Technical Support Specialist

What’s holding global brands back in South Africa isn’t demand. It’s friction. We’re changing that. If you're excited by complex challenges, care about doing things properly, and thrive in a fast-moving environment, this is a rare opportunity to do your best work.

The problem Precium is solving:

Global businesses want to grow across the continent but broken payment experiences, regulatory minefields, and infrastructure gaps get in the way.

Precium helps global brands reduce payment failures, navigate local regulations, and get paid, reliably and at scale.

We build payment infrastructure that reduces friction, increases revenue, and ensures compliance without compromising performance.

From reconciliation to payouts, we handle the complexity so our clients can operate with confidence.

Our clients include South Africa’s biggest enterprises and some of the world’s most recognisable consumer brands. We're backed by global investors like QED Investors, Partech, and SpeedInvest, and we’re building for scale, for depth, and for the long term.

We’re a team of builders who care about craft, rigour, and impact. We value the effort it takes to do hard things well and we’re excited by the opportunity to shape how the world does business in South Africa.

We give global brands the infrastructure, insight, and control they need to grow in South Africa.

The role

We're seeking a Technical Support Specialist to join our team and play a central role in providing exceptional support to our merchants after they go live on our platform. In this role, you will be responsible for resolving complex technical issues related to our payment platform, API integration, transaction flows, and platform monitoring. You will report to the Payment Operations Manager.

If you thrive in a fast-paced environment and excel at technical troubleshooting with a customer-focused approach, we want to hear from you.

Why this role matters:

As a Technical Support Specialist, you will be crucial in ensuring seamless merchant experiences and maintaining customer trust. Your work will directly impact merchant satisfaction and the smooth operation of our platform.

Why Precium

• Build from first principles whether you're designing a system, solving a client problem, or rewriting a process.
• Join a team that values precision, curiosity, and discipline, and backs it up with high trust and high standards.
• Competitive salary, ESOP, and benefits.

Who you are

You’re a sharp thinker and an even sharper doer. You care about the details, ask good questions, and enjoy learning as you go. You’re motivated by challenges, not discouraged by them. You like solving hard problems with other smart people. You don’t need hand-holding, but you value open feedback and being part of a strong, honest team.

The ideal candidate will possess:

• Technical Troubleshooting – Ability to diagnose and resolve complex technical issues efficiently, especially related to APIs, integration, and transactions.
• API Knowledge – Hands-on experience working with and troubleshooting RESTful APIs, using tools like Postman.
