Job Description:

Position Summary
Marqeta is the originator and market leader of Modern Card Issuing. A key part of what differentiates Modern Card Issuing from Legacy Issuing is our best in class customer experience powered by Marqeta Dashboard, our powerful web-based app. Legacy card issuing runs on tech built decades ago on mainframes -- clunky, slow and very manual, oftentimes with no associated UI. With Marqeta Dashboard, our customers and partners log in every day to run their payments infrastructure including issuing virtual, physical and tokenized cards, managing customer card transactions, disputes, card tokens, settlement, and viewing & visualizing reports. All of this in a unified and modern web application.
We have built the foundation of this differentiated customer experience in Marqeta Dashboard and now we are focusing on meeting new scale demands, resiliency and significantly expanding the product capabilities of the dashboard to support more advanced use cases like risk decision management, new payments workflows and embeddable apps.
Beyond new initiatives, we work hard to ensure that Marqeta Dashboard presents an elegant, intuitive UI so that our customers can get the most out of our extremely flexible product suite. Marqeta Dashboard gives our customers control and insight into their card program with a customer experience that no one else can match - and our customers thank us every day for it.
