On a payment receipt from Costa Rica for fees paid, the stamp at the bottom is of a "CAJERO - PLATAFORMISTA"; what is plataformista referring to?
Based on this (https://www.elempleo.com/cr/ofertas-trabajo/plataformista-pa... job description I'm leaning toward "teller" like at a bank. Or perhaps more generally, customer service representative?

Based on the duties described here, I would be inclined to say that the person is more than a cashier/teller, but a "customer service representative (CSR)" or "assisting with the provision of financial advice/CSR", however you wish to word, or a "representative advising on the more technical/in-depth aspects of finances and serving of the frontline".

Sorry? Precisely! Asker did not state which bank (?); 2) one of the links I provided (Sucursal Siquirres) - a different bank probably to the Asker's; each bank has their own job descriptions and different functions, so comment premature, I think????

: Service representative. As you say, frontline but not a teller.// Not quite sure where you are at the moment? did I see Chicago once ?/// Ah Good, still there. "Smart Swedish lady living in Jamaica" has a sort of je ne sais quoi about it :) Stay safe!

cashier; fees clerk; teller
These are the 3 relatively idiomatic alternatives presented, depending on the type of business (e.g. retail or financial), the type of transaction (viz. the type of fees), and the means of payment (e.g. cash or noncash means).
Likewise, I would translate the phrase "CAJERO - PLATAFORMISTA" as "cashier" or "cashier or fees clerk" or "teller", depending on context as described above.
(Other alternatives such as "bursar" or "treasurer" are probably inapt because they describe higher level functionaries who do not fit the description "Cajero".)

: Great ref, but you will note that almost all the tasks indicated are not those of a teller (basically paying out and receiving) The two jobs are of a similar category and are related because they are "frontline" but involve different activities.
