Senior Software Engineer
payabl. is a fintech that makes money flow. We give businesses one platform for online and in-store payments, multi-currency business accounts, cards, payouts and 300+ global payment methods. Our engineers build the rails that move that money: quickly, securely and at scale.
📍 Limassol, Cyprus
Hybrid or remote (EU/UK)
Relocation support
the role
You'll join the team behind our APM Gateway , the service that connects payabl. merchants to hundreds of alternative and local payment methods, from wallets and bank transfers to stablecoin settlements. Every new method you integrate opens a new market for our merchants, so the impact is easy to see.
This is a hands-on senior role. You'll own services end to end, shape technical direction with your squad, and help raise the engineering bar across the team.
what you'll do
• Design, build and run high-availability backend services in Python that process real-time payment traffic
• Integrate new alternative payment methods (APMs) and providers, from API design to production rollout
• Own reliability: observability, alerting, incident response and the fixes that stop it happening twice
• Build security, PCI and regulatory requirements into the design from day one
• Review code, mentor engineers and lead technical design discussions
• Work closely with Product, QA and Risk to ship features merchants actually feel
what you bring
• 5+ years building production backend systems, with strong Python (FastAPI, Django or similar)
• Solid experience with distributed systems, REST APIs, message queues (Kafka, RabbitMQ) and SQL databases
• Comfort with containers and cloud infrastructure (Docker, Kubernetes, AWS or GCP) and CI/CD
• A habit of writing clean, tested code and documenting decisions
• Clear communication in English across teams and time zones
nice to have
Payments or fintech experience (acquiring, APMs, PSP integrations), PCI DSS knowledge, or experience with crypto/stablecoin rails.
