You will become an expert in the card payments space. The team uses a combination of Python, C++, and Rust.
What You'll Do:
- Ensure high reliability and availability for Lithic’s API
- Drive the development of new card lifecycle features (card issuance, tokenization, and physical card manufacturing)
- Ensure that the team is delivering reliable, secure, and scalable code with minimal tech debt
- Own initiatives from planning to launch, keeping stakeholders informed and aligned along the way
- Drive efforts to improve systems and processes both within the team and across engineering
- Drive strategic planning in collaboration with the engineering manager and product manager
- Participate in the team on-call rotation

What We Do
We're making digital payments safer and easier for everyone.
Come and help us build financial infrastructure for developers and seamless products for consumers.
We started with a consumer product that reimagines the way people and businesses spend money online using ephemeral payment card numbers. Last year we launched an API on top of our transaction processing and core banking infrastructure. We made it available to other engineers, entrepreneurs, and creators through a simple, developer first API that is now used by some of the most innovative startups, fintech companies, and neobanks.
Why Work With Us
Our team is at the center of everything we do. But we know that work isn't everything, we value work life balance and quality benefits. We strive to be a place where you know your ideas are always heard, you and your teammates learn from each other and make each other better, and you know your work is impacting users and the industry at large.
