Banking and IT infrastructure experience at work

Headquartered in Bucharest, Finqware was established in 2018 by a team of fintech enthusiasts, each with a strong background in either banking or core IT infrastructure. Cosmin Cosma as Business development lead, together with Dumitru Taraianu, our Technical mastermind, and Danut Covalciuc, our chief of Operations, decided to start the company and leverage the global transformation of the financial industry to the new interconnected API economy.
