Software Engineer Java - Payouts Platform

Payouts are one of the most important parts of the merchant experience. When a merchant expects to receive their money, the process needs to be reliable, transparent and predictable.

In this role, you’ll work on systems that directly support the movement of funds to SumUp merchants. You’ll help modernise existing components, build new capabilities and contribute to a platform that needs to operate reliably across markets and at scale.

This is a role for an engineer who enjoys solving complex backend problems, working with distributed systems and balancing the needs of a legacy platform with the opportunity to build something better.

Our robust payments processing platform, consisting of various sub-platforms, has powered SumUp’s global business for over a decade. A critical component of this platform is our Payouts team, which owns the components responsible for payout profiles and payout scheduling. These systems play a critical role in the wider payout flow: they manage how and when merchants receive their funds and support the configuration needed for reliable payouts across markets.
