SENIOR BACKEND ENGINEER - PAYMENTS

We are a well-funded, early-stage technology company on a mission to fundamentally redefine the way the world searches, discovers,

and transacts, built on a philosophy that puts the user first at every step.

The user is not simply a means of transaction. They are a valued participant whose data works for them, not against them,

enriching their world and their own experience within it, with them retaining full control.

The internet was built to inform the many, not to serve the individual. Platforms optimize for engagement, extraction, and

consumption at global scale. AI has made this model even more efficient, with the user still largely remaining the input, not the

full beneficiary.

The problem is not information. The world has never had more. The problem is that people give away a lifetime of data without

receiving the personalized experience it should enable.

• Highly ambitious and action-driven; you thrive under pressure and find genuine energy in working at the edge of what is

considered possible

• Capable of designing and building production-grade systems in a fourth of the time most experienced and “sane” professionals

would consider possible

• Design and build payment orchestration infrastructure with intelligent routing, retry logic, and reconciliation across multiple

external and in-house providers

• Build robust transactional architecture that manages complex end-to-end flows from initiation to confirmed state with

comprehensive failure handling

• Integrate with third-party commerce and service APIs through clean abstractions that shield the rest of the platform from

integration complexity

• Build digital wallet and balance management systems with high standards for accuracy, transaction history, and regulatory

auditability

• Design and build enterprise billing and accounting systems that produce correct outputs at scale with strong audit trails for

internal and external compliance

• Build foundational data models and event logs that ensure the entire transaction layer is fully replayable, auditable, and

recoverable from any failure state

• Complete operational understanding of payment flows; every stage from authorization to reconciliation and the engineering

decisions each stage requires

Expect the most talented, rigorous, and driven colleagues you have worked with; people who lift each other up and hold each other

to the highest standard. This company is driven by ideas and innovation, regardless of age, position, or background. The best

ideas must win and the people behind them recognized and rewarded.

A home for exceptional people and geniuses within their domain; those who have always known what they are capable of and have been

waiting for the environment to prove it to the world, whilst first being seen and supported by their coworkers.

work and reach their full potential. We welcome applicants of all backgrounds and do not discriminate on the basis of race, color,
