About Satispay

Satispay was born to revolutionise everyday payments – making them simple, fair, and accessible to everyone. Now, the focus has moved even further, aiming to shape the future of money.

We're a movement empowering millions of people, driven by a shared purpose to tackle big challenges. And we’re just getting started. We move quickly, think boldly, and trust each other to challenge the norm, learning and growing as we go.

If you’re looking for more than just your next job – if you want to build something impactful with a talented team – you’re in the right place.

What you’ll be doing

As a Senior Software Engineer, you’ll play a key role in architecting and leading the development of a next-generation, highly scalable, and performant core frontend platform. Here’s what your day-to-day will look like:

• Provide technical leadership – Guiding and mentoring frontend developers, conducting code reviews, and leading knowledge-sharing sessions.

• Enforce coding standards – Ensuring adherence to design patterns and best practices for frontend development.

• Establish the technical vision – Setting the foundations for a scalable, maintainable, and high-performance UI platform

• Evaluate and select technologies – Researching and choosing modern frontend technologies, frameworks, and tools.

• Design scalable systems – Creating systems that support scalability and modularity to handle evolving business requirements.

Our frontend stack is built around TypeScript and React, with state management handled via TanStack Query, Zustand, and Jotai. We use Tailwind CSS and headless libraries like Radix UI or Base UI to power a modular, accessible design system shared across teams. Validation and functional programming are supported through Zod, fp-ts, and effect.

We also use GraphQL, Next.js in selected projects and AWS Lambda for serverless functions. Our testing strategy includes Vitest, React Testing Library, and Playwright for E2E testing.

Everything runs on AWS, with CI/CD pipelines managed via CodeBuild, CodePipeline, and GitHub Actions. Monitoring and observability are handled with Sentry and Kibana.

Expect challenges, collaboration, and the freedom to bring your ideas to life. Things change quickly here, so be ready to adapt, take initiative, and shape your role as we grow.

Who we’re looking for

We need a problem-solver who loves teamwork and gets things done. If you're curious and ready for real ownership, you'll fit in! Does this sound like you?

• Extensive experience – 8+ years in front-end development, with at least 4+ years in a frontend architect or technical leadership role

• Expertise in JavaScript frameworks – Proficient in JavaScript, TypeScript, React, and state management libraries like Tanstack Query

• Experience with design systems – Skilled in using component libraries (e.g., Storybook, Headless UI, Tailwind CSS) and collaborating on UI/UX discussions

• Strong understanding of build systems and APIs – Experienced with modern front-end build systems (Vite, Rollup, Nx/Turborepo) and deep knowledge of RESTful APIs, GraphQL, and WebSockets

• Proficiency in production environments – Experience maintaining Node.js applications in production, including using observability/logging tools (e.g., Grafana, Cloudwatch, Logstash) and maintaining unit, integration, and E2E tests

• Performance Optimization – Implementing techniques like lazy loading, code splitting, and caching to ensure optimal application performance.

Don't worry if you don't tick every box. We believe in the power of different viewpoints and strengths. Your unique perspective is important as we build something special. If you're passionate and can make a difference, we truly encourage you to apply.
