Get to know us

Do you want to help us shape what the future of work will look like and how it will best embrace our life's aspirations? If this sounds like a journey you want to embark on, we may have the right role for you! PayFit is an intuitive software as a service payroll and HRIS solution designed specifically for SMBs. Since 2015, we have set ourselves a mission to simplify payroll for SMBs and enable employers and employees to grow together. We are a European company operating from 3 main countries (France, Spain, and the UK) where we are supporting over 20,000 clients.

Creating a fulfilling work environment and culture is also a core mission at PayFit, and our day-to-day work philosophy is reflected in our four values:

Care: We genuinely care for others whoever they are, whatever they think.

Excellence: We aim to improve and achieve better results every day.

Humility: Staying humble and exchanging transparent feedback helps us to grow and improve.

Passion: We are the architects of PayFit's success.

A key part of our culture, and essential for our success, is also improving the diversity of our teams and building an inclusive culture where you can be yourself at work.

This is why our recruitment focuses on the skills you demonstrate, and not only on your academic background or previous professional experiences. At PayFit we understand that you can gain applicable skills through a variety of life experiences and we are interested in knowing them, too.

Position Overview

Join our Product team as a Product Builder. You will be responsible for evolving our product for France, driving both the product vision and its technical implementation through our in-house low-code platform, JetLang.

What makes this role unique: you don't just specify, you build. You don't delegate, you deliver. This end-to-end ownership allows you to have a direct and fast impact on thousands of users. To know more about low-code, you can check up an article in French here.

The challenge? Master a complex and demanding business domain : French payroll. It's this complexity that makes the role exciting and will enable you to become a recognized expert in a business-critical field. If you're a problem-solver with a passion for product development, this is your chance to make a real difference.

You have +2 years of experience in product management or project management, with demonstrable results
You have experience in development or technical configuration (low-code, no-code, scripting, or programming languages)
