About the Team/Role

We are a group dedicated to enabling payments of all sorts. We help individuals pay bills, we help businesses do the same, and we even help technology firms move funds at high volumes to facilitate their core capabilities. 

Our goal is to use our technology to make paying for anything as simple as possible behind the scenes. Our team consists of small, agile development teams focused on building state-of-the-art solutions from the ground up using the best technology available. We focus on cloud-based microservice solutions to help achieve fast, scalable results that allow our business partners the flexibility they need to compete in our competitive market. 

Our team of professionals works hard, covers for one another, and maintains a work-life balance. We own our results and we take pride in ownership in everything we do.
