What the job involves
- Adyen is looking for an Infrastructure Developer for its Engineering Tools team in Amsterdam
- The position involves working on a distributed, real-time, 24/7 system with interesting performance and security requirements
- The primary function will be developing tools and applications to manage and interact with the local and remote parts of our SDLC
- Instead of just consuming technologies, you will be expected to develop the glue which binds code and infrastructure together
- Together, we will be providing an elevated SDLC experience to the rest of the organization, working closely with the teams involved in the build and release process, but also with the teams that build our underlying on-premises infrastructure, such as our Kubernetes clusters, Hashicorp stack and our own private cloud
- You will be working, alongside a team of great engineers, on tooling, software and systems that aid us in maintaining a lean and performant SDLC for our feature teams
- Examples include writing bespoke local or CI tooling, working on our software testing framework or environments, design of release pipeline and associated flows
Our take
Adyen has been one of the most successful businesses in Europe over the last decade. When it went public in 2018 at a valuation of €7bn, it raised over €1bn and its share price popped on the first day, resulting in a valuation of €14bn. Its valuation has continued to climb by the billions.
Adyen competes with large players like PayPal, as well as outsized startups like Stripe, to power payments and provide other infrastructure to conduct digital transactions. Disrupters in the field have been buoyed by a strong rise in eCommerce activity, where some or all of a transaction by a customer is made either online or by mobile.
Adyen has been one of the companies riding the wave by helping to reduce the friction between a company choosing to take payments online, and actually being able to do it. That can take multiple steps and agreements across numerous countries — Adyen’s pitch is that it essentially handles all of it in the backend as a service for its users. Notable partners have included Autocanteen, a touchless self-checkout solution for the hospitality industry, and BILL, a small business-focused fintech platform.
