Full Job Description
THE ROLE

Intuit is bringing on a Principal Forward Deployed Engineer to sit inside our highest-stakes payments work: strategic customers moving real payment volume onto QuickBooks Payments, and strategic partners building QB Payments and QB Invoicing directly into their own products. This is not a generic "connect an API" integration role. It's the technical seat at the table when a business migrates live money movement off Stripe, Braintree, PayPal, Square, or Adyen - where a mishandled token, a missed reconciliation edge case, or an overlooked chargeback flow has immediate customer and revenue consequences.

You will own these engagements technically end-to-end: discovery, migration design, execution, cutover, and the reusable tooling that makes the next migration faster. You'll also be the hands-on technical lead when a strategic partner needs QB Payments and QB Invoicing woven into their own solution - not handed a spec, but co-building it with them.

Responsibilities

WHAT YOU'LL DO
  • Own the technical relationship with strategic customers migrating payment processing to Intuit, from discovery through cutover and stabilization.
  • Design and execute migration plans for moving payment data, stored payment methods and tokens, and transaction history from processors like Stripe, Braintree, PayPal, Square, and Adyen onto QuickBooks Payments.
  • Partner directly with key strategic partners integrating QB Payments and QB Invoicing into their own products, acting as the hands-on technical lead for their build.
  • Architect for multi-entity payment structures, complex reconciliation, and payment token migration that hold up under real, live transaction volume.
  • Design explicitly for the parts of payments that are easiest to get wrong: refunds, chargebacks, deposit reconciliation, cash flow timing, and integrating credit or financing products.
  • Turn each strategic engagement into reusable migration tooling and playbooks, so every subsequent migration is faster and lower-risk than the last.
  • Serve as the technical escalation point when a migration hits an edge case in production - debug across the API, ledger, and reconciliation layers.
  • Travel to strategic customer and partner sites as needed to unblock critical migrations and integrations.


Qualifications

WHO YOU ARE

  • A genuine payments and fintech expert with deep, hands-on knowledge of payment APIs and integrations - not conceptual familiarity, but scars from building against them.
  • Direct experience migrating payments to or from processors such as Stripe, Braintree, PayPal, Square, or Adyen.
  • Working knowledge of multi-entity payment structures, complex reconciliation, and payment token migration.
  • Command of the operational realities of payments: refunds, chargebacks, deposit reconciliation, cash flow implications, and integrating credit or financing products.
  • 10+ years of software engineering experience, including meaningful time in a forward-deployed, solutions engineering, or customer/partner-facing technical role.
  • Comfortable owning a technical relationship end-to-end with a strategic customer or partner, including the hard conversations when a migration hits a snag.
  • Strong communication skills - able to explain migration risk and tradeoffs clearly to both engineering counterparts and business stakeholders.
  • Willingness to travel to customer and partner sites as needed.

NICE TO HAVE

  • Experience building payment integrations from the platform or PSP side, not only as a consumer of one.
  • Familiarity with PCI compliance and tokenization standards, including network tokens.
  • Prior work on payments for multi-sided marketplaces or embedded finance products.
