We are Payd and we help hundreds of thousands of employees across Malaysia, Thailand, and Singapore reduce their financial stress by letting them access their wages before payday. This is called Earned Wage Access (EWA), it\xe2\x80\x99s huge in the west and we\xe2\x80\x99re bringing this benefit to employees across ASEAN by working with their employers and financial institutions.
EWA is just the beginning of our journey, there\xe2\x80\x99s so many more products we can build that will help millions. That\xe2\x80\x99s where you come in!

Empathetic Problem Solving: Appreciate the financial hardships faced by individuals living paycheck to paycheck, and a genuine desire to make a positive difference in their lives.
Collaborative Innovation: Build with our multinational cross-functional teams to identify and address their pain points effectively while gaining greater visibility across the business.
Escape the Repetition: Crush the monotony of doing the same tasks repeatedly, and instead, learn the intricacies, understand the nuances, and then harness the power of automation to liberate your time for more intellectually stimulating innovation.
Product Ownership: Drive end-to-end product development, from ideation to implementation and maintenance through data-driven decisions.
Continuous Learning: Expand your knowledge and stay at the forefront of technology and innovation in the AI-driven landscape. Not through certifications but rather real-world hands-on experimentation.
Simplicity over Complexity: Favour simplicity to ensure our services remain reliable and maintainable and avoid optimising problems that shouldn\xe2\x80\x99t even exist in the first place.
What about the tech?
All our code is in Git. Our services are written in Go and we make extensive use of SQL with both Postgres and duckDB. We do not use an ORM. We use AWS but our architecture remains cloud agnostic. Frontends are written in Svelte with JS and SCSS with a sprinkle of Swift and Java for native where low level device access is needed.
There\xe2\x80\x99s no need to know everything from day one! If you are stronger on one side than the other it is fine. Don\xe2\x80\x99t worry if you\xe2\x80\x99re more familiar with other languages or frameworks so long as you\xe2\x80\x99re keen on learning we can help you get up to speed.
