About the role

AvidXchange is seeking a Principal Engineer for Payments to shape technical direction and hands-on architecture for our payments platform. The role blends coding, system design, and cross-functional leadership to deliver scalable, secure solutions that process millions of B2B payments. You will work with AI-based SDLC, coach engineers, and partner with product and operations to align technical outcomes with business goals on this hybrid, Charlotte-based team.

Before you apply

Applying takes about a minute. These four things decide how fast it moves after that.

Your profile is current

It's what we read first. Occupations, seniority and locations matter more than a long history.

Two examples you can talk through

Not a portfolio — just two pieces of work where you can explain the decisions and what you'd change.

A number in mind

What you're on now and what would make you move. We negotiate better when we know both.

Your notice period

Employers plan around it, and it's the question that stalls offers most often.

Once you apply, someone reads it and calls you before anything reaches the employer — usually within two working days.
