WHAT WE ALREADY KNOW ABOUT THIS INTERVIEW
Monzo describes itself as a digital bank built around a smartphone app, with the aim of solving customers’ problems, simplifying financial life, and giving people more control from their phone.
Monzo is growing beyond its original UK challenger-bank model, with more personal and business products, continued UK growth, and European expansion.
Engineering supports infrastructure, AWS, Kubernetes, data centres, customer-facing products, and systems that operate the bank. That makes reliability, security, and operational ownership especially relevant themes to prepare for.
Every one of these came from something we read about Monzo. The sources are linked, so you can check them.
