Engineering at TrueAccord
TrueAccord is growing at a prodigious rate. Our systems are reaching challenges of scale as we approach tens of millions of transactions per week. In response to the onboarding of large clients and new features, some systems are actively evolving while others are being rebuilt from scratch.
We work with a mix of languages and technologies, including Scala, Java, Go and Python across our stack. We believe in using the right tool for the job and value simple solutions over beautiful ones.
Team's Mission:
TrueAccord has pioneered a new way of helping consumers deal with debt while safeguarding their credit scores.
By using machine learning models to understand our consumers better, we've completely removed the need for aggressive debt collection, and work with consumers to cure their late debts with a customized repayment experience. TrueAccord has already helped over 11 million consumers deal with late debt. By carefully balancing the needs of creditors and debtors, we're able to collect larger amounts and do so faster than traditional debt collectors.
We do this by focusing on an automatically tailored repayment experience and carefully balancing the needs of creditors and debtors.
