MTS 2, Software Engineer

At PayPal (NASDAQ: PYPL), we believe that every person has the right to participate fully in the global economy. Our mission is to democratize financial services to ensure that everyone, regardless of background or economic standing, has access to affordable, convenient, and secure products and services to take control of their financial lives.

Summary:

Braintree lets you move money from one place to another safely and securely. Every time you pay for an Uber ride, book a stay through Airbnb, or pay with PayPal when you check out online, you're probably using our product. It sounds complex (and it is), but we make it so simple you can't tell we're there.

We solve world-scale problems and provide opportunities to match. We build diverse teams that recognize our strengths and allow us to work on our weaknesses. You bring skills and a relentless focus on the customer, and we'll provide the support you need to do the best work of your life.

As an Engineer on the Braintree Funding Group, you will be responsible for the evolution of our disbursement platform which disburses hundreds of millions of dollars a day to our merchants. You will make key technology decisions, build & maintain large production grade systems, work with our customers to solve their day-to-day problems, and mentor and guide other engineers.

Every day we come to work looking to develop innovative solutions that deliver high customer value at scale. If you are excited about solving hard problems for our customers, working with a passionate and dedicated engineering team, and are focused on constant improvement as an engineer then please apply!
