Careers

Build the payment
infrastructure for Nigeria.

We're a small, early team in Port Harcourt. If you want equity, ownership, and the chance to work on infrastructure that moves real money at scale — keep reading.

Why work at AutoPay

We're not for everyone. Here's an honest description of what it's like here.

✓Small team — your work has immediate, visible impact on a real product
✓Equity from day one — everyone who joins early is a co-owner
✓Real technical problems — payment scheduling, idempotency, job queues, open banking
✓Remote-friendly — we work async, results matter more than hours
✓Direct line to the founder — no layers, no process, just build
✓Building in public — your work is visible and credited externally
Open Roles

We're hiring two people.

Both roles are founding-team positions with meaningful equity. We're not hiring contractors — we're hiring co-builders.

Engineering
Backend Engineer — Payment Infrastructure

You'll own the core scheduling engine: BullMQ job queues, Paystack Direct Debit integration, retry logic, webhook processing, and the NestJS API. This is the most critical technical role at AutoPay.
