About the role
As a Principal Software Engineer, you will make an impact by leading the design, development, and delivery of secure, high-performing payments platforms while owning outcomes from build through go-live and production support. You will be a valued member of the Payments Engineering team and work collaboratively with Product Managers, Project Managers, Solution Architects, Operations teams, and Australian-based clients and partners.
In this role, you will:
- Lead and mentor an engineering team while remaining hands-on with solution design and development of backend services and APIs
- Own end-to-end delivery, including go-live and post-production support, building trust with clients throughout
- Act as a client-facing technical leader, running discussions, resolving issues, and aligning on delivery with local stakeholders
- Drive incident triage, troubleshooting, and root cause analysis, working closely with Operations teams and clients to resolve live issues, including participation in the on-call roster once onboarded
- Guide agile execution by taking on Scrum Master responsibilities and championing CI/CD and deployment automation
What you need to have to be considered
- Extensive commercial software engineering experience at a Principal or Staff level, with a proven record of leading teams, engaging clients, and owning outcomes
- Strong backend engineering expertise in Java and Spring Boot, including microservices and API design (payments context preferred)
- Solid understanding of the payments domain, including the payment lifecycle (authorisation, capture, settlement), transaction processing systems, reconciliation, refunds, and chargebacks
- Experience with payment gateway or orchestration platforms and PCI-DSS compliant systems
- Strong production mindset covering troubleshooting, incident triage, and root cause analysis, with comfort working in high-pressure live environments and willingness to participate in the on-call roster
- Based in Australia, with the ability to engage directly with local clients and stakeholders, a strong understanding of the local client environment and communication style, and time zone alignment
These will help you stand out
- Experience with CI/CD pipelines and deployment automation
- Experience with database interaction and collaboration with DBAs
- Experience with large-scale system integration
- Experience taking on Scrum Master responsibilities and guiding agile execution
- Track record of building client trust during delivery and production situations
