About The Position

Our client is a Stripe-native payment recovery platform for B2C subscription businesses. They help companies recover failed payments and reduce involuntary churn on a performance basis: no recovery, no fee. They have a working product, paying customers, and a growing business. They're now expanding our engineering team to build the infrastructure behind our next stage of growth. We're looking for a Senior Software Engineer who is backend-leaning but comfortable across the full stack. The role is approximately 80% backend / 20% frontend. You'll work on commercially important systems including: Payment and billing integrations, Data models and ingestion pipelines, Retry, orchestration, and reconciliation systems, Payment recovery infrastructure, Machine-learning experiments and performance analysis, Email and push notification workflows, Internal tools and customer-facing product. You'll own projects end to end — from understanding the problem and designing the solution to implementation and production. This isn't a role where you'll receive detailed specifications for every task. We need someone who can take a business or technical objective, make good architectural decisions, and ship a reliable solution independently.

Requirements

• 4+ years of professional software engineering experience
• Strong backend engineering skills with full-stack capability
• Experience independently owning and shipping production systems
• Strong system design and technical judgment
• Ability to work effectively with APIs, databases, integrations, and production systems
• Comfortable making decisions with incomplete information
• Strong English communication skills
• Experience using AI effectively in your development workflow
• Python / Next.js / React / PostgreSQL
• Payments, fintech, billing, or subscription infrastructure
• Third-party integrations
• Data ingestion or reconciliation systems
• Early-stage startup experience
• Approximately 4–6 hours of overlap with the US team, particularly US Pacific/Central time.

Nice To Haves

• AI heavily in development and expect you to as well.
• Use tools such as Cursor, Codex, Claude Code, or similar to accelerate implementation.
• Understand and architect the problem before coding
• Review and validate AI-generated code
• Explain your technical decisions
• Understand how your code fits into the broader system
• Anticipate failure modes and edge cases
