About us:

The global hiring revolution is shaping a future where talent can thrive everywhere, driving innovation and progress on a global scale. Multiplier is at the forefront of this change. By removing barriers and simplifying global hiring, we’re creating a level playing field where businesses and individuals – (like you) – can compete, grow, and succeed, regardless of geography.

Multiplier empowers companies to hire, onboard, manage, and pay talent in 150+ countries, quickly and compliantly. Our mission is to build a world without limits, where ambitious businesses can look beyond borders to build their global dream teams. Our unified employment platform, complete with world-class EOR, AOR and Global Payroll products, means it has never been easier to seize the global hiring opportunity.

As a Lead/Staff Software Engineer, you will build and scale Multiplier’s core global platforms powering HRIS, Time & Attendance, Spend Management, Onboarding and Off-boarding, Salary Revisions, employee benefits such as Insurance, IT Assets, and Background Verification, along with our Contractors and Pre-sales & Implementation products, across web and mobile experiences. You will contribute to strategic pillars spanning Company and Employee Experience, working closely with cross-functional partners to translate revenue goals, compliance requirements, and customer needs into robust, configurable systems. The role emphasizes delivering highly reliable, scalable platforms while maintaining strong engineering velocity, system health, and clear ownership in a fast-growing global environment.

This is a high-impact role that works closely with product, compliance, and operations teams to solve some of the most challenging engineering problems. If you are passionate about building scalable systems, simplifying complexity, and driving technical excellence through code and collaboration, we would love to have you.

What will I be doing?
