</p><br>
<h2 class="jobSectionHeader"><b>About Commerce
</b></h2><p>Commerce is an open SaaS ecommerce platform that helps merchants build, run, and grow their businesses.
</p><p>The Data Team builds systems that support merchant-facing products, integrations, analytics, reporting, and the infrastructure behind them.<br>
</p><br>
<h2 class="jobSectionHeader"><b>About The Role
</b></h2><p>We are looking for a Senior Software Engineer who can own complex problems from discovery through production.
</p><p>This role is not narrowly frontend, backend, or data engineering. The right person can work across services, APIs, event flows, product experience, production debugging, and cross-team delivery.
</p><p>They should be comfortable taking an unclear business or customer problem, breaking it down, making trade-offs clear, and shipping a reliable solution.
</p><p>We need someone who raises the engineering bar without needing a lot of direction.<br>
</p><br>
<h2 class="jobSectionHeader"><b>What You Will Do
</b></h2><ul><li>Design and build reliable services, APIs, and product-facing workflows.
</li><li>Work across backend systems, UI surfaces, event processing, and third-party integrations.
</li><li>Turn unclear problems into concrete technical plans.
</li><li>Own production behavior, including monitoring, alerting, logging, debugging, and runbooks.
</li><li>Work with product, design, infrastructure, support, and other engineering teams.
</li><li>Improve quality through tests, code review, observability, and simpler designs.
</li><li>Use data and production evidence to validate decisions.
</li>Take ownership of incidents and production issues when systems do not behave as expected.<br>
<li>
</li></ul><br>
<h2 class="jobSectionHeader"><b>What We Are Looking For
</b></h2><ul><li>Strong senior-level engineering judgment.
</li><li>Experience owning ambiguous technical work.
</li><li>Ability to solve problems across multiple layers of a system.
</li><li>Strong backend engineering experience with production services.
</li><li>Enough frontend experience to work on product-facing workflows when needed.
</li><li>Comfort with distributed systems, event-driven flows, caching, retries, rate limits, and failure modes.
</li><li>Strong production debugging skills.
</li><li>Ability to explain trade-offs clearly.
</li><li>Bias toward simple, reliable solutions.
</li>Good communication during incidents, reviews, and cross-team work.<br>
<li>
</li></ul><br>
<h2 class="jobSectionHeader"><b>Technical Experience
</b></h2><ul><li>5+ years of software engineering experience.
</li><li>Strong experience with Java, Scala, Kotlin, Go, or a similar backend language.
</li><li>Experience building APIs, services, and integrations.
</li><li>Experience with SQL and data-backed product behavior.
</li><li>Experience with GCP, AWS, or another cloud platform.
</li><li>Experience with Kafka, RabbitMQ, Pub/Sub, or similar event systems.
</li><li>Experience with logs, metrics, dashboards, alerts, and tracing.
</li>Experience writing automated tests and reviewing code.<br>
<li>
</li></ul><br>
<h2 class="jobSectionHeader"><b>Useful Experience
</b></h2><ul><li>React / TypeScript or similar frontend experience.
</li><li>Experience with merchant-facing or customer-facing product workflows.
</li><li>Experience with third-party integrations, account linking, OAuth, or external APIs.
</li><li>Experience with Redis, caching, rate limiting, queues, or high-volume event processing.
</li>Experience with analytics, reporting, attribution, or event data products.<br>
<li>
</li></ul><br>
<h2 class="jobSectionHeader"><b>Mindset
</b></h2><ul><li>Own the outcome, not only the ticket.
</li><li>Ask what problem we are solving before choosing the implementation.
</li><li>Prefer simple designs that other engineers can operate.
</li><li>Validate risky assumptions early.
</li><li>Use production data and customer impact to guide decisions.
</li><li>Escalate early when risk, ownership, or scope is unclear.
</li>Do not take shortcuts around process, security, or production safety.<br>
<li>
</li></ul><br>
<h2 class="jobSectionHeader"><b>What Good Looks Like
</b></h2><p>A strong candidate can describe systems they owned, incidents they handled, trade-offs they made, and mistakes they learned from.
</p><p>They should be able to explain how they approach unclear problems, reduce risk before production, and make systems easier for the team to operate.
</p><p>They should not need a tech lead to turn every ambiguous problem into a detailed task list.
</p><p></p><h1 class="jobSectionHeader"><b>Inclusion and Belonging
</b></h1><p></p><p>At Commerce, we believe that celebrating the unique histories, perspectives and abilities of every employee makes a difference for our company, our customers and our community. We are an equal opportunity employer and the inclusive atmosphere we build together will make room for every person to contribute, grow and thrive.

<div><p><b>About Us</b><br>
Visa is a world leader in payments technology, facilitating transactions between consumers, merchants, financial institutions and government entities across more than 200 countries and territories, dedicated to uplifting everyone, everywhere by being the best way to pay and be paid.</p><p></p><p>
At Visa, you'll have the opportunity to create impact at scale &mdash; tackling meaningful challenges, growing your skills and seeing your contributions impact lives around the world.</p><p></p><p>
Join Visa and do work that matters &ndash; to you, to your community, and to the world. Progress starts with you.</p><p></p><p><b>
Job Description</b></p><p></p><p>
 Currency cloud was acquired by Visa in December 2021. The Treasury Liquidity Observability Team is responsible for building the engine that observes where our funds are or projected to b at any given time to optimize liquidity across our global network. This engine will be designed using modern architectural principles, including event-driven approaches, to ensure scalability, resilience, and real-time decision-making.</p><p><b>
</b> As a Senior Software Engineer, you&rsquo;ll play a key role in designing and implementing this engine. Your focus will be on delivering robust, performant solutions while collaborating with other engineers and stakeholders. While the architecture will leverage event-driven principles, your role will involve lightly advocating for these practices within the team rather than broad organizational evangelism.</p><p>
 Our stack runs on AWS as a set of distributed applications using Kubernetes and a microservice-led architecture. We are also utilizing Kafka for our streaming and PACT for Contract testing.</p><p>
 What you'll get to do</p><ul><li>
Design, develop, and maintain core services for the liquidity observability engine using Java and related technologies.</li><li>
Implement event-driven patterns where appropriate to support real-time decision-making.</li><li>
Ensure high availability, scalability, and observability of critical components.</li><li>
Collaborate with cross-functional teams to understand requirements and deliver solutions that meet organizational needs.</li><li>
Contribute to continuous improvement in code quality, testing, and deployment practices.</li><li>
Support and advocate for event-driven architecture within the team as part of delivering the solution.</li></ul><p>
 You'll get</p><ul><li>
Ownership of critical components within a high-impact financial system.</li><li>
Opportunity to work on complex, business-critical problems with real-world impact.</li><li>
A modern tech stack and autonomy to innovate.</li><li>
Strong organizational support and visibility for your work.</li></ul><p>
 Our Tech Stack includes</p><ul><li>
Object-oriented programming forms the bulk of our codebase, currently in Java, versions 11+, and ideally Springboot framework</li><li>
Highly-scalable, highly-available, cloud-native applications on AWS are key to our next phase of growth, are written to 12-factor principles and fit into our microservices architecture</li><li>
Cloud-related tools, services, and distributed system observability to support these applications, such as Docker, Kubernetes, ElasticSearch, log management systems, and Datadog APM, to name but a few</li><li>
API specifications, conforming to the OpenAPI (Swagger) standard, provide a clean boundary both externally between our customers and our product, and internally between our microservices</li><li>
SQL, and large SQL databases, provide the persistence layer for our applications. You&rsquo;ll be working with (and know the limitations of using) such large datastores</li><li>
Infrastructure automation is primarily owned by the infrastructure team, but you will be a consumer of their work, familiarity with AWS, Terraform and Docker is beneficial</li><li>
Testing approaches, including TDD, BDD and Contract Testing, all form an important part of our approach to quality assurance, ensuring that the code that we write forms products that are fit for use. We currently use a variety of frameworks including JUnit, RSpec and Cucumber</li><li>
Agile development, with teams broadly aligned with the Spotify - Squads and Tribes - model, helps us deliver incremental improvements to our products in an iterative manner. Advocating this model, and joining us on a journey of continuous improvement, is a key attribute of members of our teams</li><li>
Continuous Integration and Continuous Delivery pipelines allow us to automate-all-the-things, providing repeatable builds and consistent deployments</li><li>
GitHub, and the GitHub PR review process, forms a core part of our developer workflow, and peer reviews help share knowledge and improve quality</li><li>
Teamwork, and cross-team collaboration, is fundamental to the delivery of our applications. Whilst each application has an independent path to production, there will always be some activities and initiatives that span multiple teams and require cross-team collaboration. Within your team you&rsquo;ll need to collaborate with a number of stakeholders, including Product Owners and QA, as part of your product development</li></ul><p>
