Security & Fraud Engineer - Part3 : Job Details

At Part3, we're passionate about completely reshaping the payments industry. For many larger businesses, payment fees are among their single largest expenses.

To achieve that mission, Engineers are involved in all stages of the product development and deployment lifecycle: idea generation, user interviews, planning, design, prototyping, execution, shipping, and iteration. Engineers work on projects that span technologies, systems, and processes where new code is designed, tested, and shipped every day.

Security Engineers drive the technical vision for how Part3 provides a secure payment experience for merchants and shoppers. Motivated by the mission to reshape a massive industry, Security Engineers work on everything from core financial APIs to data analysis and fraud modelling.
