The Role
We’re looking for a full-stack engineer who thrives on fast iteration, real-world impact, and collaborative problem-solving. This role is focused on payments and monetization, building the systems behind checkout, subscriptions, plans, and the infrastructure that drives transaction revenue across the platform.
You’ll work across the stack, from backend systems that power billing and subscriptions to frontend experiences that drive conversion. The work you ship will directly impact Gross Transaction Volume.
You’ll be part of a small, high-impact team that values speed, ownership, and getting real products into the hands of users quickly. We move fast, use AI to accelerate our workflow, and ship to production continuously.
Responsibilities
Own full features across payments and monetization, from definition through deployment
Build and improve systems for checkout, subscriptions, billing, and plan management
Work across backend and frontend to deliver a seamless purchasing experience
Integrate and evolve third-party payment providers so they feel native and reliable
Prototype quickly and learn through iteration
Debug and test your own code to ship safely and quickly
Use AI tools to improve development speed and explore new approaches
Collaborate with product and design to improve conversion and revenue
Drive simplicity, clarity, and speed in all your builds
Participate in incident response and help resolve production issues tied to payment systems
Qualifications
Five or more years of full-stack development experience, ideally with Ruby on Rails
Strong experience across backend systems and modern frontend frameworks such as React
Experience building or working with payments, subscriptions, or billing systems
Familiarity with third-party payment providers such as Stripe or similar platforms
Experience designing and developing REST APIs
Strong understanding of real-world payments flows, including checkout, subscriptions, retries, failures, and edge cases
Experience working with databases such as PostgreSQL and Elasticsearch
Experience with AI-assisted development workflows
Clear communicator who works well across teams
Bias toward action and shipping
Curiosity and a strong desire to learn and improve
Bonus: Experience with international payments and currencies
Bonus: AWS, Docker, Kubernetes
How You Operate
You move fast and focus on getting real work into production
You take ownership and follow things through
You learn by building and iterating
You care about the details that impact user experience and revenue
You stay unblocked and help others do the same
You are comfortable working in a fast-moving environment with changing priorities
You share ideas and contribute to team decisions
You prefer shipping and learning over overthinking
Location
Remote. We are especially interested in candidates based internationally who bring a global perspective.
