Lead complex card-acquiring projects from design through production, building reliable payment systems, tooling, testing frameworks, and network integrations. Work hands-on with ISO messages, routing, authorization, clearing, settlement, reconciliation, interchange, and tokenization. Set technical direction, mentor engineers, improve reliability, participate in on-call operations, and establish standards adopted across teams. The role requires deep acquiring expertise and experience operating large-scale financial systems.

Design, build, scale, and operate high-volume payment APIs and distributed systems serving global traffic. Lead complex engineering projects from requirements through production, improve reliability, performance, observability, fault tolerance, and security, and participate in on-call and incident response. Collaborate across product and engineering teams, use AI-assisted development tools responsibly, and mentor engineers through technical reviews and documentation.

Build and operate ingestion and reconciliation pipelines that match card-network and partner reports against internal transactions. Develop reporting products, produce standardized journals for accounting, support tax and regulatory filing systems, handle sensitive PII for compliance, debug production issues, and collaborate with finance, product, and data teams to automate and scale reconciliation and reporting.
