Partner Solutions Engineer

You’ll work alongside our Partnerships team to qualify opportunities, run technical discovery, design the integration and get the partner live. You’ll be the person a partner’s engineers trust when something misbehaves in the sandbox, and the person who can explain to their commercial team why a design choice matters.

Your day-to-day will focus on:

• Lead technical discovery with prospective and existing partners and turn it into a clear solution design using our various partner APIs such as Embed & Connect
• Build and deliver demos and proofs of concept that show how bank payments work inside the partner’s product
• Guide partners through integration, testing and launch, including webhooks, failure handling and go-live readiness
• Work with Partnerships to qualify, shape and close partner opportunities
• Build the assets that make the next integration faster, e.g. guides, sample code, Postman collections and integration checklists
• Keep us ahead of how partners use our APIs with newer tooling, including MCP and agentic commerce

• Experience as a pre-sales, post-sales or implementation engineer working directly with customers or partners
• Hands-on API experience: you’re comfortable in Postman, reading logs and debugging a failing request
• Working knowledge of OAuth, webhooks and common integration patterns
• Programming skills in at least one common language
• A solid understanding of how APIs and MCP servers work

A Real Advantage:

• Experience building integrations with payment service providers or platforms
• Knowledge of payments, eg. Direct Debit, open banking, cards and alternative payment methods
• Experience working with platforms or multi-tenant models
• Day-to-day use of AI tools in your own engineering work

You’ll probably enjoy this role if

• You’re a problem solver who likes getting stuck into the detail
• You’re curious and learn new systems quickly
• You like being consultative, asking good questions before proposing answers
• You get a kick out of helping partners grow and build something new
