Company mission

Adyen's mission is to make payments choices easy for merchants.

Role

Who you are

  • Experienced with JavaScript
  • Comfortable with TypeScript
  • 3+ years developing software
  • Bonus: experience with a framework (we mostly use Preact and Vue)
  • Identify with the Adyen Formula: open minded with a proactive attitude, able to solve an immediate problem while factoring in the bigger picture
  • Enthusiastic about sharing your knowledge and developing yourself
  • Able to gather technical requirements and create an implementation plan
  • Comfortable with asking for and receiving constructive feedback from your colleagues regularly

What the job involves

  • We are looking for a frontend engineer that can help take our merchant onboarding experience through hosted pages to the next level
  • You will be responsible for the full life cycle of your developments. This includes communicating with stakeholders (product owners, product designers, account managers, merchants e.g.), testing, iterating purposefully, and monitoring the impact of your projects
  • You will have the freedom to identify and improve parts of the platform to make it more consistent, robust and scalable
  • There are Frontend developers in many teams and keeping in sync with this group is important for maintaining our scalability. You will collaborate across streams and time zones to make things happen

Application process

  • Ensuring a smooth and enjoyable candidate experience is critical for us
  • We aim to get back to you regarding your application within 5 business days
  • Our interview process tends to take about 4 weeks to complete, but may fluctuate depending on the role

Our take

Adyen has been one of the most successful businesses in Europe over the last decade. When it went public in 2018 at a valuation of €7bn, it raised over €1bn and its share price popped on the first day, resulting in a valuation of €14bn. Its valuation has continued to climb by the billions.

Adyen competes with large players like PayPal, as well as outsized startups like Stripe, to power payments and provide other infrastructure to conduct digital transactions. Disrupters in the field have been buoyed by a strong rise in eCommerce activity, where some or all of a transaction by a customer is made either online or by mobile.

Adyen has been one of the companies riding the wave by helping to reduce the friction between a company choosing to take payments online, and actually being able to do it. That can take multiple steps and agreements across numerous countries — Adyen’s pitch is that it essentially handles all of it in the backend as a service for its users. Notable partners have included Autocanteen, a touchless self-checkout solution for the hospitality industry, and BILL, a small business-focused fintech platform.
