Principal Software Engineer, Secure Payments

Overview

From our nation’s earliest days, ABCorp has been a trusted force in security and innovation. In 1795, the federally chartered Bank of the United States entrusted American Bank Note Company with the mission of producing counterfeit-resistant currency for the young Republic. That legacy established ABCorp as a pioneer in secure printing and shaped our evolution into a global leader in secure manufacturing.

What began with protecting America’s financial foundation now drives cutting-edge solutions that safeguard organizations worldwide.

Today, ABCorp operates at the intersection of authentication, payments, and secure access, embracing next-generation (including additive 3D) manufacturing to meet the demands of a digitally driven world. With more than 230 years of expertise, no one understands secure manufacturing and authentication better — or has done it longer. We maintain global reach and compliance across eight locations worldwide and are trusted by fintechs, financial institutions, healthcare companies, governments, and brands in more than 120 countries.

We deliver end-to-end innovation through high-security, state-of-the-art facilities that incubate advancements in payments, secure access, and additive manufacturing.

At ABCorp, our legacy and decades of achievement are powered by an exceptional team that embodies a true startup mindset.

The Product & Engineering organization partners closely with Product Management, Sales, Operations, Customer Success, Security, and our customers to design and deliver the platforms that power our secure financial and card issuance solutions. Our teams build and operate cloud-native SaaS systems and secure production technologies that enable global institutions to issue, manage, and authenticate payment credentials at scale.

Working at the intersection of secure manufacturing, financial technology, and enterprise software, the team translates complex regulatory, operational, and customer requirements into scalable, resilient, and compliant systems. From architecture and platform design to deployment and global production integration, Product & Engineering drives both product innovation and operational excellence across our business.

Our work directly shapes customer experience, system reliability, and the long-term growth of ABCorp’s secure payments platforms worldwide.
