The DE Acquisition Tech team is building the systems, models, and user experiences that drive iwoca’s customer growth in Germany. The team covers the full journey from first contact to submitted loan application, ensuring potential customers receive relevant outreach, smooth onboarding, and a clear understanding of how iwoca helps their business.
