About the role
We are looking for a senior backend engineer who can own problems end to end, from unclear requirements to a shipped and observable solution in production. You should enjoy product-minded engineering, including clarifying outcomes, weighing tradeoffs, and delivering incrementally. You should also have a habit of automating repetitive work such as tooling, tests, CI, and internal workflows so the team can focus on higher-value work.

You are expected to use modern AI-assisted engineering tools effectively in day-to-day work, including coding assistants and chat-based models, to move faster while maintaining high standards for quality, security, and code review

Python is our primary language for this stack. We care most about strong backend fundamentals. If your recent experience is in another language but you are motivated to work primarily in Python, we still want to hear from you.

Why you’ll like this role
Opportunity to explore and learn the payments landscape, including providers, flows, economics, and how they operate at scale in real systems.




Direct visibility into how your work impacts revenue, efficiency, and scale. Your changes connect to business outcomes, not just internal systems.
Collaborative environment with solid engineering and product partners. You will work closely with people who care about solving real customer and merchant problems.

What you’ll do
Design and implement features and platform improvements across our backend, including APIs, data access, background jobs, integrations, and operational aspects of payments and related insights.
Work with product managers and analysts to understand business goals and translate them into reliable and maintainable technical designs.
Take ownership from discovery through rollout, including implementation, monitoring, incident follow-up, and iteration, especially when the problem is initially ambiguous.
Improve performance and reliability using approaches suited to our stack, such as SQL
