At PPRO, we simplify access to local payments - providing a local payments platform that empowers giants like PayPal, Stripe, and Microsoft to connect with billions of consumers worldwide. We are on an ambitious, fast-paced mission to 3x our growth by 2028 - and we’re just getting started.

Our magic lies in our team of proud payments nerds. Spanning over 50 nationalities across 10+ global locations, our diverse cultures aren't a checklist; they are the competitive advantage driving our innovation. This is a people-first, high trust environment where you’ll have the autonomy to make a massive impact, own your work end-to-end, and grow through broad exposure, meaningful challenges, and continuous learning. We get things done, challenge respectfully, put the customer first, and recognise that our biggest successes are those we create as a team. If you’re ready to leave your footprint on global commerce, join us.

The Purpose:

At PPRO, our Frontend Platform team is transforming how our products are built and shipped - unlocking a frictionless, scalable path to millions of customers worldwide. We own the end-to-end frontend architecture that powers dozens of dynamic brands and products across Latin America and Europe, through a modern micro frontend ecosystem using Module Federation.

Staff Software Engineers drive PPRO's most significant decisions, leaving a lasting impact on our technical strategies, system landscape, and culture. Operating within a cross-functional team, you will solve complex technical problems, lead architectural choices, and mentor fellow engineers while coding alongside them. Ultimately, you'll build the foundations of our micro frontend platform, shaping how independent teams ship UI at scale without stepping on each other's toes.
