At SumUp, we believe small merchants are the heartbeat of our communities.

You'll be part of a global, autonomous, cross-functional team of driven, purpose-led people who take ownership, embrace challenges, and care deeply about helping businesses succeed.
As a (Senior) Backend Engineer, you'll be the technical anchor of a small, high-impact squad — bringing clarity to complex integration logic, setting the architectural direction, and helping a growing engineer reach their potential.
