Senior Backend Engineer - Activation and Revenue

In the Global Bank tribe, we're building the infrastructure to provide merchants with a digital business account that empowers them to manage their banking needs. Our goal is to become the most popular banking partner for small merchants globally with an effortless, simple, and affordable experience.

As part of the Bank Activation and Revenue team, you will join a high-impact growth engine within the bank. Our mission is to guide merchants in unlocking the most value out of their SumUp Business Account during their activation journey: we aim to convert 100% of SumUp’s ecosystem users into active Bank users.

We own the critical journey from the moment a merchant opens an account until they understand how the business account can solve their business needs, making it part of their daily routine. To achieve this at scale, we are building a greenfield activation and engagement platform consisting of a series of initiatives and experiments to drive adoption and engagement of SumUp users with the business account. Your work will directly drive revenue by enabling seamless cross-selling of the entire SumUp product suite to millions of merchants.
