Payments are often compared to a black-box. Merchants around the world have issues understanding how their performance is and what optimization can be done. Our team is focused on building the best payment performance tool there is. It allows merchants to better understand their online processes as well as offline payments.

We offer 2 products to our merchants:The first, named Telescope, allows us to analyse, understand and make recommendations to a merchant. It does not require any technical integration from them and works mainly through webhooks, pulling data from APIs or parsing exported files.

About You

  • 3 years software development experience in Go
  • Know your way around web-related tech (HTTP, TLS, proxies, API conventions...)
  • Implemented APIs
  • Experience deploying applications as a part of a service-oriented architecture
  • Curious and unafraid of digging deeper to understand how systems of all kinds work
  • Keen to communicate with third-party gateways from a technical point of view as well as to maintain the best relationship as possible
  • Knowledge in the payment ecosystem
  • Worked on critical services
  • Some basic knowledge about ElasticSearch

What you will be doing

  • Payment gateway integrations: Interacting with external APIs through an in-house framework, handling webhooks notifications and parsing bank reconciliation summary files
  • Communication with third party payment gateways
  • Design and implement new workflows on our services

If you don't meet all the requirements but think you might still be right for the role, please apply anyway. We're always keen to speak to people who connect with our mission and values.

About the interview

  • 15-minute call w/ Cory (CEO)
  • 30-minute discussion about the role and your experience w/ Dave (CTO)
  • 1-hour coding session on an open source issue of your choosing. w/ Chris (COO)

Our coding interview is very different.

Our goal is for you to be the expert on the call and to see what it's like to work with you as the new employee:

  • Pick an issue on an open-source project in Golang that you think will take an hour or more.
  • Don't overthink picking the issue!
  • Feel free to familiarize yourself with the codebase, the issue history, the test suite - whatever you think you need to be the 'expert' during the interview. Don't share the issue with us.
  • At interview time, you are in the driver seat, you are the expert. Our goal is to see what it's like to work with you on our first day.
  • Please don't actually start work on the issue until the interview.
