What’s this team like at Etsy?

The Payments Compliance squad's mission is to empower millions of sellers and buyers to be compliant with local laws and regulations. Doing this in a global marketplace and at Etsy’s scale is no easy feat. As Etsy expands to more and more countries, our team is critical to the success of that growth.

Here are a few questions our team helps answer:

Are the sellers who they say they are? What are the details of their business? Are they on any sanctions lists?
Can we safely pay them out to their bank accounts?
What local laws apply to this seller given their sales this year (e.g INFORM, DSA, DAC7 etc) ?
What happens when a seller moves from one country to another? How does that affect their business?

We value autonomy, understanding, and optimism in our work and strive to foster an environment where individuals are supported, respected, and empowered to take ownership and collaborate effectively.

What does the day-to-day look like?

You will work collaboratively with multiple engineers at a range of levels to support you in gaining critical onboarding about how Etsy designs and writes software.
Contribute at all levels of our web application stack, ranging from front-end web interfaces (HTML, CSS, TypeScript, React) to back-end technologies (PHP and MySQL) too. It's okay if you don't have experience with all of these!
Continuously learn from your teammates and share your own insights with them.
Push code to production early and often using our continuous deployment systems.
Empathy, ownership, communication, and technical skill are valued equally.
Participate in code and design reviews and maintain high standards of code quality.
Of course, this is just a sample of the kinds of work this role will require! You should assume that your role will encompass other tasks, too, and that your job duties and responsibilities may change from time to time at Etsy's discretion, or otherwise applicable with local law.
