Job description

Overview

We’re looking for an experienced Software Engineer to join our growing team in Central London, working on a new product to help make a big impact to our customers by removing manual processes in their finance team. You will have the opportunity to help ship premium products to our clients quicker, plus see the impact of your code on the 5,000+ businesses we work with. Tipalti Engineering describes the driving force behind our success as our technology ecosystem that is rich, complex, and constantly evolving as we continue to ship new features and scale our platform globally.

You’ll be joining a team that combines the pace and ownership of a startup with the stability and impact of a global fintech leader. We encourage curiosity, thoughtful debate, and pragmatic engineering—while always keeping the customer at the centre of what we build. At Tipalti, you’ll collaborate with a diverse, international group of engineers, product managers, and designers who are collectively shaping the future of financial operations.

The Role

As a Software Engineer, you’ll play a key role in expanding Tipalti’s product offering into new areas. You’ll work in a cross-functional squad alongside Product and Design to shape ideas, turn them into scalable solutions, and deliver high-quality software end to end. You’ll contribute across the stack, including backend APIs and services, to deliver new functionality that directly improves how our customers manage expenses and procurement at scale. Our current tech stack includes React, Node.js, JavaScript, and TypeScript. That said, our interview process is technology-agnostic. We care far more about strong engineering fundamentals, problem-solving skills, and the ability to learn quickly than prior experience with a specific framework. We operate a hybrid working model, with three days a week in our Central London office (Monday, Tuesday, and Thursday).

What You’ll Do

• Design, build, and maintain end-to-end features for our new team.
• Collaborate closely with Product Managers and Designers to shape technical and product decisions
• Develop and evolve backend APIs and microservices to support new and existing functionality
• Write clean, well-tested, and scalable code across the full stack
• Take an active role in code reviews, design discussions, and pair programming
• Contribute to a highly collaborative environment where we learn, build, and succeed together

About You

• You’re passionate about learning, sharing knowledge, and improving how teams work
• You enjoy collaborating with engineers and cross-functional partners, both in person and remotely
• You take ownership and pride in delivering high-quality, reliable solutions
• You care deeply about good system design, testing, and long-term maintainability

Why Join Tipalti?

• Open, inclusive, and supportive engineering culture
• Build products used by some of the world’s fastest-growing companies
• Equity options in a late stage scale up
• Breakfast and lunch provided three days a week in the office
• Private Medical and Dental cover
• £100/month mobile allowance and £26/month internet allowance
• Free breakfast and snacks in the office
• 25 days of paid time off, plus bank holidays
