Software Engineer

About Mollie

We provide a simple and clear payment API, which enables webshop and app builders to implement more than ten different payment methods in one go.

In the first few years of existence, Mollie was a developer-only adventure, and about 15 years later devs and techs still comprise roughly 30% of all staff. As a natural consequence, Mollie still is—and aims to remain—highly tech-minded. We take a developers-first approach to our products and internal development strategy, something that both our customers and our developers appreciate.

This focus on the technical side can be found in various things. For example, you pick whatever tools you want to use to get the job done. MacBooks, absurdly large screens, top-notch noise-canceling headphones, and whatever other equipment makes your nerd-boat float. We go to great lengths to create a space that allows you to focus on the things that will make you happy: shipping great features you helped dream up and build.

Position

We’ve just opened our new development hub in Lisbon, Portugal, and we’re looking for Software Engineer to join the Merchant Experience team. Over the next couple of years, this team will build products that enable merchants to manage their payments in a consistent and localized user experience, at all times.

At the moment, the Merchant Experience team is one of the teams that are closest to our end-users: the employees of the 130,000 businesses that Mollie processes payments for. The team is responsible for products like the Mollie Dashboard as well as our mobile apps (iOS & Android). The products that are built by the team are used by over half a million users every month, and we expect this to double over the next year.

We’re looking for people that enjoy solving complex challenges while keeping the user experience in mind at all times. We’re operating on a large scale and are constantly looking for ways to improve our products, but also the systems that empower these products.

What you will do

As a Software Engineer in the Merchant Experience team, you will be making an impact by iterating on a large set of internal APIs that connect to our mobile apps and dashboards, allowing merchants to get insights and manage their payments. You’ll be working on our authentication system, notification systems, as well as the statistics engine that allows our merchants to see how their business is performing.

The team is 100% data-driven and has ambitious KPIs to ensure we’re focusing on the right things. We work in an agile environment, where everyone gets a lot of freedom, as long as it adds value to the products that users love to use. Mollie is currently going through a phase of hyper-growth, which comes with many opportunities for growth. Join us and be part of a great journey.
