Summary
As a member of the Twilio Billing Platform team you will scale the financial data pipeline that processes millions of transactions every day. You will reduce risk to customers by detecting and preventing fraud. You will join a team obsessed with accuracy and testability — if a third party service converts our decimal values to floating point, we detect the rounding errors. We are looking for engineers who appreciate this level of scale & automation and enjoy exploring bleeding-edge techniques in financial processing.

Ideal Candidate
* A Bachelor's or Master's degree in Computer Science or Computer Engineering, or equivalent experience. * 4+ years in industry as a developer working with mission critical systems or billing systems. * Experience with at least one database system. **Bonus points:** * You have experience owning production systems. * You have experience with Scala, Functional Programming, Distributed Systems. * You know AWS (EC2, Dynamo DB, SQS). * You have integrated with a third party API. * You enjoy finding why one rogue message out of 30 million escaped billing.
