Ambitious? So are we.

Working at Adyen

Everything we do is engineered for ambition

When we launched in 2006, our ambition was simple: Help businesses grow. We started with payments, taking an engineering-first approach to solving some of the most complex challenges out there. Today, we are the financial technology platform of choice for the world’s leading brands. We did this by working with the best minds, putting winning before ego, and having fun along the way.

To realize our long-term ambitions, we’re looking for creative problem solvers, big-picture thinkers and colleagues we can count on.

We include different people to sharpen our ideas

We create our own path and won’t be slowed down by “stewards”
