Software Engineer - Payments

• Ownership mindset: You take responsibility for the quality and reliability of your work. You don't wait to be told what needs fixing - you flag it, follow through, and close the loop with your team.Technical fundamentals: You understand the importance of writing clean, maintainable, and well-tested code. You care about getting the details right - naming, test coverage, edge cases - because you understand that's where reliability lives. You follow standards and code patterns.Integration aptitude: You’re comfortable working with external APIs and can navigate documentation, debug integration issues, and build toward resilient interfaces - even when the partner side is unclear.Security and compliance awareness: You may not be a PCI expert, but you understand why it matters. You default to secure patterns and ask the right questions when you’re unsure.Collaboration under pressure: You communicate clearly when things break, contribute to investigations without needing full context upfront, and stay composed in high-urgency moments.Continuous learning: You’re ready to learn. You’re curious about how systems connect beyond your immediate scope. You learn from senior engineers, absorb domain context quickly, and aren’t shy about asking why. • What Sets You Up for Success: • 2+ years of PHP/Java web application software engineering experience. • Solid working knowledge of MySQL or PostgreSQL - you can write efficient queries and understand indexing basics. • Exposure to event-driven architectures and/or microservices concepts; hands-on experience is a plus but not required. • Familiarity with modern infrastructure tooling (e.g., DataDog, GitHub Actions, Kubernetes, Docker, AWS). • Understands the value of logging, metrics, and monitoring, and actively contributes to observability in the systems they work on. • Familiarity with PCI-DSS, GDPR, or other compliance frameworks - even if just operating within a compliant environment. • Experience working in payments, fintech, or any domain where transaction accuracy and data integrity are non-negotiable. • Exposure to Domain-Driven Design concepts or experience working within a codebase that follows its patterns. • Hospitality or travel industry experience.
