Position Summary:

As a Senior Software Engineer II on our Core Billing team, you'll be an essential force behind the evolution of Pax8’s billing platform, supporting critical financial functions such as orders, invoice generation, and regional tax requirements. In this role, you will not only contribute to complex software design and development but also lead initiatives that help refine and restructure our systems. You’ll be at the forefront of our journey to modernize and migrate our monolithic invoice architecture into microservices, making an impactful difference in how businesses manage their billing needs efficiently.

In this role, you’ll work at the intersection of backend development and cross-functional collaboration. The Core Billing Team is deeply involved in a microservices migration, transforming our legacy invoice monolith into a more modular and scalable architecture. You’ll partner with teams like the Orders & Subscription Management (OSM) team to ensure smooth integration and flawless delivery of billing features. Your day-to-day work will include contributing to design discussions, implementing new features, and reviewing and challenging design choices to ensure they meet business needs and technical standards.

You’ll also take a hands-on approach to automation testing, particularly in JavaScript, to ensure our billing features are reliable and maintainable. By contributing to our automation efforts, you’ll help increase the team's efficiency and reduce potential issues in production.

To excel in this role, you’ll need to be well-versed in backend development with experience in microservices architecture. A deep understanding of billing systems—particularly related to invoice generation and handling regional tax requirements—will be highly beneficial. Your ability to navigate cross-functional collaborations with teams like OSM and challenge designs and feature requests will be key to reducing project risks and ensuring smooth delivery. Familiarity with automation testing in JavaScript will help the team meet quality standards. You’ll be able to step up, identify gaps, and be accountable for driving complex projects forward.
