Why Checkout.com?
Alvina was drawn to Checkout.com’s culture of ownership and momentum. Where people are encouraged to take initiative, speak up, and push forward.
“What stood out to me from the start was the level of trust, you’re empowered to explore ideas, make decisions, and drive impact.”
More than that, she felt seen. “We’re not defined by our job titles here. We’re multi-dimensional people, and that’s celebrated.”
A culture of growth
Alvina doesn’t believe growth should happen in isolation. That’s why she’s passionate about creating a culture that uplifts and empowers others - especially women in tech.
She lives the #BeBetterEveryDay operating principle by lifting others as she climbs. It’s about helping people unlock their potential. When one person grows, the team grows. And that’s when things really start to move.
For Alvina, the culture at Checkout.com makes this possible.
“Our principles like #TalkStraight, #OneTeam, and #FundamentallyPositive don’t just shape how we work - they shape how we treat each other. There’s an openness and respect here that’s rare and it keeps me motivated.”
Delivering impact
Recently, Alvina worked on a project to simplify Checkout.com’s log management system. The result? Over £20,000 saved in just three months, with even more savings on the way.
“It’s been exciting to drive real change and see such clear, measurable results. That’s what the #RunLean operating principle looks like in action - doing more with less, and doing it well.”
#AthleteMindset
For Alvina, the #AthleteMindset isn’t aspirational, it’s personal.
Whether she’s coding, collaborating, or crushing it on the volleyball court, she brings the same energy: focus, consistency, and a hunger to improve.
“Every project has a deadline. Every game has a finish. But growth? That never stops. I’m always learning, always pushing. That’s how I perform at my best.”
It’s a mindset that’s deeply embedded in Checkout.com’s culture and one she sees reflected in her team every day.
