Sr Software Engineer II Full Time NEW

🚀 Why this role is a big deal

This is a high-impact, hands-on engineering role on our Invoicing/Billing Engineering team, where your work directly supports the monthly billing run that keeps Pax8 moving. You’ll own complex backend services end-to-end, raise the technical bar through mentorship and thoughtful design, and help modernize a legacy estate into scalable microservices — all while growing alongside Pax8’s evolving, pragmatic approach to artificial intelligence (AI) tooling in day-to-day delivery.

🌈 Life at Pax8 (and why people stay)

🧩 What You’ll Do Day-to-day

• 🧱 Build backend services that matter — design, develop, test, deploy, and support core billing and invoicing workflows that run at scale.
• 🔍 Own complex problems end-to-end — from shaping a solution to shipping it safely, monitoring it in production, and continuously improving it.
• 🧭 Modernize the platform — help drive legacy-to-microservices migration to improve scalability, deplorability, and maintainability.
• 🤝 Partner across the business — collaborate closely with engineers, product partners, and adjacent teams to land outcomes that solve real problems.
• 🧠 Lead through craft and clarity — contribute to design and code reviews, share patterns, and mentor teammates to raise quality and consistency.
• 🚨 Join the on-call rotation — with increased responsibility during monthly billing runs and lighter coverage outside billing windows.
• 🤖 Use AI responsibly to accelerate delivery — leverage modern AI tools to speed up scaffolding, refactoring, documentation, and throughput while owning correctness, performance, and maintainability.

🌟 The impact you’ll have

You’ll help ensure partners and customers experience accurate, reliable billing — month after month — while strengthening the engineering foundations behind Pax8’s marketplace. Your technical ownership and steady delivery will unlock faster change, safer releases, and a team that continuously levels up.

⭐ What You’ll Bring

• Substantial backend engineering experience, ideally building services in Java with Spring/Spring Boot in production environments.
• Proven ability to design and ship microservices and work effectively with distributed, highly available systems.
• Confidence navigating large, evolving codebases — refactoring safely, reducing risk, and improving systems incrementally.
• Strong engineering judgement around quality, testing strategy, reliability, and operational readiness.
• A collaborative mindset — you can mentor others, give constructive feedback, and influence through clarity and example.
• Comfort operating in ambiguity and making progress when the path forward isn’t perfectly defined.
• A pragmatic approach to AI-enabled tooling — you use it to accelerate real delivery (not as a substitute for fundamentals), and you take full ownership of what ships.
• Willingness to participate in on-call rotations and support critical billing windows with calm, focused execution.
