Product Engineer (Payments)

Runable · Full-time · In person, Bangalore

What we're building

Runable helps people build, grow, and run their businesses with AI agents. The work spans products customers use, agents that act across tools, our own GPU inference, and payment integrations with financial partners around the world.

We use our own product to build and test interactive artifacts and designs. Our agents monitor security around the clock, investigate and fix production issues, and detect abuse and enforce bans. We experiment with models and how they behave. This is already part of how we work.

We question the starting assumptions. When the existing approach to remote desktops was not good enough, we built Tilt in Rust to rethink the noVNC stack and protocol. We want people who ask what could work better, then build it and prove it.

The role

Build payment experiences people can trust and agents can use responsibly. You will own the whole path: what a customer needs, the interface, the backend, partner integrations, failure recovery, and what happens after launch. We are building toward global payment and banking capabilities through financial partners; Runable is the software that connects people and their agents to those services.

What you'll own

• Talk to customers and turn real payment problems into simple flows across web, mobile, and the agent experience.
• Build partner integrations, payment state machines, webhooks, reconciliation, and clear transaction histories. Make retries, duplicate events, and partial failures safe.
• Design permissions, limits, and confirmations for agent-initiated payments so the person stays in control.
• Make failed or pending payments understandable, traceable, and recoverable with the right partner handoff.
• Ship the full product, watch how people use it, and improve successful activation, payment completion, retention, and the revenue the product earns.

What you'll bring

• Products you have shipped and operated, with clear examples of the customer outcome you owned.
• Strong engineering foundations across interfaces, APIs, data modeling, and distributed systems. TypeScript and Postgres are useful here.
• Care with money: you think about idempotency, auditability, authorization, and what happens when two systems disagree.
• Product taste and the willingness to sit with a customer until you understand where the experience fails.
• Payment or financial infrastructure experience helps. Evidence that you can learn deeply and build dependable systems matters more than a specific previous title.

How we work

• Everyone at Runable writes code and ships, including design and GTM. Use agents to extend what you can build, and verify the work yourself.
• Own the outcome, from understanding the customer to shipping, operating, and measuring the result. Your job extends beyond the ticket or your title.
• Everyone can talk to customers. Go directly to the people using what you build, help them, and bring what you learn back into the product.
• AI agents are part of the team. Use them to research, build, review, test, and operate; your judgment owns the result. Build the automation that makes the next piece of work easier.
• Trust compounds. We trust people shipping code to merge to main when checks and evidence support it, and to ask for review when judgment or risk calls for another pair of eyes. Automated checks and approvals help us move; they do not transfer responsibility.
• Own the metrics and revenue impact of your work. Define the customer and business result, measure what changed after shipping, and keep improving it. Useful outcomes, sustainable revenue, and systems we can afford to run belong together.
• We work six days a week, in person in Bangalore. You have autonomy over how you organize and do the work. We care about outcomes and dependable collaboration, without managing every small decision.

What matters to us

Show us what you have built, how you think, and how ambitious you are. Degrees, employer names, and years of experience can be signals; none is a substitute for the work. We value curiosity, clear communication, good judgment, and the drive to take an unfamiliar problem all the way to a useful result.

Hiring process

1. A 15-minute introduction with Saksham, co-founder.
2. A work-day trial in our Bangalore office on a real problem with the team, so both sides can see what working together is like.
