Senior Software Engineer (Payments)

Circle is building the modern community platform for every creator and brand in the world: think "Shopify for creator/brand-led communities". We make it really easy for creators and brands to bring their discussions, members, and content all into one place.

We're looking for a Senior Software Engineer (Rails/React) to work on an exciting area of our product: Payments. At Circle, our payments features allow creators to directly monetize their communities with Circle — a paradigm similar to Patreon, Shopify, Teachable, and others.

This is a 100% remote role. We're now a fully remote team of 65 (and growing!) based in the U.S., Colombia, Portugal, India, Argentina, Slovenia, and other countries. We have a preference for candidates in U.S. and European time zones.

Responsibilities

• Work on our Payments team to build out our creator payments infrastructure

• Improve the quality of our codebase, identify architectural deficiencies, and create achievable paths to solve/evolve them in payments-adjacent areas

• Engage in considerate, but robust, PR reviews with Circle's engineers

• Work closely with Circle's co-founders and designers throughout the feature spec + design process

Who we're looking for

• Significant experience working with Ruby on Rails

• At least 2 years of experience working with payments infrastructure

• Experience working with complex user interfaces and API design

• Strong judgement and attention to detail when it comes to architectural, product, design, and process decisions. Your judgement should inspire a high level of trust within the team.

• A desire to work in an environment which values speed of iteration and individual autonomy
