Who we are:

Mama Money  is a growth-stage fintech on a mission to improve the financial lives of migrants and underserved communities across Africa and beyond. What started in 2015 as a cross-border payments service has grown into a multi-product financial platform. We give people the tools to send, save, and manage money — on their own terms, at a socially fair price.

Mama HQ is in beautiful Cape Town, South Africa. We're 153 people strong (and counting), representing 19 countries across Africa, Asia, the UK, and Europe. From remittances to a growing range of financial products, everything we build is in service of people who deserve better. Our culture reflects that same commitment. We look after our team the way we want them to look after our customers. "Just be lekker!" means we trust our talented, diverse people to do what's right and make it happen — simply and with heart.

We've earned a few accolades, built lasting partnerships, and grown our reach in ways we're proud of. We've had good times and tough times, but our focus has never shifted. People over profit, always.

We’re looking for a Senior BI Engineer to join our Data team and become a key driver of how data is structured, surfaced, and used across Mama Money. This role goes beyond analysis — you’ll design and build the data products, models, and reporting layers that enable fast, reliable, self-service decision-making across the business.

Why Mama Money?

At Mama Money, we’re here to make it easy—for our customers, our communities, and for each other. Simplicity is at the heart of what we do, whether it's creating a seamless and  stress-free customer journey or removing barriers that stand in the way of progress, our work is all about delivering impact, minimizing complexity, and ensuring every experience with Mama Money is easy.

We’re a team that isn’t afraid to give it a go. We value taking action, making bold steps, embracing innovation, solving problems, doing the hard things, and thinking smartly. Mistakes and failures don’t stop us—they teach us. Every challenge is a chance to grow, do better, and push boundaries.

And we just own it. Whether it’s delivering results, collaborating across teams, driving urgency, or taking accountability for our actions, we approach every task with integrity and purpose. We make company goals our own, showing up for each other, our customers, and our mission to create lasting change.
