Senior Software Engineer

As a Senior Software Engineer, you will be part of a cross-functional, service-oriented team, working on extending and maintaining our Affiliate Marketing platform. You design and build reliable services by writing clean, secure, and well-tested code, following modern engineering best practices.

In this role, you have a significant impact on system efficiency, technical quality, and team effectiveness. You take ownership of meaningful challenges, balancing technical excellence with sustainable product and business needs, and contribute to a collaborative, agile way of working.

You’ll join our Billing & Payments tribe, owning a core domain of the business: how customers are billed and partners get paid. Our engineering culture values pragmatic solutions, automation, strong ownership, and continuous improvement supported by open feedback loops.

We are moving towards a cloud‑first architecture with a strong focus on AWS, working with technologies such as Java/Spring, AWS Lambda, Node.js, Kafka, SQL/NoSQL databases, and more.

• Work within a small, collaborative team using agile methodologies and practices
• Take ownership of applications across the full lifecycle, from design and implementation to operation
• Proactively identify improvement opportunities and technical risks, helping shape technical direction
• Solve real business problems by translating requirements into scalable technical solutions

• Mentor engineers through code reviews, knowledge sharing, and day-to-day collaboration
• Troubleshoot and resolve production issues, ensuring service reliability and operational stability
• Communicate effectively in writing and verbally with local and remote colleagues and stakeholders

Whilst the above outlines the general expectations of the role, we expect this position to evolve over time, offering opportunities to gain deeper knowledge and experience within the online and affiliate marketing domain.
