Job Description
Building Open VisaNet will involve collaboration with an exceptional group of software engineers, security specialists, DevOps engineers, test automation engineers, designers, analysts, payment experts, and architects across multiple geographies.
Joining this team means working in an agile cross-functional development environment, combining development, test/QA, and analysis/design skills. The team is currently responsible for building key elements of the authorization application, which is a long-term delivery making use of a proprietary internal rules language alongside exposure to Go and Kafka in a Docker and Kubernetes micro-services environment when delivering services.
Exposure to these technologies with a deep understanding of one or more and a desire to learn more is essential. More products will be added over time, which could bring more technologies into the remit of the team, so flexibility and a desire to learn is key. As Go is an evolving language, candidates with a strong background in other languages (like C, C++ or Java) and a willingness to learn Go will be considered, with world-class training resources provided to support the transition.
Working across the full spectrum of software development (including requirements gathering, design, development, QA, and deployment) and being comfortable working/leading on multiple workstreams is required.
Providing guidance to agile team members, acting as the design authority, and shaping best practices and ways of working within the team is a key aspect of this role. As a staff software engineer, leading specific project-level deliverables, maintaining stakeholder relationships with internal partners, and mentoring more junior members of the team will be expected.
Understanding the blend between technical, leadership, and payment industry knowledge is crucial for any senior technical role in the OVN Team at Visa. A willingness to learn and understand the highly complex intricacies of ISO Transaction Formats, business meanings, and specific fields alongside the complex interactions between them as business scenarios unfold is a sizable element of the role.
The role also requires providing 24x7 3rd line support to our mission-critical system with an availability SLA of 99.9999%. This includes being available to work outside standard office hours, including evenings, weekends, and holidays, as necessary to ensure the continuous and reliable operation of the system. This commitment to round-the-clock support is crucial for maintaining the high standards of service and reliability that our stakeholders and customers expect. Demonstrating a proactive approach to system monitoring and issue resolution, ensuring minimal disruption to services, is essential.
This role provides an ideal opportunity for someone with strong Software Engineering credentials who aims to increase their payment industry knowledge and experience.
This is a hybrid position. Expectation of days in office will be confirmed by your Hiring Manager.
