R-0003807

First launch was back in 2009. So with over 15 years in the payments industry, we’ve got a story to tell.

Dojo is built to soothe customer and consumer pain points across the world for over 140,000 customers.

And today, there’s over 1000 of us in multiple locations across the UK, Ireland, Spain, and Italy.

Our mission is to empower businesses to thrive in the experience economy by creating the tools and tech that turn transactions into meaningful relationships.

We do that through sophisticated EPOS payments integrations, fast transactions, hospitality bookings, and a strong consumer restaurant app.

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.

We understand that cashflow is vital for our customers. As part of our payments squads, you’ll empower customers with accurate, personalised and timely access to their takings - taking into account complexities such as customer segment, region and volume of settlements we initiate every day. We're looking for engineers who are passionate about their craft and excited to shape the future of their products.

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 microservices
• Writing well-documented APIs for cross-functional teams to consume
• Contribute to the more in-depth architectural decisions
• 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 coach others
• Experience working in a cloud environment, preferably GCP or AWS
• Experience working with Microservices architectures and event-driven systems
• Knowledge of SQL database technologies
• 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 140,000 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.
