About the role
As a Manager, Software Development Engineer in the Mastercard Data & Services Technologies team, you will play a valuable role within a successful and rapidly growing business unit, working closely with experienced and motivated engineers to solve challenging problems.
As a member of the Mastercard D&S Business Intelligence team, you will bring your technical knowledge and full stack development experience to help build, deploy, and scale real-time interactive applications for thousands of clients across the globe that allow users to compare the performance of their portfolio against benchmarks.

Our next-generation platform blends industry-leading analytics, advanced software architecture, and the latest data processing technologies.
Engineers work in small, flexible teams. Every team member contributes to feature design, building, and testing. The range of work you encounter varies from front-end web development to writing server-side calculation code to database work. There are no rigid organizational structures at Mastercard; each team uses processes that work the best for that team's members and projects.
