The Engineering Team: 

Our focus is teaming with smart engineers who are passionate about their craft and excited to build software for our unique solutions in the space. 

At Braintree, developers have the chance to work on various teams and stacks. Although most of our software is written in Ruby, we believe in using the best tool for the job. For example, we’ve written data platforms in Clojure, payment gateways in Java, and contextual commerce in Python. Here’s more: 

• Communication is key to our process, and we don’t want to hinder it with walls. Many teams program in pairs, which means you always have another set of eyes to help you. 
• We practice test-driven development and believe that it helps us deliver simple solutions focused on real customer needs. We have no QA department – developers test, release and monitor their own code. 
• We keep the team in sync with daily stand-ups and have regular retrospectives to discuss things that are going well and opportunities for improvements. 
• We value unique perspectives brought by diverse backgrounds and experiences. A broad range of ideas and perspectives help us to create the best possible product.
