Redefine the future of live entertainment tech
Welcome to vivenu, the global leader in event ticketing tech and one of the world’s fastest-growing live entertainment tech firms. We are transforming event ticketing for global leaders like the Grammys, the Golden Globes, Stanford University and the Hockenheimring turning what was once a simple transaction into a strategic business advantage. Backed by over $65 million in funding, our platform empowers event organizers to own their brand experience, unlock deep data insights, and seamlessly integrate ticketing into their digital infrastructure.
With six offices worldwide and growing, we deliver a customizable, intuitive solution and industry-leading support that simplify even the most complex ticketing challenges – helping organizers deliver exceptional experiences and drive real growth.
Join us and build the future of live entertainment.
With over 10 million end users and usage quadrupling annually, our infrastructure now handles over 1 billion requests per month — and counting. Our API-first platform solves complex system challenges at scale — delivering performance, flexibility, and reliability for the world’s leading live entertainment brands.   This role offers an opportunity to scale and extend our payments platform to handle our ever-increasing volume and expand our global reach, while ensuring absolute reliability and technical excellence. You will manage complex financial data flows on a platform that currently integrates with over 15 payment systems. You will lead the technical challenge of building, integrating, and evolving sophisticated payment solutions that empower our customers and define our financial infrastructure.
As a Engineering Lead - Payments (d/f/m) your responsibilities will include:
  • Architectural Leadership: Define and maintain the technical direction for our backend APIs, services, and checkout experiences. Ensure high performance, scalability, and security while handling large volumes of concurrent transactions.
  • Strategic Execution: Maintain a product-oriented lens on payments and money flows to make sure we build the right way for the future. Navigate incomplete requirements to drive execution to completion, ensuring the platform remains robust as we scale.
  • Team Growth & Mentorship: Foster team productivity and technical growth. Act as a mentor for the engineering team, lead code reviews, and conduct performance reviews to uphold high engineering standards.
  • Hands-on Development: Remain deeply involved in technical implementation, particularly in building our own managed payments platform. Design, develop, and maintain services focused on payment processing, billing, and seamless transaction flows.
  • Collaboration: Serve as the bridge between technical execution and business needs. Lead cross-team collaboration with other engineering teams, product, finance, and customer support teams to resolve payment-related issues, and improve user experience and build new features the right way.
  • Integrations & Compliance: Oversee the integration of third-party payment providers and gateways (e.g., Stripe, Adyen, Braintree). Ensure adherence to data security and compliance standards.

    • What you will need to succeed in this role:
  • Experience: 10 years of total professional experience, with at least 3 years in a lead or management capacity.
  • Domain Expertise: Mandatory hands-on experience in payments, e-commerce, billing systems, or checkout flows. You understand the nuances of financial data and handling sensitive payment information.
  • Technical Proficiency: A strong foundation in backend development and API design principles as well as experience in web/full-stack development. While we use Go and TypeScript, we value engineers who can adapt quickly to our stack.
  • System Knowledge: Solid understanding of databases (NoSQL or SQL), caching mechanisms, message queues, and cloud-native environments (AWS/GCP, Docker, Kubernetes).
  • Leadership Style: A "bar-raiser" mentality: proactive, self-driven, and focused on ownership. Excellent communication and social skills, with the ability to navigate complex stakeholder environments. Able to work with a senior team, supporting them in their growth.
  • Nice-to-Have: Experience with subscription billing platforms and a deep understanding of financial ledger systems.
