Senior Software Engineer, Payments, Group Digital, INGKA Group
What you need to know
We are building seamless payment capabilities for many people. Therefore, we are searching for Senior software engineers who are excited about technology and innovative ways of working and want to be part of shaping the future of payments at IKEA!
IKEA’s vision is to “create a better everyday life for the many people” by offering a wide range of well-designed, functional home furnishing products at prices so low, that as many people as possible can afford them.
How do we do this? We transform the complex landscape of payments into easy-to-use platforms. We create an environment that celebrates new ideas. We take a data-driven approach to continuous improvement and create secure, scalable, and resilient systems. And, in true IKEA fashion, we do it in the spirit of collaboration and togetherness.
The opportunity
You will help us build and improve new payment capabilities. You’ll be part of a global team taking care of many thousands of payments per minute for more than 30 markets worldwide. As part of the Payment Direct Integrations team, you’ll be part of a tech-savvy engineering group of people where we promote innovation, learning, curiosity and best practices. We love to try new stuff and be the spearhead for others.
We embrace DevOps and we enjoy being accountable for what we deliver since we commit our code until we make it available for our customers and beyond! Observability, security, scalability and resilience are important cornerstones of the services we build.
