About the job

​

Discord is about giving people the power to create space to find belonging in their lives. We want to make it easier for you to talk regularly with the people you care about. We want you to build genuine relationships with your friends and communities close to home or around the world. Original, reliable, playful, and relatable. These are the values that connect our users and our employees at Discord.

​

Come build the future of Discord’s business with us! We are looking for impact-focused engineers to join our world-class Revenue group as we accelerate Discord’s growth through the creation of compelling paid products. These products allow us to grow our business while keeping Discord’s core functionality free, and without selling ads or user data. You will be reporting to the Engineering Manager of Payments.

What You'll Do

​

  • Work with engineers on the team to build the checkout and payments system that underpins Discord’s existing business lines, and enable new revenue streams across Web, Android, and iOS
  • Own projects end to end — you’ll be responsible for working with Product to refine requirements, creating a technical spec, implementing changes, and seeing the project through to launch
  • Work on projects to expand our payment method coverage and optimize our checkout funnel
  • Integrate with 3rd party payment gateways and other vendors to support our purchase flows
  • Support product teams by evolving our multi-tenant payments platform to enable new monetization features and product lines
  • Partner with Product, Finance and Customer Success to improve processes and workflows. Deliver experiments on new workflows / systems and iterate based on feedback
  • Work closely with Safety and Fraud operations teams to implement new fraud mitigations
  • Improve reliability, observability, and stability of Discord’s billing system

​

What You Should Have

​

  • 5+ years of software engineering experience. We primarily work in the backend (Python), but we also do some frontend work (React, Typescript). You have a background with a similar emphasis on backend development.
  • A growth mindset. You view challenges and mistakes as learning opportunities while building upon your successes. You push yourself and those around you to continuously improve.
  • A product sense. You maintain a high degree of empathy for your internal and external users, and seek feedback from them about your work.
  • A love for experimentation. You get excited when numbers move by 1%

​

​

  • Experience working in the payments/fintech domain
  • Experience integrating with Stripe, Adyen, and/or Braintree
