This event will be held in Japanese, as business-level Japanese is required for related positions.

On March 19, 2024, TechPlay will host an online event titled “The Realities of Business System Development and Improvement to Support Rapidly Growing Large-Scale Services – The Real Joys and Career Stories of PayPay Corporate Engineers ~PayPay Growth Tech vol.7” will be held, hosted by TechPlay.

In the five years since its launch, PayPay has surpassed 62 million registered users (as of February 2024) and continues to grow rapidly, aiming to become the overwhelming No. 1 leading company for cashless payments in Japan.

In order to achieve such rapid growth, in addition to the growth of the service itself, it is essential to provide an environment where employees can maximize their performance and focus on their work productively.

In this event, a corporate engineer from the “System Development Department,” which supports the rapidly growing large-scale service through the development and streamlining of various business systems directly related to business drive and growth, will introduce specific examples of their efforts and discuss their past and future careers.

【Case Studies of Efforts】
We will introduce our know-how to consider the optimal system from multiple angles based on the priority and urgency of development while taking a bird’s eye view of the entire Business Development.

  • How do you determine development priorities in the midst of a wide variety of projects, both large and small?
  • How do you consider, coordinate, and select the most appropriate development method to solve problems?
  • How do you uncover potential issues and link them to improvements?

【Past and Future Careers】
The speakers will talk about their real careers based on their actual experiences.

  • What kind of experience and sense of growth do you get from developing systems that support large-scale and fast-growing services?
  • How did you make the most of your experience at your previous job, where client work was the main focus?
  • What kind of challenges do you want to take on as an engineer in the future, and what kind of challenges can you take on with PayPay?

Throughout the event, we have prepared content that will give you a taste of the best of corporate engineering and PayPay’s culture.

  • You are struggling to develop and improve business systems that do not slow down the speed of business and want to have opportunities to connect and share knowledge with other engineers who have the same experiences and concerns.
