Random delays, confusing rules, extra apps and accounts make it harder than it should be to pay and get paid.\nThe European Payments Initiative is changing that with Wero, a proudly European digital wallet to make payments easier, clearer and more secure. Online, in store, at home and across borders, with your money and data protected under European laws and regulations.\nWero is live in Belgium, France and Germany and launching very soon in Luxembourg and the Netherlands. Backed by 16 major banks and the two largest European acquirers, we’re building a brand new, proudly European payment system. Why not join us?\nWhat's in it for you\nPlay a key role in onboarding and certifying banks, acquirers, and payment service providers across Europe onto the Wero network. Working at the crossroads of API testing, end-to-end certification, and partner engagement, you will collaborate closely with external stakeholders to ensure seamless integrations. This is a unique opportunity to join a remote-first, high-impact environment where you directly contribute to the quality, interoperability, and reliability of Europe's next-generation payments infrastructure.\nAbout the team\nYou’ll join the Member Quality Assurance team within Operations Services Delivery. The team is responsible for coordinating, scoping and validating testing activities for EPI member institutions, helping banks, acquirers and PSPs successfully integrate with Wero.\nYou’ll work closely with external member banks, acquirers, PSPs and test tooling partners, as well as internal Product, Payment Experience, Infrastructure and Operations teams.
