Senior Software Engineer at PayPal in San Jose, CA

The Customer Success and Insights Platform team is looking for a highly talented, self-driven, proven software engineer to take on the challenge of building Messaging Experiences for PayPal . As an engineer in our development team you will be responsible for the development of key building blocks of PayPal Chat and Message Center. We are looking for software engineers who are curious, fast-learning, and versatile, to join the team working to develop the next-generation of SelfService solutions that will change how billions of users self resolve issues. ChatBOT is the major contributor to help customers to self resolve the issue. You will work closely with product, architects and other teams to understand the business needs and deliver solutions to meet their needs.

At PayPal, we work together on small, collaborative teams. We’re passionate about code quality and we’re constantly – some might say, obsessively ­– finding new ways to perfect our processes and product. We’re looking for a Android Engineer to assist our Platform team.

The Help center team is responsible for finding better ways to get the right help content to delight PayPal users. The code you contribute will be part of the PayPal Consumer app found on the Android app store. And did I say this is all 100% new development work?
