Senior Backend Engineer - Cards Experience

In 1956, a coffee ship arrives from Brazil, triggering controlled chaos at port. Every item requires manual handling - loading, unloading, counting, and tracking. Longshoremen haul diverse cargo: crates, sacks, and wooden barrels. Damage and loss are common. Unloading a single ship takes days.

Malcolm McLean envisions a solution: the standardized shipping container, revolutionizing global commerce. Loading times shrink from weeks to hours.

Just as containers standardized physical goods movement, payment cards standardized money movement.
