Job description

**The opportunity**Unity runs its finance operations across a large connected system landscape, Workday as the financial system of record, alongside NetSuite, Zuora, Salesforce, and a range of AP, tax and revenue platforms. The Enterprise Applications team builds and owns the services and data pipelines that move money-critical data between them: invoices, refunds, credit memos, payments, revenue and vendor spend. We are looking for a Senior Backend Engineer to design and build those integrations. This is a backend engineering role first, you will be writing TypeScript services on GCP, designing APIs and event-driven pipelines, and owning them in production. The domain is finance, which means the correctness bar is high. Much of this landscape is being rebuilt. Legacy iPaaS recipes are being replaced with TypeScript services we design ourselves, and you will have real latitude over how that happens. In your first months you will own an existing production integration end to end; within the year you will be shaping the standards the rest of the team builds to. You will work directly with Finance, IT and platform teams, and your work is visible at the top of the finance organisation.**What you’ll be doing*** Design, build and operate backend services connecting Workday with upstream and downstream financial systems.
