Paddle offers digital product companies a completely different approach to their payment infrastructure. Instead of assembling and maintaining a complex stack of payments-related apps and services, we’re a Merchant of Record for our customers. That means we take away 100% of the pain of payment fragmentation. It’s faster, safer, cheaper, and, above all, way better. We’re backed by investors including KKR, FTV Capital, Kindred, Notion, and 83North and serve over 6000 software sellers in 245 territories globally.

• Selling online as a software business is a complex process and many components need to work seamlessly to capture revenue and deliver this to sellers. Paddle manages payments and billing, with a best-in-class developer-first approach, so that we can take this burden from our customers.
• Paddle is a financially-critical system used by a global customer base, processing hundreds of millions of dollars per month, so there is no shortage of interesting challenges. Software Engineers at Paddle are not just programmers, we are problem solvers. We expect engineers to take initiative, as part of a small team, from an initial concept, scoping, implementation, right through to rollout and ongoing ownership. This requires initiative, creative thinking, and clear communication, as well as strong technical ability.
• We often work with a range of other teams including Data/Analytics, Infosec, Platform (SRE), Risk, Finance and many other product teams other than your own. You will collaborate alongside other engineers, product designers, data analysts, and legal and finance experts to have real impact. This is an opportunity for someone who wants to be part of something challenging and transformative, someone who will play a critical role in driving our success.

• Contribute high-quality Go code in a large codebase, in both existing and brand new services.
• Collaborate with other engineers and non-technical colleagues, as well as working independently, with excellent written and verbal communication.
• Build features to a high standard from initial concept and planning right through to rollout
• Help to continuously improve the quality, reliability, and performance of Paddle’s high-traffic event-driven system
• Act like an owner: you’re responsible for getting your code to production, supporting and monitoring it over time, and helping to keep our AWS infrastructure efficient

• Have some experience with Go (our interview is Go-based)
• Have a proactive attitude towards finding ways to improve the code and team processes
• Have attention to detail, and an eye for edge-cases, without always relying on coding agents
• Are someone who takes pride in what you build
• Are intellectually curious about the intersection of payments, finance, technology

• At Paddle, we’re committed to removing invisible barriers, both for our customers and within our own teams. We recognise and celebrate that every Paddler is unique and we welcome every individual perspective. As an inclusive employer we don’t care if, or where, you studied, what you look like or where you’re from. We’re more interested in your craft, curiosity, passion for learning and what you’ll add to our culture. We encourage you to apply even if you don’t match every part of the job ad, especially if you’re part of an underrepresented group.
• Please let us know if there’s anything we can do to better support you through the application process and in the workplace. We will do everything we can to support any accommodations needed. We’re committed to building a diverse team where everyone feels safe to be their authentic self. Let’s grow together.

• Paddle Together - “None of us, is as smart as all of us”
• Paddle Simply - “Simple can be harder than complex: you have to get your thinking clean to make it simple”
• Paddle for others - “We can realise our wildest dreams, so long as we help enough other people to realise theirs”

• We are a diverse, growing group of Paddlers across the globe who pride ourselves on our transparent, collaborative and respectful culture.
• We are a ‘digital-first’ company, which means you can work remotely, from one of our stylish hubs, or even a bit of both! We offer all team members unlimited holidays and 4 months paid family leave regardless of gender. We invest in learning and will help you with your personal development via constant exposure to new challenges, an annual learning fund, and regular internal and external training.
