Ryft is a regulated payment facilitator and authorised payment institution building the infrastructure layer for modern commerce platforms. We enable marketplaces, SaaS platforms and multi-party ecosystems to embed and monetise payments natively. Our technology handles onboarding, compliance, orchestration, split payments and revenue sharing, allowing our partners to focus on growth while we manage complexity. We are now entering the next phase of scale, expanding into new verticals and building a category-defining embedded payments platform. Are you an engineering leader who wants to own the systems that connect physical point-of-sale hardware to a modern, scalable payments platform? We are looking for a Tech Lead to head up our Card Present (In-Person Payments) squad. You will lead the technical direction and hands‑on delivery of the infrastructure that allows our merchants to take physical payments. You'll work across our C#/.NET backend on AWS, shaping how physical card taps and inserts securely communicate with our event-driven services, split funds, and settle correctly. This is a hands‑on, high-impact leadership role. You won't just be managing a Jira board, you'll be deep in the architecture, writing code, mentoring your squad, and owning the technical strategy for our physical terminal estate. You will bridge the gap between cloud infrastructure and physical hardware, ensuring our in‑person payment flows are as robust, scalable, and developer-friendly as our online ones. • In-person payments architecture: Leading the technical design for our card-present estate, ensuring low-latency, highly reliable communication between physical terminals and our AWS backend., • Terminal & Gateway Integration: Building the critical paths that connect smart payment terminals and Point of Sale (POS) systems into Ryft’s core gateway and marketplace routing logic., • Hardware-to-cloud flows: Handling the unique complexities of physical payments: offline modes, state synchronization, hardware webhooks, and complex failure modes., • Security & Compliance pipelines: Ensuring our physical payment flows remain airtight and fully compliant within heavily regulated environments., • Squad Leadership: Setting the technical standard for the Card Present squad. Breaking down complex product requirements into actionable architecture and guiding engineers through delivery., • The platform itself: Contributing to our broader event-driven C#/.NET service estate, infrastructure-as-code, and observability tooling alongside other Tech Leads., • Lead technical delivery: Architect, build, and ship end-to-end features for our card-present offering. You are the ultimate technical owner of what your squad ships., • Design for hardware-cloud correctness: Write and architect services that behave under network drops, partial failure, and hardware concurrency. Idempotency and absolute accuracy are the job, not edge cases., • Raise the bar & mentor: Improve the codebase and our engineering practices. Review code rigorously, set conventions, and level up the engineers in your squad., • Own it in production: Take real ownership of what goes live: instrumentation, alerting, and incident response for a system where physical merchants are relying on your uptime to make a living., • Harness AI, stay in control: Use AI-assisted workflows to multiply your output (we invest heavily in them) while remaining in full command of every line you ship and review., • Collaborate: Work day-to-day with your Engineering Manager, Product Managers, hardware vendors, and other squads to deliver seamless omnichannel payment features., • Technical Leadership: Proven experience leading technical projects, architecting complex backend systems, and guiding small teams of engineers to deliver high-quality software., • Strong backend engineering: Significant commercial experience building and running production backend services. Our backend is C#/.NET, so depth there is ideal, but if you're excellent in another modern typed language and will get fluent fast, we want to hear from you., • AWS in production: Hands-on experience running distributed services on AWS (ECS/Fargate, Lambda, SNS/SQS, DynamoDB or similar) and understanding the operational reality that comes with them., • Distributed systems judgement: Comfortable reasoning about service boundaries, asynchronous messaging, eventual consistency, and building resilient systems that handle downstream provider outages., • AI-augmented, engineer-first: You use AI coding tools effectively to move faster, but you review, understand, and take full ownership of the output. We are not looking for someone who ships code they can't explain., • Fast, self-directed learner: A track record of getting productive quickly in unfamiliar domains. Enthusiasm to master the complexities of hardware-software interactions matters more to us than knowing it all on day one., • POS & Terminal Integration: Existing experience integrating physical payment terminals, card readers, or Point of Sale (POS) systems into payment gateways., • Android Experience: Familiarity with Android development, specifically in the context of building or maintaining applications for smart payment terminals., • PCI-DSS & Compliance: Deep understanding of payment scheme rules, PCI-DSS compliance, EMV standards, or Point-to-Point Encryption (P2PE)., • Infrastructure ownership: Infrastructure-as-code (CloudFormation, CDK, or Terraform), CI/CD pipelines, and containerisation. If you want to build the systems that move money in a fast‑paced, collaborative environment, we'd love to hear from you. We value engineers who care about the craft, speak up with their ideas, and take pride in what they ship. You'll join a team where your voice is heard, your work matters, and there's plenty of room to grow. #J-18808-Ljbffr

OnCommerce is a global selling platform that powers a growing network of retail channels, including: • OnBuy - The only marketplace in the world to give customers instant Cashback on everything, • easyShop - An all-new marketplace created in collaboration with the easy® family of brands, • Comet - The iconic UK tech brand making its return later this year OnCommerce is growing fast, launching new brands and scaling to power the future of ecommerce. OnCommerce is constantly evolving. Everyone here plays a hands-on role in shaping what comes next, building brands that make an impact across global markets. There’s no red tape or rigid corporate structure; just smart people taking ownership and figuring things out as we build something big together. The pace is fast, priorities shift, things aren’t always perfectly set up, and you’ll often need to get stuck in and solve problems. But if you thrive in that kind of environment, you’ll have real influence, real ownership, and the chance to grow with a rapidly scaling business. OnCommerce is transforming its platform and operating model while continuing to trade live, every day, across Buyer and Seller domains. That dual demand, build the future, protect the present, doesn't run itself. This role exists to hold both at once: the standard the engineering team is held to, the resilience of what's live today, and the continuity of delivery and culture as the organisation restructures around it. This is a senior leadership role accountable for the day-to-day performance and long-term evolution of OnCommerce’s engineering function, spanning both the current platform and its transformation to a modern, composable architecture. The Head of Platform Engineering owns engineering delivery, operational resilience, and standards across all squads, ensuring strong processes translate into reliable services, predictable delivery, and high-performing teams. Working alongside the Transformation and Solution Architecture Leads, you will balance live operations with platform evolution, ensuring neither stability nor progress is compromised. Success in this role requires leading people, setting clear expectations, and driving accountability for outcomes, while making effective trade-offs between short-term delivery and long-term sustainability. • Define and enforce clear ownership boundaries across the engineering team, by domain (Buyer / Seller / Platform), holding every contributor accountable regardless of sourcing model (permanent or partner-led), • Track and report Throughput and Instability per domain, so standards are visible and enforceable, not aspirational, • Hold delivery consistent through every point of disruption the transformation introduces: nearshore/offshore onboarding, domain moves, headcount change, • Partner with the Transformation Lead to ensure structural change doesn't degrade live delivery, • Own the engineering standard across both the current platform and the target state, • Review the Transformation Lead's roadmap for engineering-standard and operational impact before commitments are made, • Own how modern and legacy architecture coexist during migration, guarding against legacy practices and assumptions leaking into the new platform, • Lead and develop engineering capability across squads (including DevOps and platform functions), • Coach and support Tech Leads to build consistent leadership standards across teams, • Foster a culture of ownership, accountability, and continuous improvement, • Identify capability gaps and support hiring, development, and succession planning, • Own resource planning, including capacity, skills mix, and on-call structure, • Establish and run a two-tier resolver model: Ops on-call for standard support and runbook-driven issues, Product Engineering (Buyer/Seller) as the resolver group for genuine engineering problems, • Build rota depth (minimum 3 engineers per domain, or full team where smaller) so resolution doesn't depend on any one individual, • Drive a genuinely blameless Post-Incident Review culture, building on the existing Incident Management SOP, • Embed secure coding practice, SAST/DAST scanning, and OWASP-aligned standards into the engineering definition of done, • Surface security risk in business terms (exposure, cost to fix vs cost to carry) and route it to the appropriate decision-maker, rather than carrying risk-acceptance decisions unilaterally, • Identify, log, and manage technical debt within day to day delivery, • Escalate strategic trade-offs (rebuild vs patch, roadmap sequencing) to the Solution Architecture Lead, owning visibility and routine remediation rather than the strategic call, • Work with Product Owners (Buyer and Seller) to translate roadmap items into scoped, sequenced engineering execution, • Own technical design and implementation choices day to day, operating within established architectural patterns without requiring sign-off for routine work, • Escalate to Product Owner Heads where scope or trade-off decisions sit above the Product Owner's remit, • Strong full-stack engineering background with Laravel/PHP, comfortable across monolith and microservices patterns, • People leadership: hiring, mentoring, performance management, • Direct experience leading an engineering transformation, restructuring teams, process, or architecture, while keeping a live, revenue-generating platform running throughout, • Strong API design and system architecture experience, • Production experience with MySQL, Couchbase or MongoDB, and Redis, • GCP, deploying and operating live services at scale, • Experience balancing legacy support against parallel investment in a target architecture, • Startup or scale-up experience, comfortable operating with ambiguity and limited resource, • Has lived through a MACH or composable architecture migration on a live, trading platform, not greenfield, and carries the scars: knows where the pain actually shows up (data consistency across services, search/catalogue re-platforming, vendor lock-in regret), • Multi-cloud or cloud-agnostic experience, enough to have an informed, opinionated view on GCP versus alternatives rather than default loyalty to whatever's currently in place, • Comfortable working beyond PHP where the future stack calls for it (e.g. Node.js, Go, Python) The salary on offer for this role is upto £100k per annum depending on experience. We also offer the following benefits: • Company Equity- In return for helping us to grow, we’ll offer you company equity, meaning you own a piece of this business we are all working so hard to build., • 25 days annual leave + Bank Holidays, • 1 extra day off for your Birthday, • Employee Assistance Programme, • Perks at Work benefit platform, • Opportunities for career development and progression OnCommerce is an equal opportunities employer. We are dedicated to creating a fair and transparent workforce, starting with a recruitment process that does not discriminate on the basis of gender, sexual orientation, marital or civil partnership status, pregnancy or maternity, gender reassignment, race, colour, nationality, ethnic or national origin, religion or belief, disability, or age.

We’re looking for a curious, rigorous, problem-hungry platform engineer (who codes!) to carry the ball as we bring Ashby to the big leagues. Ashby builds software that lets talent teams build an efficient, delightful, respectful hiring process. Similarly, you’re an engineer who wants to build a “paved road” that excellent engineering teams can safely take to the moon and back. We have notable customers like Notion, Linear, Shopify, and Snowflake. Our growth and retention metrics are best-in-class among our peers: we have tens of millions in ARR, growing >100% year over year, over 2500 customers, very low churn, and many years of runway. You probably have a good idea as to why we’re hiring for this role. We’ve listed this role twice: as a Platform Engineer and Site Reliability Engineer – our team does both, and we are open to candidates who lean towards one or the other. Hi I’m Colin, Head of EMEA Engineering. I’ve spent a number of years leading engineering teams in startups, and that has always included being close to infrastructure teams - no matter what name they’ve worn (SRE, infrastructure, platform, etc). I’ve got my hands dirty building the initial infrastructure for startups and know the value a talented infrastructure engineer brings. The rigour, the discipline, the peace and quiet when everything just hums along. Our infrastructure is in a good place for now. Nothing is static. Ashby continues to grow rapidly, putting strain on our existing infrastructure. We’re always looking to give our customers more powerful hiring software, and building new product features often requires new pieces of infrastructure. Having herded plenty of snowflakeservers in the past, I’ve learned there’s a better way. I place a lot of value on infrastructure-as-code. As a Platform Engineer at Ashby, you’ll get to dive into scaling problems, add new capabilities to our platform, and think about how our entire team interacts with infrastructure. All our own engineers own their projects end-to-end and ship with minimal oversight. We don’t put roadblocks to ensure security when common sense will do and we don’t build processes like change management boards around the lowest common denominator. But with great power comes great responsibility: we handle personal and confidential data about some of the biggest decisions we ever make at work. As we grow, more and bigger customers rely on us to be reliable and secure and how we operate internally will need to evolve. We’re at an inflection point where our ability to scale and deliver a seamless experience has a make-or-break impact – we have some of the fastest growing companies using our platform every day to hire hundreds of people per month. We need someone like you to make good decisions, debug thorny issues, and build us a future-proof platform that can withstand this scale. Our small but mighty infrastructure team has set up a secure and simple environment (we don’t believe in spinning up a new service unless necessary!) for our growing product team to build in. That’s where you come in: you, too, will own projects end-to-end and have an impact on core parts of the Ashby developer and user experience. For instance, you could work on: • Optimize our homegrown ultra-dynamic recruiting DSL-to-SQL compiler, and create tools to help developers do so, • Create automated guardrails for the security and privacy of our customer data, • Help our developers ship features fast through canary deploys, gradual rollouts and feature flags, while keeping complexity manageable and reducing downtime, • Work with the business and the engineering team to define SLOs and implement the corresponding SLIs, • Ensure all communication with external services supports retries and circuit-breakers, • Implement the infrastructure to support an event-driven architecture and data warehouse We’re looking for someone who can build systems that an engineer would like to work with: mature and boring but open-minded and approachable. We have to balance reliability with flexibility. Software and its availability are now mission critical to almost every working professional. To be in an SRE in today’s world, you have to be extremely comfortable evaluating risk, those you take and those others take. • You never stop. You get weirdly obsessed about a problem that doesn’t yet make sense, turn it every which way in your head until the explanation dawns. You’ll search every rock, inventory every clue, hunt every mismatch. We do that, too – together we’ll be armed with state-of-the-art monitoring tools and an impressive amount of data, and join you in the adventure., • You don’t take shortcuts. You’re speaking up for the future user, the edge case, the doomsday design. You know product engineers want to build it with you, and see them as allies, where you give them the power and knowledge to access greater things., • You’re someone who cares about what you do and the team you do it with, and want to work with others who do as well. You’ll be on interview panels choosing your next colleagues, and you’ll take that seriously. You only want to work with people who make you better, and want to make you better., • You’ve built infrastructure at a slightly later stage than Ashby is at – you know how to deal with millions of data points, have seen great (or not great) infrastructure make or break customer experience, and have automated everything from provisioning to monitoring and release process., • You’re a Swiss army knife (all nationalities welcome). You’ll get every hard problem the company faces. You’ll get to do infrastructure updates, security enforcements, database optimization, Kubernetes debugging, and digging through Typescript traces figuring out what doesn’t work. All that makes for a pretty specific kind of role, and the job isn’t to everyone’s tastes! You should not apply if: • You don’t want to make your own decisions on what is the best paved road to build for Ashby, and expect a lead or manager to make the final call on what that is. Our leads (and managers) give ample commentary and feedback on technical decisions and how they’re made, but you ship what you want to build and are accountable for it., • You hate SQL. We have a lot of features built around making the best out of data, and our platform engineers also sometimes dive into a gnarly report or advise engineers on a more performant data model to use., • You don’t want to code. Our SREs are some of our best software engineers and they are just as responsible for the application as the other engineering teams – albeit at a platform level. Reviewing code and submitting code changes will be part of your day to day., • Your primary mode of communicating best practices to engineers is live meetings. We’re a very async culture and written communication (and code) is how changes get made. As an Ashby SRE, you will need to share new tooling and best practices with engineers faster than your next meeting opportunity will take you., • You’ve never delivered a project, on your own, without someone prodding you for updates. We have no project or delivery managers to fill your calendar with busy work, but the flip side is you have to do your project management, seek the help you need to get unstuck and cut scope when it’s worthwhile. I’m sharing our tech stack with the caveat that we don’t require previous experience in it: TypeScript (frontend & backend), Node.js, React, Apollo GraphQL, Postgres, Redis. We use Datadog and Sentry on 100% cloud-based (AWS) infra. We take developer experience and reliability seriously: all engineers are on call in a follow-the-sun model, and everyone contributes to developer tooling. As engineers, we are used to tooling that makes us better at what we do. When we started Ashby, we saw the opposite with Talent Acquisition software. Recruiting teams were leveling up how they did their work, but instead of software meeting this new standard, it held them back. Scheduling a final round is an excellent example. Recruiting teams wanted to schedule candidates faster, track interviewer preparation and quality, and do it with half the headcount. A recruiter needed to manually collect availability from the candidate, identify qualified interviewers, perform “Calendar Tetris” to find who is available to interview the candidate, schedule on the earliest date possible, and make any last‑minute adjustments as availability changed. They must do this while considering the interview load on each individual and whether interviewers need to be trained and shadowing others. As hiring managers, we know TA is a critical function, and as engineers, we know software can do better. So, we built and continue to build Ashby to give TA teams the highest standard of tooling. Software that’s intelligent and powerful. Software that provides insights into where they’re failing and automates or simplifies many of the tasks they’re underwater with. We want other functions and departments to be jealous of what TA teams can do with Ashby, and today they often are! Our Engineering Culture Is Motivated By Abhik And Benji’s (our Co‑founders) Belief That a Small Talented Team, Given The Right Environment, Can Build High-quality Software Fast (and Work Regular Hours!). We Do It Through • Minimal process with ownership over decisions normally made by product and design, • Natural collaboration and deliberate communication, • Investing in tools and abstractions that give us leverage, • Putting effort into building a diverse team The best engineers we’ve worked with delivered reliably magical outcomes. They took customer problems and relentlessly drove them to solutions that were not only successful but often brilliant and creative. While they did this with minimal oversight, stakeholders were never in the dark as to what was going on, and no setback was a surprise. Traditional product‑development processes aren’t meant for the best engineers. Their purpose is to create consistent outcomes regardless of the engineer’s skill. But, consistency comes at the expense of an engineer’s time and freedom—both ingredients necessary to generate those magical outcomes. As a result, process stifles the best engineers and doesn’t give others the opportunity to practice the behaviors that made the best engineers the best. At Ashby, we want to build an environment that encourages every engineer to be their best. So, at Ashby, every Engineer runs their project. Product Managers (and Designers) build strategy, do customer research, and hand off problem briefs to Engineers. Engineers take on the rest: they research the problem, write product specs, build wireframes, and implement their solution end‑to‑end. We rely on engineers, not process, to push information outward to the relevant folks (e.g., Product Managers) and pull folks in to help (e.g., Designers, Infra). It’s a new level of ownership for many engineers, but we’d rather an engineer fail a bit and coach up their skills than use process as a crutch. Not everyone succeeds in our culture, but those who do thrive. Our engineering team consists of lifelong learners who are talented but also humble and kind. These attributes create an environment where collaboration happens naturally. We combine this with research, prototyping, and written proposals to see around corners and get feedback from the team across time zones. Focus time is something that we hold sacred, and, with thoughtful and deliberate communication, engineers are in less than 2h meetings per week. We also meet in person at least twice a year, once as a department and once as a company. You also have a small budget to meet up with folks in your city/region. We Built Ashby With The Quality, Breadth, And Depth That Many Customers Would Expect From Much Larger Teams Over Larger Time Scales. We’ve Done This Through Investment In • Great developer tooling. Our CI/CD takes about 10 minutes, and we deploy at least 15x a day. A debugger that works out of the box. Everyone on the team has contributed to our developer experience., • Building blocks to create powerful and customizable products fast. At the core of Ashby is a set of common components (analytics modeling and query language, policy engine, workflow engine, design system) that we constantly improve. Each improvement to a common component cascades throughout our app., • AI-powered tooling. We think of AI as a way to automate the mundane parts of building and maintaining high-quality software. We use a combination of third‑party and internally built tools that, for instance, auto‑triage customer issues, suggest fixes, prototype ideas, generate production‑ready code, and conduct code reviews. Engineers have an unlimited token budget (but are not measured on it)., • Competitive salary and equity., • 10-year exercise window for stock options. You shouldn’t feel pressure to purchase stock options if you leave Ashby —do it when you feel financially comfortable., • Unlimited PTO, and we will encourage you to take it., • A minimum of 12 weeks of fully paid parental leave, covered by Ashby. For folks outside the US, it may be longer to be in line with regional requirements., • Generous equipment, software, and office furniture budget. Get what you need to be happy and productive!, • $100/month education budget with more expensive items (like conferences) covered with manager approval., • If you’re in the US, we offer top‑tier health insurance for you and your dependents, with 100% of premiums covered by Ashby. In other countries, we provide high‑quality supplemental health insurance for you and your dependents, also fully covered by us. Ashby’s success hinges on hiring great people and creating an environment where we can be happy, feel challenged, and do our best work. We’re being deliberate about building that environment from the ground up. I hope that excites you enough to apply. Ashby provides equal employment opportunities (EEO) to all employees and applicants for employment without regard to race, color, religion, sex, national origin, age, disability, genetics, sexual orientation, gender identity, or gender expression. We are committed to a diverse and inclusive workforce and welcome people from all backgrounds, experiences, perspectives, and abilities. Compensation Range: £138K - £224K #J-18808-Ljbffr
