Senior Software Engineer, Payments

Based in: UNITED STATES or Canada (Remote)

Position Summary 

At HackerOne, we’re on a mission to empower the world to build a safer internet. We’re a growing engineering team with an outsized impact, and we’re looking for a Software Engineer to help us innovate and propel our platform forward. As Senior Software Engineer, you will work with your squad on a variety of challenging and exciting projects. You are a collaborative and effective software engineer as well as a team member. You will work with other engineers at many different levels to gain experience quickly and build delightful features and products for our community, as well as the thousands of companies who trust HackerOne with their cybersecurity posture.

No security engineering experience? Not a blocker.

No hacking experience? No problem.

We are first and foremost product engineers. Digging deep to our core, we are engineers who believe that skillsets are meant to be grown. We don’t need to seek unicorns because we grow into them. Your work will contribute directly to the success of our company, and we are excited to meet you!

This particular software engineering position will reside on a Payments Engineering Team. The Payments Engineering Team’s mission is to enable HackerOne to move money between customers and hackers in a compliant, flexible, and safe manner. 

Your Journey at HackerOne

• For the first 30 days, you'll be onboarded onto our team, getting familiar with our tools, stack, mission, and most importantly your team. Exploration begins and doesn’t stop 

• By 60 days, you’ll have been eased into our wider ecosystem of rotations and tech leadership. You’ll have confidence to take on project work within the team 

• By 90 days you’ll have completed your first stint as a technical project lead and surprised you’ve only been here for 3 months! 

• At HackerOne we believe in dual engineering career paths. Management is a lateral move, not a promotion. We believe in the ability to explore both paths and -- more importantly -- change your mind if one or the other is not a right fit

• As part of a small team that punches far above its weight, you’ll get to dive into new product innovation and interesting technical constraints that come with being in the security space, while balancing user delight and satisfaction

• We’re big on ownership, so we embrace strong collaboration and the ability to influence how we do things

Who You Are

• 5+ years experience with building enterprise web applications; (Note: years in industry is a rough proxy for impact and experience. It’s not about how long you’ve been doing what you’re doing. It’s about what experience you bring to the table)

• Experience with Ruby on Rails, relational databases, API design, and writing technical documentation

• Successful track record of shipping projects quickly with multiple dependencies across technical and non-technical teams

• Excellent team player with strong communication skills

• Comfortable collaborating with stakeholders such as Finance and Compliance to understand requirements

• Ability and willingness to consistently make culture choices that positively impact all of engineering

• Experience in payment systems that include payout methods such as bank transfers, PayPal, and Bitcoin would be an asset but not essential

• HackerOne is a digital first company, and all employees must be able to work and excel in a remote environment.
