Who we are

idataraya is a Malaysian software company. We design, build and then operate the systems our clients run their organisations on, across payments, healthcare, retail, property and the public sector.

The engineers who design and build a system are the ones who keep it running afterwards. That is the shape of the whole company, and it is why the roles here look the way they do.

The team

Payments and acceptance. QR and card rails, terminals, settlement files and reconciliation.

About the role

You write the software that runs on payment terminals and soundboxes, including the parts that have to work when the network does not. The hardware is constrained and the device is in someone's shop.

What you will do

  • Build and maintain terminal applications and their update path.
  • Work within the device SDK, its security model and its limits.
  • Design offline capture and the sync that follows.
  • Support devices in the field, with the diagnostics to do it remotely.

What you will bring

  • Embedded, Android or payment terminal development experience.
  • Comfort with constrained memory, storage and connectivity.
  • Care about update and rollback, because a bricked terminal is a site visit.
  • Willingness to go to site when it comes to that.

What we offer

  • Ownership of real systems from the first architecture session through to live operation, rather than a slice of someone else's design.
  • Direct contact with the people using what you build, with no account layer in between.
  • Work delivered in two to four week increments, demonstrated and accepted before the next one starts.
  • More than twenty production engines underneath the client systems, so the same problem is rarely solved twice.

We consider every applicant on what they have built and how they work. Tell us about your experience in your own words, and we will come back to you either way.
