Calgary, AB, Canada
Helcim is searching for a Senior Software Engineer to help develop the next generation of payments technology. We're looking for a talented & experienced individual with a passion for coding, enjoys learning & implementing new technologies, has strong problem-solving skills and a user-focused approach to software development.
As a Senior Engineer you will be building and deploying high-quality software solutions. You will continually be involved in mentoring and coaching, ensuring you and your team are delivering at a high level. We put an emphasis on developing our team members to build them into well rounded professionals.
As a member of our team, you will be working on numerous ongoing and new projects. Helcim is a fast-paced, high-demand company and the successful candidate will work well in that environment.
On this team, you're building the systems that handle what we owe- vendor payments, partner payouts, and everything the business needs to pay out. We make sure money flows out on time, to the right people, for the right amounts. From invoice processing to payment execution, we own the full accounts payable lifecycle. We work tight with EQ on the money movement side, but our focus is the outbound flow- making sure Helcim stays solid with vendors and partners. The impact is real- what we ship keeps the lights on and relationships strong across the business.
