Your contributions will help shape how Mastercard standardizes, automates, and optimizes digital payments across the global B2B landscape.

This is a hybrid position based in Sandyford, Dublin, requiring three days per week onsite.

Role:
• Lead the design, development, and deployment of high-quality Java microservices that integrate with modern front-end frameworks and third-party applications.
• Apply 12-factor app principles to ensure robust, scalable, and cloud-ready solutions.
• Contribute to all phases of the development lifecycle including planning, coding, testing, reviews, and delivery.
• Collaborate closely with engineers, product managers, TPMs, and test engineers to align technical and business goals.
• Perform code reviews, submit and manage Git pull requests, and support continuous improvement.
• Ensure adherence to Mastercard's engineering best practices and compliance with enterprise security, operations, and architecture standards.
• Optimize application performance and reliability for large-scale, high-traffic systems.

All About You:

• Extensive experience as a backend Software Engineer or Software Developer in a fast-paced, collaborative environment.
• Strong experience developing backend applications using Java.
• Proven expertise in designing and developing secure, scalable microservices that handle high traffic volumes, with strong knowledge of microservices architecture, RESTful API design, and integration patterns.
• Advanced SQL knowledge with databases like PostgreSQL, Oracle, etc., and experience building solutions that scale.
• Hands-on experience with cloud platforms such as AWS or Azure.
• Experience with CI/CD practices, containerization (Docker, Kubernetes), DevOps practices, automated testing, and version control using Git.
• Experience working in an Agile development environment.
• Excellent verbal and written communication skills, with the ability to articulate complex ideas clearly and concisely to both technical and non-technical stakeholders.
• Strong analytical and problem-solving abilities, with a focus on improving processes to accelerate delivery, foster innovation, reduce costs, and improve quality.
• Bachelor’s degree in Computer Science, Engineering, or a related field. Equivalent practical experience will be considered.

Preferred Qualifications:
• Experience in the commercial card or corporate banking space.
• Familiarity with enterprise payment systems or financial services infrastructure.
• Demonstrated ability to manage or lead complex technical projects and mentor junior developers. Corporate Security Responsibility
