The Opportunity
Phorest is expanding its Payments solutions, delivering both online and in-store payment experiences to thousands of businesses every day. As a Frontend Engineer in the Payments Pillar, you’ll play a key role in building intuitive, reliable, and high-quality user experiences that support our growing payments platform.
Working as part of one of the teams within the Payments Pillar, you’ll collaborate closely with Product Managers, Designers, Backend Engineers, and QA Engineers to deliver features that make payment experiences seamless for our customers. You’ll contribute throughout the product lifecycle, from technical design and implementation to testing, deployment, and continuous improvement.
We’re looking for someone who is passionate about creating exceptional user experiences, writing clean and maintainable code, and solving complex frontend challenges. You’ll have the opportunity to influence technical decisions, improve our frontend architecture, and contribute to engineering best practices while working on products that process millions of transactions every year.
