About the role:

We’re on a mission to build the first holistic smart payment solution-one that maximizes authorization rates for our merchants by intelligently determining and executing the optimal strategy for every transaction. Our Payments team is designing and running highly critical, production-grade infrastructure, and we’re looking for a deeply technical engineer to help shape it from the ground up.

In this role, you’ll lead the design and development of payment products, build resilient infrastructure, dive deep into technical complexity to solve production challenges, and work closely with teammates, stakeholders, and customers to understand their needs. You’ll have end-to-end ownership-from architecture and coding to deployment and monitoring-while helping set the technical direction for a growing initiative.

This is an early-stage effort, giving you the chance to be a founding member, influence architectural decisions, and directly impact merchant success. We value thoughtful technology choices, resourcefulness, and a fast-moving, problem-solving mindset. Our engineers are creative, independent, and adaptable, working with a diverse stack of technologies to deliver maximum value to our clients.
