About the role
JOB PURPOSE:
As part of DP World’s strategy of making global trade flow, we are investing in products that will digitize the logistics ecosystem and provide services which will create stickiness importers and exporters to use DP World services.
This role builds the central payments platform at the core of that effort. The platform will handle payments securely, invoices, and financial data, and it will enable multi-currency and cross-border transactions for customers worldwide. Key components of the platform may include payment processing capabilities, integration with banking systems and payment gateways, robust security measures to protect sensitive financial information, reconciliation, and reporting and analytics tools for monitoring and analyzing transaction data. The payment system will follow strict security and governance standards and comply with GDPR and other data protection regulations across all operating countries.
As a SDE 2, you will be responsible for the software architecture across the foundational services portfolio. You will be deep in each of these products, standardize development practices, deployment procedures, prevent redundancies, and make architectural decisions for this portfolio. The ideal candidate would have built systems from the ground up, would have managed the architecture of a large product or platform.
KEY ACCOUNTABILITIES:
- Design, build, and scale standard-global payment solutions, including payment processing, invoicing, reconciliation, fraud detection, and smart routing that define the best route for each transaction.
- Implement security, data protection, and governance standards, including encryption, access control, audit logging, and compliance with GDPR and other regional regulations.
- Design and build reporting and analytics that monitor transaction data, and standardize development practices, deployment procedures, and architecture across the Foundation Services portfolio.
- Write high-quality distributed, and scalable system software.
- Work in an agile, startup-like development environment, where you are always working on the most important stuff.
- You will be given the opportunity to autonomously deliver the technical direction of the service, and the feature roadmap.
You will work with extraordinary talent and have the opportunity to hire and shape the team to best execute on the product.
