Lead Software Engineer
Xendit provides payment infrastructure across Southeast Asia, with a focus on Indonesia and the Philippines. We process payments, power marketplaces, disburse payroll and loans, provide KYC solutions, prevent fraud, and help businesses grow exponentially. We serve our customers by providing a suite of world-class APIs, eCommerce platform integrations, and easy to use applications for individual entrepreneurs, SMEs, and enterprises alike.
Our main focus is building the most advanced payment rails for Southeast Asia, with a clear goal in mind — to make payments across in SEA simple, secure and easy for everyone. We serve thousands of businesses ranging from SMEs to multinational enterprises, and process millions of transactions monthly. We’ve been growing rapidly since our inception in 2015, onboarding hundreds of new customers every month, and backed by global top-10 VCs. We’re proud to be featured on among the fastest growing companies by Y-Combinator.
We build digital payments infrastructure for Indonesia focusing on platform businesses. While accepting payments digitally has become easier, it is extremely challenging for platforms to manage payments across multiple parties (e.g. suppliers, vendors). Our team streamlines accepting and sending money for platform businesses. Our solutions enable platforms and marketplaces to onboard new partners, route and split payments, and easily monitor their payments infrastructure.
