Which team will you be joining?

You'll be joining the Growth team, which owns merchant onboarding and activation: everything between a new account and a first live payment. It's a newly formed team taking on a new product area for Primer, so there's a lot of scope to shape both what we build and how.

Primer is remote-first and globally distributed — always will be.

What will you be doing?

  • Ship frontend features for the self-serve onboarding and platform experience, with support from more senior engineers on scoping and architecture

  • Work in React building the dashboard experience merchants use to onboard with Primer

  • Learn from a hands-on senior frontend engineer who's setting the team's conventions and standards as you go

  • Deploy your own features to production and track their impact once they're live

  • Get real exposure to how a merchant's first experience with Primer is designed and built, working closely with Design

  • Contribute to the Python backend where useful — no prior backend experience required, just a willingness to get stuck in when needed

What we're looking for

  • Experience shipping production frontend features, with growing autonomy and less need for hand-holding on the basics

  • Comfortable writing tests and thinking through edge cases and error handling, even if you still lean on others for the trickier ones

  • Genuine interest in the onboarding/activation space — the details of a merchant's first experience matter here

  • Willingness to contribute to backend Python code if required

Nice to have, not required:

  • Previous React experience

  • Experience building or integrating payment products

What you should be aware of:

  • Early-stage team means some ambiguity on process and tooling that a more established team would already have solved

  • Remote-first, high autonomy, no hand-holding — expect to figure things out rather than follow an existing playbook

✅ A typical interview process

  • An initial intro call with a Talent Partner

  • An interview with the Hiring Manager

  • Challenge Stage - Contextualised to the role

  • A final, values-alignment interview

What's the culture like at Primer?


We're building a culture where people can do their best work and be proud of the impact they have. You'll be working with people who are mission-driven, smart, and reflective, and who are genuinely invested in building exceptional products and delivering success for our merchants.

We work remotely, and have done since day one. We believe that building a successful, profitable company goes beyond proximity. We invest in our relationships through great remote working practices and thoughtfully designed face-to-face time, including workations, our annual company retreat, and access to co-working spaces across most major cities.

The work is challenging. Scaleups are a challenge, and building category-defining products is a challenge. But there's a meaningful difference between a challenge and a struggle. At Primer, the right challenge comes with the right support: strong onboarding, a collaborative environment, and a team that is genuinely invested in your success. It's never something you face alone.
