Get to know us
Do you want to help us shape what the future of work will look like and how it will best embrace our life's aspirations? If this sounds like a journey you want to embark on, we may have the right role for you! PayFit is an intuitive software-as-a-service payroll and HRIS solution designed specifically for SMBs. Since 2015, we have set ourselves a mission to simplify payroll for SMBs and enable employers and employees to grow together. We are a European company operating from 3 main countries (France, Spain, and the UK) where we are supporting over 20,000 clients.
Creating a fulfilling work environment and culture is also a core mission at PayFit, and our day-to-day work philosophy is reflected in our four values:
Care: We genuinely care for others whoever they are, whatever they think.
Excellence: We aim to improve and achieve better results every day.
Humility: Staying humble and exchanging transparent feedback helps us to grow and improve.
Passion: We are the architects of PayFit's success.
A key part of our culture, and essential for our success, is also improving the diversity of our teams and building an inclusive culture where you can be yourself at work.
This is why our recruitment focuses on the skills you demonstrate, and not only on your academic background or previous professional experiences. At PayFit we understand that you can gain applicable skills through a variety of life experiences and we are interested in knowing them, too.

The position is based in France or Spain
Do you want to help shape the first experience a business owner has with PayFit, from the moment they discover us to the moment they become a customer? If this sounds like a journey you want to embark on, we may have the right role for you.
As a Confirmed Software Engineer in the Self-Acquisition squad (New Deal Tribe), you will work on one of the most user-facing products at PayFit: the online subscription funnel that enables VSB and SMB owners to discover, evaluate, and subscribe to PayFit autonomously, at their own pace.
Our go-to-market strategy is a deliberate mix of three complementary pillars: Product-Led Growth, self-serve, and sales efficiency. We build a funnel that lets the product speak for itself, converting the right prospects autonomously without any friction. For those who need guidance, we make it easy to transition seamlessly from self-serve to a sales conversation at the right moment. And by qualifying and converting customers at scale through the funnel, we free our sales team to focus their energy where it matters most: complex deals that genuinely benefit from a human relationship.
This is a full-stack role at the intersection of product engineering, conversion optimization, and user experience. In this squad, engineering is not just about shipping features: you will ship features that directly impact how hundreds of business owners become PayFit customers every month.
Build and iterate on the self-acquisition funnel (welcome.payfit.com): design, develop, and ship features across the entire funnel (pricing, payment, contract, product discovery) to improve conversion rates and the autonomous subscription experience for VSB/SMB customers.
Own features end-to-end: take full ownership of a feature from technical design to production monitoring, with autonomy
Improve engineering practices: proactively suggest and implement improvements to code quality, test coverage, tooling, and team processes
Collaborate cross-functionally: work closely with your PM and Designer to translate product specs and Figma designs into robust, user-facing experiences
Be part of AI journey: leverage AI tools to accelerate our work and explore opportunities to bring AI capabilities into the funnel. We are committed to providing an environment where you can experiment and learn.
A full-stack engineer comfortable with TypeScript and React, who can own a feature from the API design to the UI, write meaningful tests, and monitor it in production without needing hand-holding
Someone who thinks in domains: you are familiar with DDD principles (or eager to learn), you respect bounded contexts, and you naturally keep business logic clean and decoupled from infrastructure
A proactive, product-minded engineer who cares about user impact as much as code quality (and observability!), makes pragmatic trade-offs between delivery speed and technical excellence, and raises problems before they become blockers
A true team player who believes that the best outcomes come from working closely with others; you communicate clearly, challenge ideas constructively, collaborate daily with your PM and Designer, and actively help the team improve by sharing honest feedback, self-reflecting on your own contributions
A curious engineer eager to grow, who uses AI tools as a natural part of their workflow, stays up to date with what is happening in the industry, and is self-aware enough to know what they still need to learn.
A growth engineering mindset: you have experience working at the intersection of engineering, marketing, and sales, whether through CRM integrations, tracking and attribution pipelines, lead lifecycle management, or experiments designed in close collaboration with growth and go-to-market teams
Prior exposure to event-driven architecture (EDA) or messaging systems
Comfortable with adaptive ways of working: you have experience in environments where the path is not always predefined; you are at ease with Kanban, no-estimate approaches, and thrive in contexts where priorities can shift and the ability to adapt quickly is more valuable than following a rigid plan
Self-acquisition is not a side project. It is the future of how PayFit grows.
Every improvement to the funnel directly translates into more business owners choosing PayFit on their own terms, without friction, without waiting for a sales call. In a world where buyers expect to evaluate and purchase SaaS products autonomously, the self-acquisition experience is a key competitive differentiator.
As a Confirmed Software Engineer on this squad, you will not be maintaining legacy features in the background. You will be building the front door of PayFit, the experience that shapes a prospect's first impression and converts curiosity into commitment. Your work will be seen, measured, and felt by every new customer who joins us.
If you want to ship product that matters, in a squad that moves fast and takes ownership seriously, this is the right place. And if you are aiming to grow into a Senior Engineer, we will give you the mentorship, the real ownership, and the meaningful challenges to make it happen.
