At PayNearMe, we’re on a mission to make paying and getting paid as simple as possible. We build innovative technology that transforms the way businesses and their customers experience payments. Our industry‑leading platform, PayXM™ is the first of its kind—designed to manage the entire payment experience from start to finish. Every click, swipe or tap is seamless, fast and secure, helping non‑commerce businesses boost customer satisfaction, accelerate payments, and reduce costs.

Our single platform handles it all : cards, ACH, digital wallets such as PayPal, Venmo, Cash App Pay, Apple Pay and Google Pay, and even cash at more than 62,000 retail locations nationwide. Today, thousands of businesses across consumer lending, iGaming and online sports betting, property management, and tolling trust PayNearMe to deliver a payment experience that drives real results. In September 2025, we raised a $50 million Series E funding round to accelerate our growth. We’re a team of 200+ employees across 41 states, headquartered in Silicon Valley with satellite offices in Dallas, TX and Holmdel, NJ. Join us and be part of a team that’s shaping the future of payments—one experience at a time.

Job Description

  • Make practical decisions with good judgment when faced with design constraints and trade‑offs.
  • Participate in code reviews, providing constructive feedback through pull requests to ensure code quality, best practices and limit breaking changes.
  • Mentor and support team members, fostering a collaborative and inclusive environment that promotes learning and growth.
  • Participate in on‑call rotations to support and maintain production systems, including incident response and resolution.

Qualifications

  • Experience working in a large codebase and communicating about code
  • Ability to make practical decisions with good judgment when faced with design constraints

  • Respect and support for team members of all levels and backgrounds, with openness to both teaching and learning
  • Preferred Qualifications

  • Understanding of money movement flows—capture, settlement, disbursement, and reconciliation.
  • Prior exposure to financial data integrity concepts : double‑entry ledger or general ledger design, transaction lifecycle management, variance tracking and exception reporting.
  • A working knowledge of GO
  • Experience in modularizing monolithic applications, and when to move towards “services” vs “microservices”
  • Familiarity with design patterns that support long‑term sustainability
  • Skills in solving complex performance problems
  • Benefits

  • Premium medical benefits including vision and dental (100% coverage for employees)
  • Company‑sponsored life and disability insurance
  • Paid parental bonding leave
  • Paid sick leave, jury duty, bereavement
  • 401k plan
  • Flexible Time Off (our team members typically take off ~3‑4 weeks per year)
  • Volunteer Time Off
  • 13 scheduled holidays
  • Salary Range

    $175,000 - $200,000
