We are Billie, the leading provider of Buy Now, Pay Later (BNPL) payment methods for businesses, offering B2B companies innovative digital payment services and modern checkout solutions. We are to create a new standard for business payments and have made it our mission to simplify the purchasing experience for all businesses making it a tool for growth. Our solutions are based on proprietary, machine-learning-supported risk models, fully digitized processes and a highly scalable tech platform. This makes us a deep-tech company building financial products, not the other way around. We love building simple and elegant solutions and we strive for automation and scalability.

About the role:

We are seeking a Senior Software Engineer for Billie's Payments domain. We are cracking the B2B finance world and our segment covers the core of the business dealing with funds movement - initiation, settlement, transactions identification, reconciliation and reporting. We thrive in our fast-paced atmosphere, prioritizing quality and trusting our empowered engineering teams.

In this role:

  • You will design, create, test, deploy, maintain and improve existing software.
  • You will be in charge of improving/changing the present status quo, whether through smart refactoring or the addition of new software.
  • You will mentor and teach team members, exchange knowledge with other teams, and do thorough code reviews.
  • You will develop CI/CD tools and practices.
  • You are self-organized, self-driven, and willing to take ownership of initiatives from start to finish while assisting teams in moving forward.

Who we are looking for:

  • You have strong PHP software development experience in large-scale, highly-available and reliable production systems.
  • You are knowledgeable in Symfony or other relevant, similar frameworks
  • You have strong engineering practical experience (9+ years) inclined to offer architectural advice while ensuring security and scalability.
  • You have a proven record of moving from other stacks (preferably JVM)
  • You have experience in working with Microservices and Cloud-based development environments (event-driven architecture, CQRS)
  • You have been able to work in a product-driven environment and understand DDD (Domain Driven Design) and apply it in your day-to-day work
  • You gained work experience with TDD, mobbing, and pair programming.
  • You have excellent written and verbal communication skills in English.

We have chosen domain-driven design as our approach to organize teams and offer their focus, as a consequence we expect any potential Senior Engineers to have a deep understanding of this and of course, be able to apply the same daily.
The tech organization is aligned with our overall business goals, therefore cross-team collaboration is essential for success in this role.

We operate a “you build it, you maintain it” approach to delivery, hence ownership is expected to be end-to-end. From design, and testing to deployment and monitoring, the full lifecycle is in your hands as a Senior Engineer.

What we offer:

  • Flexible work hours and trust in your ability to deliver, empowering you to take control of your work-life balance
  • Hybrid working approach enabling a good balance working from home and the office
  • One of the best Virtual Shares Incentive Programs in the market, so that everyone at Billie is invested in our success
  • Our “Catch a Ride with Billie” program, that enables discounted access to Berlin Public Transport (BVG)
  • A yearly development budget to broaden your skill set and horizons
  • Free German group classes
  • An English-speaking, multicultural team with more than 46 nationalities
  • Great office space at Checkpoint Charlie with free gym access, barista coffee, drinks and more

Billie offers you the opportunity to be a part of one of the fastest-growing Fintech startups in Europe following the mission to innovate to create new freedom for businesses of all sizes. Our combined decades of experience in B2B Financing and Payments in a market thirsty for innovation and change make this a fantastic possibility to get into the most dynamic space in tech.

Join an international team of talented, passionate people where drive and merit matter. We work in nimble, cross-functional teams with open communication lines across the company.
