Our Management team enables merchants to streamline the management of their payments, as well as making it easier to manage complex workflows and accounts.

You’ll join a team of backend, full-stack, and frontend engineers all working together alongside our Product team.

The team adopts a ‘you build it, you own it’ approach, working with infrastructure, doing their own testing and QA.

Our tech stack includes : Python, Typescript, React, AWS, Kubernetes and Terraform amongst lots of other things.

• Driving and using modern development practices such as BDD and TDD would be highly beneficial
• Creating clear, modern, well tested code
• Collaborating across teams in a product-driven environment
• Taking ownership of key technology decisions, building for scale and optimising for output

Life at Primer

We’ve been recognised as a top global employer, #1 in FinTech for ‘flexibility’! We’re building a culture where people can come and do their best work and enjoy it. You will be working with a team of people who are mission-driven, smart, and reflective, and who are invested in building exceptional products and delivering success for our merchants (and we also know how to have fun along the way).

We work remotely. We believe that building a successful, profitable company goes beyond proximity. We invest in our relationships with each other through great remote working practices and thoughtfully designed face-to-face time together. Our heads-together time comes in the form of workstations, our annual company retreat, and co-working space access worldwide.

The work that we do is challenging. Startups are a challenge, building category defining products is a challenge. You should be prepared for a challenge at Primer. But, there’s a big difference between a challenge and a struggle. The key difference is that the right challenge comes with the right support structures, an acceptance that not everything always goes to plan, a collaborative environment, and a great team around you. It’s never a challenge that you will face alone.
