About PayPay

2018年にサービスを開始してからわずか2年4か月でユーザー数3600万人を突破したフィンテック企業であるPayPayは現在35か国以上の国から集まった多様なメンバーで構成されています。従業員は1000名をすでに超えていますが、まだまだ会社は成長段階であり「未完成」です。「PayPay」の提供に当たっては、インド最大の決済サービス事業者であるPaytm社と連携し、同社の顧客本位のテクノロジーを活用して日本におけるスマホ決済を構築しサービスを拡大していきます。

わたしたちの最大のライバルは“現金”です。この困難な課題に前向きに取り組み、他社に真似できない圧倒的なスピードでプロダクトを磨き上げ、日本のキャッシュレス決済、またそれを使用した金融ライフプラットフォームとしての普及を一気に推進することにプロフェッショナルとして情熱を持って取り組み、自ら課題発見し、周囲と協力して新しい価値創出を共に推進する仲間を募集します。

また、働き方に関してもWFA（Working From Anywhere)制度など、新しい人事制度を採り入れてます。当社は基本的にフルリモートでの勤務となる為、勤務場所や現在の居住地は問いません。地方に暮らしながらも国際都市水準の給料・福利厚生を得ながら、世界レベルの仲間と仕事をする。そんな働き方もPayPayでは実現できます。

【言語要件】日本語 / 英語どちらかが流暢（ビジネスレベル以上）であれば応募いただけます！

COVID-19期間中のPayPayの方針は以下の通りです。

PayPayはパンデミック期間中、従業員の安全を確保するためにリモートワークへの移行を進めており、パンデミックが治まった後もこれを継続していきます。
日本への移住を希望する方の応募は受け付けていますが、渡航規制の関係で移住の時期を明確にすることが難しい状況です。内定が出た場合は、在留資格認定証明書の申請を行いますので、国境が開通すればビザの取得が容易になりますし、遠隔地からの契約など、特別な配慮をすることも可能です。
COVID-19が落ち着き、ビザ発給の準備が整うまでは、海外からリモートで仕事を始めることができます。

Japanese Language Policy
At PayPay, there is a mixture of Japanese and English spoken. Around 80% of their product team’s discussions happen in English, and they have technical interpreters and translators on staff to facilitate any translation necessary. Some members can speak both English and Japanese, but some can only speak either English or Japanese.

PayPay doesn’t have an official shared language, but in practice English tends to be the primary language used for internal communications and technical discussions like code reviews.

Instead of requiring that everyone be able to speak a specific language, PayPay expects an ability to communicate with mutual respect and a drive to ensure that you’re understood. The product team values proactive communication highly.
Visa Sponsorship
PayPay sponsors visas for applicants from overseas.
Paid Leave
- Days Off: Saturdays and Sundays. National holidays. Year-end holidays from December 29th to January 4th.
