Who we are is what we do.

Deel is the all‑in‑one payroll and HR platform for global teams. Our vision is to unlock global opportunity for every person, team, and business. Built for the way the world works today, Deel combines HRIS, payroll, compliance, benefits, performance, and equipment management into one seamless platform. With AI‑powered tools and a fully owned payroll infrastructure, Deel supports every worker type in 150+ countries—helping businesses scale smarter, faster, and more compliantly.

Among the largest globally distributed companies in the world, our team of 6,000 spans more than 100 countries, speaks 74 languages, and brings a connected and dynamic culture that drives continuous learning and innovation for our customers.

Why should you be part of our success story?

As the fastest‑growing Software as a Service (SaaS) company in history, Deel is transforming how global talent connects with world‑class companies – breaking down borders that have traditionally limited both hiring and career opportunities. We’re not just building software; we’re creating the infrastructure for the future of work, enabling a more diverse and inclusive global economy. In 2024 alone, we paid $11.2 billion to workers in nearly 100 currencies and provided healthcare and benefits to workers in 109 countries—ensuring people get paid and protected, no matter where they are.

Our momentum is reflected in our achievements and customer satisfaction : CNBC Disruptor 50, Forbes Cloud 100, Deloitte Fast 500, and repeated recognition on Y Combinator’s top companies list – all while maintaining a 4.83 average rating from 15,000 reviews across G2, Trustpilot, Captera, Apple and Google.

Your experience at Deel will be a career accelerator. At the forefront of the global work revolution, you’ll tackle complex challenges that impact millions of people's working lives. With our momentum—backed by a $12 billion valuation and $1 billion in Annual Recurring Revenue (ARR) in just over five years—you’ll drive meaningful impact while building expertise that makes you a sought‑out leader in the transformation of global work.

The Global Payroll Product Specialist is an early‑career member of the Native Engine Build team, responsible for configuring solutions, executing tests, and supporting the successful launch of payroll products in new countries.

  • Execute functional and regression tests using predefined test books and acceptance criteria.
  • Partner with Business Analysts and QA to validate that builds meet legislative and compliance standards.
  • Log and document test results, escalating defects or compliance gaps to Solution Designers or Developers.
  • Support UAT activities and resolve defects during the testing cycle.
  • Collaboration & Delivery

  • Work closely with Solution Designers, Product Architects, Business Analysts, and cross‑functional teams to deliver scoped requirements.
  • Oversee task delivery, proactively addressing delays to ensure timely project completion.
  • Participate in Agile ceremonies (stand‑ups, sprint reviews, retrospectives) and support the team in meeting delivery commitments.
  • Lead post‑deployment reviews to ensure smooth handover to stakeholders.
  • Learning & Development

  • Build expertise in global payroll, HR, and financial systems.
  • Develop deep knowledge of payroll configuration tools, frameworks, and compliance requirements.
  • Actively seek mentorship and feedback to grow into more advanced solutioning roles.
  • Experience & Qualifications

  • Minimum 3 years of experience in payroll configuration, including back‑end configuration and payroll calculation programming.
  • Bachelor’s degree in Information Systems, Computer Science, Business, HR / Payroll, or equivalent practical experience.
  • Strong understanding of payroll elements, codes, formulas, statutory rates, and country‑specific requirements.
  • Experience analysing advisory information and collaborating with cross‑functional teams.
  • Proficiency in Excel (intermediate level, including lookups and formulas).
  • Experience with report writing tools (preferred).
  • Basic understanding of Agile / Scrum methodologies and team collaboration practices.
  • Skills

  • Attention to Detail : Ensures accuracy in configuration, testing, and compliance.
  • Analytical Thinking : Applies logical thinking to follow specifications, identify issues, and address compliance requirements.
  • Collaboration : Works effectively with global, cross‑functional teams.
  • Learning Agility : Quickly absorbs new domain and technical knowledge, including payroll legislation.
  • Execution : Reliable in delivering compliant configurations and test results against defined requirements.
