Join us as a Senior Software Engineer and help shape the future of Barclays Payments Merchant Services. We build secure, scalable solutions that let merchants process payments with ease. Every day, we support millions of transactions that keep businesses moving. In this role, you’ll help modernize our technology stack and create innovative payment experiences. You’ll also maintain and improve the core legacy application that powers these services.

 

Your work will make a real impact on how people and businesses pay and get paid. You’ll collaborate with teams across the business to deliver high-quality releases, assist with testing, and ensure smooth deployments. We value your ideas and encourage you to share your perspective as we transform our systems.

To be successful as a Senior Software Engineer, you should have experience with:

  • Extensive experience working with large legacy applications, including troubleshooting, adding new features and applying strategies to modernize and integrate monolithic architectures.
  • Java development, with the ability to design and implement enterprise-grade applications using object-oriented design approaches and optimize performance.
  • SQL, including writing advanced queries, tuning database performance, and ensuring data integrity across large-scale transactional systems.

Some other highly valued skills may include:

  • Designing secure and scalable RESTful APIs with clear documentation and versioning best practices.
  • Practical experience with application servers, ideally JBoss, including deploying, configuring, and tuning applications for high availability and resilience in production environments.
  • Familiarity with distributed systems concepts and modernization approaches, even if microservices adoption is limited due to legacy constraints.

You may be assessed on the key critical skills relevant for success in role, such as risk and controls, change and transformation, business acumen, strategic thinking and digital and technology, as well as job-specific technical skills.

This role will be based in Fleet.
