- Use Kibana, Grafana, and New Relic not just for debugging, but to identify performance trends that inform our next product iterations
- Collaborate with the Payment Operations team to automate manual workflows, turning operational pain points into scalable engineering solutions
- Collaborate with Data Engineering to pipe critical financial data into Snowflake and Superset for advanced business intelligence
- You won’t just “fix bugs.” You identify opportunities to improve the product and challenge requirements when you see a better way to achieve a business goal
What we offer:
- Career of growth opportunities and promotions, 360 feedback, performance evaluation system, and mentoring from an international and distinguished team
- Culture of empowerment, trust, recognition, autonomy and quarterly transparency about company goals. A focus on work-life balance, combined with consistent collaboration and support from a team of 30+ nationalities
- Compensation of attractive salary, health insurance, additional holidays, flexible working hours, language courses, employee-led workshops, office perks, frequent team building and company events, business trips to Berlin
What you will bring :

- Ability to debate technical trade-offs with Product Managers and Senior Devs to find the most impactful solution
- A strong interest in (or experience with) payment processing or financial systems
- Fluent English skills, as you will be working with a distributed team across Europe
- Flexibility to commuting to our Kaunas office for collaborative sessions, while enjoying our flexible hybrid work model
Nice to have:
- Previous experience with Adyen or similar PSPs, or a background in building KYC/onboarding flows
- Experience working with K8s and Docker environments
