Software Development Engineer III - Payer Proposition

We are a small, mighty and growing team that is responsible for developing GoCardless’ payer proposition, where we want to build and generate value from payer networks. GoCardless is used by tens of millions of payers each year, but so far we have done little to engage and build a relationship with them. Most still use our services without knowing. We want GoCardless to become the easiest, and most rewarding way for payers to pay. In turn we want to use the relationship we build with our payers to enhance our service for our merchants. This means you’ll be exploring areas as varied as whether we can improve our paying experience, to whether we should offer rewards and incentives for paying with GoCardless. This is a greenfield area for GoCardless, and will involve a high level of ambiguity, experimentation and cross-functional collaboration as we go on this journey to make GoCardless the easiest and most preferred way to pay.
