About UsThe Outgo engineering team is at the heart of revolutionizing financial services for truckers. We build robust, fault-tolerant systems that make real-time decisions and manage money flows with bank-grade reliability. Our technology transforms the accounts receivable process through intelligent automation and visualization, multiplying our operations team's effectiveness. For our customers, we craft intuitive, trustworthy applications that set a new standard for financial services.
Our modern tech stack is built on Go (golang) powered by AWS infrastructure. We leverage cutting-edge tools including Temporal, Postgres, LLMs and Grafana to deliver exceptional results.
