We’re reinventing payments.
In less than four years, Dojo disrupted the market to become the largest and most loved acquirer in the UK. Our payments infrastructure, purpose-built for in-person commerce, is game changing.

Now, over 150,000 customers across four countries choose to transact billions with us every year.
But we’re just getting started.

Our people are the driving force behind our success. They are our greatest investment and our ultimate competitive advantage. We hire exceptional people and give them the autonomy, trust, and ownership to thrive. The results take care of themselves.

 

The role


Our vision is to enable seamless, 24/7 transactions that feel like magic. We aspire to build a platform so extraordinary that it provides our customers with the dependability they deserve. We want transactions to be more than mere exchanges; we want them to become the backdrop for the remarkable experiences we want to offer to our customers. 



Our Shared Acquiring Services team enables the acceptance and enrichment of payments common across the Authorisations space. There is focus on ensuring cardholders have a great experience using Dynamic Currency Conversion where every decimal point matters. Ensuring the accuracy of data from schemes where every transaction is meaningful. Improving the onboarding of merchants to payment schemes like Amex so they can focus on running their business without the stress of delays.


As a Senior Software Engineer on this team, you will be responsible for maintaining and building resilient, and highly-available backend services that are the foundation for Dojo’s payments. We are looking for an engineer with a deep background in mission-critical systems and a passion for solving complex architectural challenges.


What you will do

  • Work as part of a cross-functional product squad to deliver exciting features for our customers

  • Ensure our platform's high reliability by contributing with improvements across the stack underpinning our micro-services

  • Writing well-documented APIs for cross-functional teams to consume

  • Contribute to the more in-depth architectural decisions with sound technical grounding

  • Ensure a high rate of delivery in an agile environment, whilst maintaining a high level of quality

  • Support developers of all experience levels and foster a collaborative and open culture


What you will bring

  • In-depth knowledge of Golang and willingness to share your knowledge

  • Experience working with micro-services architectures and event-driven systems in a cloud environment

  • Understanding of hexagonal architecture, domain driven design and designing for failure

  • Experience in designing, developing and maintaining large-scale production applications

  • Product centric thinking and an appetite to work in a customer centric environment

Dojo home and away

We believe our best work happens when we collaborate in-person. These “together days” foster communication, drive innovation and spark our brightest ideas.

That's why we have an office-first culture. This means working from the office 4+ days per week.

With offices across Europe, we know a thing or two about staying dynamic. Need deep focus? Head to a quiet zone. Big ideas? Collaboration spaces have you covered. Just here for a catch-up? Our social hubs make it easy. Do work that counts, in spaces made for you.


Question: what’s curious, relentless, and customer obsessed?

If you’re keen to know the answer, you’re a third of the way to meeting our Dojo values.

If the following speak to you, let’s talk:

  • You’re curious. You have a real desire to learn and create.
  • You’re relentless. You keep going even when it’s easier not to. 
  • You’re customer-obsessed. You know how important customers are to what you do. 

 

Diversity, equity, and inclusion at Dojo

From local bakeries to well-known eateries, Dojo payments serve over 150,000 places across the UK. 

And something that’s fundamental to creating relevant, innovative products at Dojo is to build teams to reflect the diversity of the businesses we serve.

Our drive to improve diversity, equity, and inclusion is closely linked to helping employees thrive and innovating for better customer experiences.

If you care about your work, you’re curious, and you think customer-first, you have a place at Dojo.

To make sure you’re the best you can be throughout the recruitment process, let us know if you need any extra adjustments to help you thrive.
