Build the future of the souq.
We're a small, unusually senior team building marketplace infrastructure for the Middle East. If that sounds interesting, here's how to talk.
What we're building
Mint Souq is doing something specific: combining marketplace dynamics with regulated-finance rigour. Most classifieds let strangers exchange money on faith. We want to make every transaction in the region — from a AED 200 sofa to a AED 2 million villa deposit — work the same way: identity-verified, escrow-protected, dispute-resolvable.
The product surface is broad — search, listings, payments, KYC, fraud detection, voice AI, multi-country localisation — but the technical core is small. We move fast because the team is small.
Open positions
We're not actively hiring through this page.
That doesn't mean we're not hiring. The strongest candidates we've worked with reach out before there's a posting. If you think you'd be exceptional in any of the roles below, send us a note — we'll always make time.
Roles we expect to open in the next 6–12 months:
- Senior backend engineer — PHP / MySQL / payments. Owns escrow infrastructure, fraud rules, third-party integrations.
- Compliance officer — UAE-licensed, ideally with a background in financial-services KYC or AML. Builds and runs our verification + sanctions process.
- Trust & safety analyst — Arabic + English fluency, comfortable making judgment calls on documents and disputes. Customer-facing.
- Growth / partnerships lead — relationships with telcos, banks, and large dealer groups across the GCC. Direct sales experience essential.
- Product designer — interaction design with a typography eye. Comfortable working in Arabic + English from day one.
How we work
- Dubai HQ, hybrid. 3 days in office (Business Bay), 2 days remote. Some roles are fully remote within GCC time zones.
- No bullshit ceremonies. We don't do daily standups. We ship and review.
- Bilingual. Internal docs in English, customer-facing in both EN and AR. Arabic fluency is a strong plus for any role.
- Compensation. Market-rate base + meaningful equity. We pay for talent, not seat-time.
How to reach out
Email careers@mintsouq.com with:
- A short note about which role interests you (or pitch us your own).
- A CV, GitHub, portfolio link, or whatever shows your work best.
- Your current location and what kind of arrangement (in-office, hybrid, remote) you're looking for.
We read every email. Generic CVs blasted to 50 companies tend to read that way; we'd rather hear what specifically draws you to Mint Souq.
Mint Capital Investment LLC is an equal-opportunity employer. We hire based on skill and judgment; we do not discriminate by nationality, gender, religion, or any protected characteristic under UAE labour law.
