Job Description
Ready to take your career global?
Make your mark at one of the biggest names in payments. We’re looking for a Senior Software Engineer – Agentic Commerce to join our ever-evolving agentic commerce engineering team and help shape the future of global commerce.
What you’ll own
We are building the future of autonomous commerce. As AI agents begin to discover products, compare options, build carts, and initiate purchases on behalf of consumers, the payments layer needs new infrastructure for trust, identity, user intent, authentication, tokenization, fraud signals, and real-time transaction visibility.
As a Senior Software Engineer, Agentic Commerce, you will join a greenfield engineering squad building secure, reliable backend services that allow AI agents, merchants, payment platforms, and risk systems to work together in real time.
AI Agent Integrations
- Design and build secure checkout and payment APIs that AI agents can invoke reliably and deterministically, including support for concepts such as UCP, ACP, AP2, agentic tokens, delegated credentials, verifiable intent, and MPP.
- Implement flows that capture and validate agent context, user intent, delegated authority, payment credentials, risk signals, transaction evidence, and downstream reporting data.
- Integrate agentic commerce capabilities with global payment platforms, gateways, checkout, tokenization, authentication, fraud, reporting, and merchant-facing systems.
API & SDK Development
- Build merchant-facing APIs, SDKs, documentation, sample flows, sandbox experiences, and developer tools that make agentic commerce easier to adopt.
- Design for clear contracts, predictable errors, strong validation, fast testing, and measurable time-to-first-transaction.
- Use feedback from internal teams, external developers, pilots, and partner integrations to improve the platform quickly.
Backend Engineering
- Build Java-based backend services that support real-time, high-trust payment workflows with strong performance, observability, security, and operational discipline.
- Own features from design through implementation, testing, deployment, monitoring, and iteration.
- Contribute to design reviews, code reviews, service documentation, production readiness, and a culture of high-quality engineering.
What you’ll bring
- 5+ years of software engineering experience, including building and operating production services, APIs, distributed systems, or transaction-processing applications.
- Experience building and operating cloud-based systems on AWS, Google Cloud Platform, or comparable public cloud environments, with strong fundamentals in deployment, monitoring, reliability, and secure service design.
- Practical interest in AI agents and agentic workflows, including how agents call APIs, pass structured data, operate within delegated permissions, and require validation before triggering real-world actions.
- Strong software engineering fundamentals across API design, testing, CI/CD, observability, secure coding, resilience, maintainability, and production support.
- Ability to collaborate across product, architecture, security, fraud, checkout, tokenization, gateway, and platform teams to deliver cross-system capabilities in a fast-moving, emerging product area.
It’s a bonus if you have
- Experience in payments, fintech, commerce, gateways, card-not-present processing, checkout, tokenization, 3DS/SCA, fraud/risk, disputes, merchant reporting, or other high-trust transaction systems.
- Experience building or integrating with AI-powered applications, agent frameworks, LLM tool-calling patterns, MCP-style integrations, A2A-style workflows, structured automation systems, or safe AI execution patterns such as validation, policy checks, audit logs, fallback paths, and protection against prompt injection or tool misuse.
- Hands-on experience with Node.js, TypeScript, SDKs, developer tooling, sandbox environments, sample apps, merchant-facing APIs, GitHub projects, open-source tools, standards discussions, AI engineering communities, or technical forums.

Senior Software Developer Jobs in Georgia: Frequently Asked Questions
How do you become a senior software developer in Georgia?
Senior software developer roles in Georgia require a bachelor's degree in computer science or a closely related field, though many employers also accept candidates with equivalent experience or a coding bootcamp background combined with a strong portfolio. No state-issued license is required. Most Georgia employers promote engineers to senior level after several years of demonstrated technical leadership, architecture contributions, and mentorship of junior team members within production software environments.
How much do senior software developers make in Georgia?
Senior software developers in Georgia earn a median of about $131,010 a year, based on May 2025 Bureau of Labor Statistics wage data, ranging from around $80,110 for the lowest 10% to over $176,000 for the top 10%. Pay rises with experience, specialty, and employer.
Which companies hire senior software developers in Georgia?
Employers hiring senior software developers in Georgia right now include Capgemini, Betfair Interactive U.S., and The Home Depot, based on current listings on Migrate Mate as of November 2026. Georgia's fintech corridor, anchored in Atlanta and Alpharetta, means a significant share of these openings come from payments, banking technology, and enterprise software companies with large permanent engineering teams in the state.
Which Georgia cities have the most senior software developer jobs?
Atlanta, Alpharetta, and Duluth account for the most senior software developer openings in Georgia. Atlanta dominates because it hosts the headquarters and major engineering hubs of Georgia's largest fintech, media, and logistics companies, while Alpharetta's technology park concentration and Savannah's growing logistics-tech sector generate consistent demand outside the immediate metro core.
Are there remote senior software developer jobs in Georgia?
Yes, and more than most fields. About 70% of senior software developer openings tied to Georgia are remote or hybrid as of November 2026, reflecting how naturally this role suits distributed work. Backend, cloud infrastructure, and platform engineering positions tend to offer the most fully remote arrangements, while roles requiring close collaboration with hardware teams or on-site data centers are more likely to require regular in-person presence.
How can I get hired as a senior software developer in Georgia with little or no experience?
The most realistic path is securing an associate or junior software engineer role first, then growing toward senior responsibility through consistent technical contributions and mentorship exposure. Large Georgia employers like NCR Voyix, Fiserv, and Cox Enterprises run new-graduate programs and rotational engineering tracks that accept candidates with strong portfolios even without years of experience. Building proficiency in cloud platforms and contributing to open-source projects strengthens a Georgia application considerably for those transitioning from adjacent roles like QA engineer or systems analyst.
