Description
We're Checkout.com 

Checkout.com is one of the most exciting fintechs in the world. Our mission is to enable businesses and their communities to thrive in the digital economy. We’re the strategic payments partner for some of the best known fast-moving brands globally such as Wise, Hut Group, Sony Electronics, Homebase, Henkel, Binance, Klarna and many others. Purpose-built with performance and scalability in mind, our flexible cloud-based payments platform helps global enterprises launch new products and create experiences customers love. And it's not just what we build that makes us different. It's how.

We empower passionate problem-solvers to collaborate, innovate and do their best work. That’s why we’re number 9 on the Forbes Cloud 100 list and on Glassdoor’s list of Top 10 fintechs to work for. And we’re just getting started. We’re building diverse and inclusive teams around the world — because that’s how we create even better experiences for our merchants and our partners. And we need your help. So, join us to build tomorrow, today.

About the role:

We're a small, agile team working together to ensure that our merchants have the best possible mobile payments experience. We empower developers to deliver value for their customers with our out-of-the-box mobile SDKs that power payments for some of the world’s best known brands.

Our team builds mobile SDKs, which are used by a number of our leading merchants across acquiring (processing payments and authentication) and issuing (card management). Our goal for SDKs is simple: provide the greatest optionality, with the fastest integration, at the lowest cost. You’ll play an important role in the development of the next generation of mobile payments and your work will define a best-in-class experience for the payments industry. Our roadmap for the year ahead is ambitious so you’ll join at an exciting time where we’re looking to 10x our mobile products!

You can check out some of our work on our public repository: https://github.com/checkout/frames-android. This is our payment interfaces SDK that helps businesses accept payments on their Android app. In addition, we have two other private and greenfield SDKs that you’ll be working on.

The ideal person for this role would be someone who can strike the balance between shipping quickly and writing tested and resilient code. You’ll work closely with other engineers, our Product Manager, Patrick, and our Engineering Manager, Deepesh, so it's important you’re a great teammate.

What you'll be doing:

    • Working on our brand-new Issuing SDK and you'll have an opportunity to architect / design this SDK to scale it for the future. 
    • Enhancing our Authentication (3DS) SDK for new merchants which includes native enhancements and bug fixes. 
    • Championing Android SDK / App development best practices, coding conventions, and CI/CD integrations.
    • Working in the wider mobile team will give the chance to work on a large and complex domain, supporting many key pillars of the business.
    • Also supporting them through Architecture and PR reviews.
    • Working independently and handling multiple priorities, taking complete ownership of what you’ve built.
    • Questioning, ‘what can we do better?’ and have a curious mind that challenges the status quo.
    • Asserting the quality of your code with unit tests and automation tests.
    • Establishing best practices and processes for the engineering team's overall development.

About you:

    • Several years of experience in Android development.
    • Strong background building Android applications using Kotlin.
    • Enjoy keeping up to date with industry trends, guidelines, and the latest technologies within Android.
    • A customer advocate who is always looking to build the best for merchants.
    • Comfortable dealing with ambiguity and working in a dynamic/fast-paced environment.
    • Setting standards for mobile best practices across the wider Mobile SDK team.
    • Excellent problem solving and organisational skills.
    • Familiarity with the Gradle build system is desirable.
    • Familiarity working with any CI/CD build system would be beneficial.
    • Knowledge of payments is a plus, but not required.
