interesting way to braindump. what models is it using behind the scenes?
how does this compare to lambda and other serverless offerings?
Mexican + Spanish national here. I dropped out off college to do my YC startup. I'm aware TN visas require a degree, but as far as I can see that's not the case with O-1. Even if it's technically not a requirement, would you say this will significantly affect my O-1 chances?

Flinto (YC W18) | Lead Backend Software Engineer | Mexico City | Full-Time | REMOTE | https://flinto.me

Flinto is AliPay for Latin America.

People use Flinto to send peer to peer payments (like Venmo in the US), pay at merchants by scanning QR codes, and pay any phone/utility bill from their smartphone. All this even if they don't have a bank account since besides linking credit/debit cards users can deposit and withdraw cash at any merchant that accepts Flinto as a payment method.

We're looking for a Backend Engineer to lead development of our core platform, servers, and databases.
