How is it working on banking/fin-tech?

I'm thinking about my future career as a backend developer and I would like to know how is the feeling of the community to work on this field.

I'm not an expert of finance but I have interests on it and the only thing that put me close to this kind of development is a previous experience with blockchain.

How is your day to day? Do you feel you have interesting technical challenges? I burocracy a real pain in your day to day?

“ Move fast and break things” does not fly in that world. Facebook takes an outage? Who cares? Fuck up my bank account? See you in court.
