Join Xplor Education's Embedded Payments team as a Fullstack Software Engineer, reporting to the Software Engineering Manager. You'll help build and scale a cloud-native payment orchestration platform that processes significant transaction volume across multiple Xplor brands. You will own features end-to-end—from API contract and database design through to the UI. You'll collaborate closely with backend, frontend, QA, and DevOps engineers to deliver high-quality software while maintaining best practices. Your responsibilities include executing the full software development lifecycle across both backend services and frontend interfaces; designing and building well-tested, well-documented features spanning APIs, data models, and UI; producing technical specifications and assessing operational feasibility for new payments features; integrating components into cohesive, production-ready systems with appropriate observability; contributing to verification plans, QA procedures, and deployment guardrails; maintaining and improving existing functionality; participating in deployment planning, on-call rotations, and incident response; using AI-assisted development tools effectively; and staying current with platform updates, security practices, and PCI compliance requirements. Tech Stack: Frontend (React with Vite, MUI, JavaScript); Testing (Jest, ESLint, Prettier, Storybook, Playwright, K6); Backend (Node.js, AWS including ECS, RDS/Aurora PostgreSQL, API Gateway, Lambda, Cognito, SQS, EventBridge); DevOps (Bitbucket Pipelines, Terraform); Payments integrations (Worldpay, Stripe, Apple Pay/Google Pay). Xplor Technologies powers experiences across fitness, recreation, golf and club, field services, laundry, education, and membership-based industries through modern vertical software, embedded payments, and AI-powered capabilities.
