Strikepay Hiring for Software Engineer Job at Strabane, Northern Ireland Full Time

What we’re looking for

Strikepay is looking to hire an experienced JavaScript developer with an enthusiasm for building cutting edge and exciting new technology. Initially focussed on contactless, cashless tipping, Strikepay is a new platform for making seamless, secure payments to individuals and small businesses. Strikepay offers an exciting career at the forefront of the next generation of FinTech — working on greenfield projects where you can really make your mark on the direction and success of the company.

About the Job

You’ll join the growing Engineering team at Strikepay and be expected to deliver product features and make technical improvements and enhancements to the Strikepay platform and applications. As part of a small team you will need to be an excellent communicator and technical thinker who can take a loosely defined problem through to a valid, technically sound, thoroughly documented, tested, and implemented software solution. We move fast at Strikepay, so you’ll need to show sound reasoning when it comes to prioritising work and delivering value to customers whilst maximising quality, minimising and mitigating defects as early and as quickly as possible. As we grow, we’ll also be looking to increase the size of the team and the breadth of our skillset. We have a strong learning culture at Strikepay – you’ll be given the opportunity to learn new skills and also encouraged to share your knowledge and experience with others.

How to Apply

Send an up-to-date CV with an overview of why you’d like to work at Strikepay and what you think sets you apart from other applicants.

What Happens Next?

We’ll be reviewing your application and contacting you by email within 2 weeks to invite you for a remote interview should you meet the criteria outlined above. If selected for an interview, we will spend approximately 1 hour getting to know you and asking about your relevant experience and expertise. We will then invite you for a short, 45 minute technical interview where we’ll talk through some code, explore how you would reach a technical solution to a problem, and to better understand your approach. There will be the opportunity to ask questions about Strikepay at both of these interviews.
