Job description

We are looking for two experienced Senior Software Engineers to join our team in Central London. This role is focused on building and enhancing our Expenses and Procurement product suite.

Tipalti Engineering

Our tech teams are the engine behind our business. Tipalti’s technology ecosystem is extremely rich, and we continually add new features to our products, ensuring we meet our clients' needs at scale. Our tech teams maintain a fast-paced, start-up vibe that encourages innovation and critical thinking.

At Tipalti, you’ll have the opportunity to work with a diverse, global team of engineers, developers, and product leaders who are collectively building the future of our best-in‑class product suite as we transform financial operations.

As part of a cross‑functional team, you will collaborate with Product and Design to define, code, test, build, and maintain our tools. You will also contribute to the backend APIs and services to deliver completely new functionalities that help our customers.

Our current tech stack is primarily React, NodeJS, JavaScript, and TypeScript. However, our interview process is technology agnostic and focused on assessing previous experience and problem‑solving skills. We hire for great engineers, as the best are able to quickly learn and master new technologies, so prior experience with our specific stack is not required.

What will you do

• Design, build, and maintain end‑to‑end features for our Expenses product.
• Collaborate with Product Managers and Designers to define technical and product solutions.
• Develop and enhance backend APIs and microservices to support new functionalities.
• Write clean, testable, and scalable code across the full stack.
• Participate actively in code reviews, design discussions, and pair programming to promote knowledge sharing and technical excellence.
• Work in a highly collaborative environment—we code together, learn together, and succeed together.
