, Tide is transforming the business banking market.
Tech stack:
Java, Spring Boot, Python, Flutter, Kubernetes, AWS
The problem
Tide needed to quickly scale their engineering teams to support accelerated growth and international expansion, while ensuring the high standards of technical ability and domain knowledge that are required to allow newly onboarded Architus engineers to seamlessly integrate and collaborate with existing Tide teams
Our approach
Architus created a 4-stage screening process, which included a final interview conducted by Tide who were able to approve or reject any candidates. Focusing on strong technical skills, Fintech domain experience, and a close cultural fit with Tide, Architus hired 30 Backend and Frontend Engineers who are now fully dedicated to Tide’s technology group, developing the payments, open banking and credit modules of Tide’s digital banking platform

"Architus has provided Tide with a whole layer of highly qualified engineers that work hand-in-hand with Tide’s own developers. They have made an enormous contribution to our global platform, with leadership roles mixed in with strong developers that have integrated smoothly with Tide and have been great team mates. Tide does not achieve its growth and product goals without the help of Architus"
