In Spain, Bitpanda is actively expanding its product, engineering, design, and compliance teams from remote-friendly roles and likely a Barcelona-based hub, reflecting its commitment to the Iberian market as part of its European growth.

Roles range from senior individual contributors to interns, covering Web3, trading operations, QA, and data engineering.
Company History
Founded in 2014 by Eric Demuth, Paul Klanschek, and Christian Trummer, Bitpanda began as a simple platform for trading cryptocurrencies and brokers a startup with only three employees. Since then, it has evolved into a multi-asset broker and a major player in the European crypto fintech space, achieving unicorn status in 2021 and raising significant funding to expand its product ecosystem and international footprint.
