We are on the hunt for mid level Engineers to join our team! As a Software Engineer, it’s your job to recognize strengths and weaknesses where they exist, provide feedback, and challenge your colleagues. You’ll lead by example, mentor others, and champion the vision of the company. You will be successful in this role if you are able to accept ownership for effectively developing solutions that improve the merchant experience.

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.

  • Excited by the opportunity to join a growing & scaling company and the unique challenges that it poses.

  • A willingness to try new things and believing that failure leads to inquiry to improve your technical abilities and processes.
