Payment infrastructure and orchestration platform for MENA commerce and governments
PayTabs operates a payments orchestration platform serving merchants, enterprises, and governments across the MENA region. The stack is heavily Java/Spring with multi-cloud infrastructure (AWS, Azure, GCP), and the company is actively migrating away from PHP—a pattern consistent with modernizing a decade-old codebase. Current hiring focus on legal and compliance tooling alongside engineering suggests parallel investment in operational infrastructure to match scale.
PayTabs is a payments infrastructure provider founded in 2014 and headquartered in Riyadh. The company processes multi-currency transactions and sells to merchants, large enterprises, and government bodies across the MENA region through a suite of products including payment gateways, digital invoicing, QR code payments, point-of-sale terminals (including PT Touch, a soft POS solution), and a unified payments orchestration platform launched in 2022. The engineering organization is primarily Java-based (Spring Boot, Spring Cloud) running on Kubernetes across three public clouds. Active development includes contract management automation and legal/compliance dashboard systems, indicating scaling operational demands.
