  About the Role & Team:

  At Global Payments and Risk, we are driven to innovate by using data-driven insights and advanced technologies to enhance our products and services. Our mission is to tackle real-world challenges, creating better user experiences and achieving key business goals.

  We are looking for a talented Full Stack Software Engineer with a proven track record of applying strong software development principles to build highly scalable and reliable solutions. As a member of our collaborative and resourceful team, you will tackle complex problems and help push the boundaries of what's possible. If you are passionate about building exceptional software, we invite you to join us.

  
  What you will accomplish:

  • Design, develop, and deploy complex, distributed systems that operate with lightning speed, handling over a billion requests daily. This is a unique opportunity to work on applications with a global reach and immense user impact.
  • Collaborate with seasoned experts to devise innovative strategies and solutions that solve complex problems.
  • Craft the architectural blueprint for both new and existing systems. You'll have the autonomy to drive architecture discussions, analyze large codebases, and make critical decisions that ensure our solutions are scalable, maintainable, and aligned with long-term strategy.
  • Take full ownership of the software development lifecycle, from initial design and coding to deployment and maintenance in a fast-paced CI/CD environment.
  • Elevate the entire team by mentoring and guiding junior engineers. This is your chance to lead by example, share your expertise through code reviews and technical guidance, and shape the next generation of engineering talent.
  • Engage directly with product managers and other key partners to transform ambitious business requirements into robust, elegant technical solutions.

  
  What you will bring:

  • A Master’s degree in Computer Science or related field with 8+ years of experience, or a Bachelor’s degree in Computer Science with 10+ years of experience

  • You have 7+ years of experience building large-scale distributed web platforms/APIs, with 5+ years as an architect or technical lead where you were responsible for the end-to-end product scope across multiple domains.

  • Proven ability to create, drive, and execute a technical strategy and roadmap. You know how to make balanced trade-offs that support long-term goals without sacrificing immediate needs.

  • You excel at aligning key stakeholders and engineering teams around a cohesive technical direction, using clear documentation like Architectural Decision Records (ADRs) to navigate ambiguous challenges.

  • A passion for improving team velocity and code quality, with demonstrated experience developing and driving the adoption of technical best practices across an organization.

  • Deep, end-to-end system design knowledge, from front-end JavaScript frameworks (React, Angular) to backend services (GraphQL/REST APIs), messaging systems, databases (RDBMS/NoSQL), and containerized infrastructure. Hands-on experience with GraphQL is highly preferred.

  • A track record of independently leading complex technical initiatives across multiple teams, from initial concept to successful launch and delivery.
