What you will do
• Implement new backend features for payment flows.
• Drive technical-debt reduction, including refactoring legacy services, improving test coverage, and modernizing APIs (e.g., deprecated API migrations).

• Deliver against multiple initiatives within agreed sprint cycles. Participate in code reviews, design discussions, and sprint ceremonies alongside full-time Payments engineers.
• Collaborate with product managers, partner teams, and fellow engineers to clarify requirements and deliver end-to-end solutions.
• Produce documentation for owned workstreams — designs, API specs,



KT docs, and runbooks — to support long-term maintainability.
• Ensure a smooth hand-off to the full time engineering team at the conclusion of the engagement.

Must haves
• 4+ years of backend software engineering.
• Building and operating production backend services at scale.
• Strong proficiency in Java as the primary programming language, with Kotlin and Python as complementary skills.
• Hands-on experience with RESTful and GraphQL APIs, microservices, and event-driven systems.
• Payments, fintech, or billing domain experience, including gateways, processors, or PSPs.
• Writing unit, integration, and contract tests.
• Agile/Scrum, sprint-based delivery.
• Ramps quickly on an existing codebase with minimal guidance.
• Git-based version control and code review (GitLab).
• GitLab CI/CD pipelines.
