Founding Engineer (Payments)

Own the architecture. Then go build it. VEEP is a Singapore vehicle-leasing and mobility group building the VEEP Orchestration Layer — a provider-agnostic platform that routes payments across providers, automates receivables and payables, and reconciles everything into one ledger. You would be engineer #1. You own the architecture and you build it — hands-on, not management. Your first mission: take payment links and the gateway live. What you will ship first (90 days) • Solution architecture for the orchestration layer —signed off before build. • Provider-agnostic connector framework and a unifiedpayment API. • Airwallex integration live: hosted payment links andcard collections. • PayNow collections (QR / bank rail). • Reconciliation core: invoice → link → paid →auto-reconciled into our finance modules. Responsibilities • Design and build the connector framework so any new provider is added without changing the core. • Build and operate the unified payment API (collections, payouts, links, refunds) with idempotency and failover. • Own webhook / event ingestion and normalisation across providers. • Build the multi-rail reconciliation engine and normalised ledger. • Secure credential handling, audit trails, and sensible observability. • Set the engineering bar; mentor engineer; work directly with our finance team (FM, AR, AP, CS users). You will thrive here if you have • 5+ years backend engineering, strong in TypeScript / Node.js or an equivalentmodern stack. • Shippeda production payment-gateway / PSP integration (e.g. Airwallex, Stripe, Adyen,Wise) — you have moved real money. • Ahead for event-driven / webhook systems; idempotency, and failure modes, plus strong API design. • Worked with reconciliation, ledgers, or double-entry accounting. • The confidence to own architecture decisions solo and defend them simply. Bonus points to have • Cloudflare Workers / serverless platforms. • The Singapore payments landscape: PayNow, FAST, virtual accounts. • Xero or accounting-platform APIs. • Early-stage/ founding-engineer experience. Why join us • Own the architecture end to end — you set the technical direction from day one. • A greenfield build with real money movement and immediate business impact. • Shape the team and standards as the founding engineer of the platform.
