Full Stack Engineer - Billings & Subscriptions

Our Billing and Subscriptions team sits at the heart of how SumUp's merchants pay for, manage, and grow with our products. We own the billing engine, merchant wallet, and subscription experiences that underpin millions of transactions across 37 markets, and right now, we're in an exciting phase of rebuilding and expanding that foundation. We're deepening our billing capabilities to support new sales models, market expansions, and financial integrations that directly shape how small businesses experience SumUp — and this role is central to making that happen.

What you'll do

• Build and maintain backend services and frontend interfaces across our billing, contracts, and merchant wallet products
• Contribute to the refactoring of key billing components to improve reliability, data security, and alignment with our wider payments platform
• Support the expansion of our billing and wallet capabilities into new markets, helping ensure localisation requirements are met
• Take part in our weekly support rotation, handling incoming customer queries and helping maintain platform stability
• Work closely with senior engineers and product managers to deliver features end-to-end, from implementation through to production

You'll be great for this role if

• Solid experience building full stack applications, with a backend focus. Ideally comfortable with Node.js or Go, though we're open to other backend languages.
• Comfortable working with both relational databases such as PostgreSQL or MySQL and non-relational databases (such as DynamoDB, MongoDB, or Redis).
• Practical frontend experience working with React and Next.js, with the ability to write clean, typed code in TypeScript or JavaScript.
• Strong communication skills in English, both written and spoken, with the ability to give and receive clear, constructive feedback.
• A pragmatic approach to problem-solving, able to make sensible trade-offs, unblock yourself and others, and write clean, maintainable code.
