Our team’s mission is a bold one – to create technology that can run the world’s banks according to the best designs and software practices of the modern age. In doing so, we will properly and permanently rid the world’s banks of the problems generated by poor technology running on legacy infrastructure. Our solution to this is Vault Core: a complete core banking platform that is capable of being configured easily to suit the needs of any bank. We have built Vault Core from the ground up as a cloud-native, microservices and API-based platform. Thought Machine has a deep culture of engineering excellence, and our approach has engendered a seismic shift in the banking industry. Thought Machine is looking for highly talented individuals to help grow the company and achieve our ambitious goal. We pride ourselves on having an excellent internal culture, where we strive hard to create the best possible working environment; a healthy mix of great technical work, fast pace, a supportive atmosphere, and of course our irreverent sense of fun.

Get funding for a top-tier master degree - without worrying about collateral or a cosigner. We provide collateral-free education loans for international masters students, to pursue their dream degrees at the world’s best schools. We believe in equal access to life-changing education, globally. Talent and potential are evenly distributed around the world, but access to opportunity is not. Specifically, access to world-class education is limited by financial means. This is particularly true in emerging markets where many families dont have the income or collateral to support the education aspirations of the next generation of global leaders.
