Salesforce Engineer

We’re Checkout.com – you might not know our name, but companies like eBay, ASOS, Klarna, Uber Eats, and Sony do. That moment when you check out online? We make it happen. Checkout.com is where the world checks out. Our global network powers billions of transactions every year, making money move without making a fuss. We spent years perfecting a service most people will never notice. Because when digital payments just work, businesses grow, customers stay, and no one stops to think about why.

With 19 offices spanning six continents, we feel at home everywhere – but London is our HQ. Wherever our people work their magic, they’re fast-moving, performance-obsessed, and driven by being better every day. Ideal. Because a role here isn’t just another job; it’s a career-defining opportunity to build the future of fintech.

Global payments are complex and ever-evolving, and our Salesforce platform is a critical component that empowers our operations, commercial, and finance teams to scale with our growth. At Checkout, our Salesforce Engineers develop and enhance the platform and its integrations, enabling our teams to manage merchant relationships, streamline business processes, and achieve operational excellence.

We're looking for an Engineer to join our Salesforce team – someone who is eager to learn, ready to contribute from day one, and excited about growing their skills within a collaborative engineering environment. You'll work closely with experienced engineers and business stakeholders across Checkout.com's portfolio, operating with a genuine customer-first philosophy.

As an engineer in this team, you will contribute to projects across the Salesforce platform and its integration ecosystem under the guidance of senior engineers. You'll gain hands-on experience designing, developing, testing, and deploying Salesforce solutions, while building a strong foundation for your engineering career at Checkout. We value curiosity, a growth mindset, and a willingness to take on new challenges as you develop your craft.

What we're looking for:

• Bachelor's or Master's degree in Computer Science, Engineering, or a related field (or equivalent practical experience).
• Foundational knowledge of Salesforce development – familiarity with Apex, Lightning Web Components (LWC), or Visualforce is a plus, even if gained through coursework, personal projects, or certifications.
• Awareness of core Salesforce concepts such as Governor Limits, declarative tools (Flow, Process Builder), and standard platform capabilities.
• Strong communication skills and a willingness to engage with both technical peers and non-technical stakeholders.
• Enthusiasm for learning agile ways of working and contributing to high-quality code in a team environment.
• Good problem-solving instincts and a collaborative attitude – you ask questions, seek feedback, and are proactive about your own growth.
• Curiosity about AI and emerging technologies – comfortable using AI-powered developer tools such as Cursor or Claude to accelerate coding, debugging, and documentation.
• Any exposure to payments or financial services is a bonus, but absolutely not required.
• A Salesforce Administrator or Platform Developer I certification is beneficial, but not mandatory.

How you'll make an impact:

• Contribute to cross-functional teams including product management and business operations, working alongside experienced engineers to deliver real outcomes.
• Support the design and development of scalable Salesforce solutions, learning industry best practices along the way.
• Stay engaged with the latest Salesforce and related technologies – absorb knowledge from your team and gradually share your own learnings.
• Write clean, maintainable Apex and LWC code on meaningful business systems, with guidance and code reviews from senior engineers.
• Take growing ownership of Salesforce features and components, developing your ability to build and operate resilient solutions.
• Learn from and collaborate with senior and mid-level engineers, absorbing best practices and developing your technical foundation within the Salesforce ecosystem.
