• Add to shortlist

Job Title: Platform / Software Engineer (Senior / Staff)

Salary: £80-120k (no bonus, but generous equity)

Location: fully remote

Industry: FinTech

About the company

This new breed of FinTech is completely revolutionising the corporate and investment banking space with their innovative, mission critical systems for automating complex loan management/corporate lending processes, addressing inefficiencies in outdated (sometimes 30-40 years old) banking systems

This is a completely untapped area, in which they are the 1st successful mover with no existing competition in place - think Monzo but for corporate banking (where there is a lot more money flowing than in retail banking)

With a lean, foundational team of 20, they've managed to successfully deliver and deploy the first iteration of their product into production and are already managing £700m of assets from Tier 1 banking clients.

They're just getting started and will expand very significantly over the next year. For now, we're hiring for 10-12 roles and amongst those 1-2 Platform/Software Engineers.

Must have requirements:

• Strong programming background in Python, Rust, Go, and/or TypeScript (proficiency in multiple languages is highly desirable)
• Extensive cloud experience - AWS preferred (multi-cloud experience is a bonus)
• Proficiency in Kubernetes and Terraform (experience with Terragrunt is desirable)
• Well-rounded SRE/Platform Engineering experience, including cyber security, CI/CD and observability
• Self-starter/proactive approach, with a proven track record of designing and deploying innovative solutions to solve complex problems

Bonus points for experience with:

• messaging systems like Kafka
• distributed systems
• working with complex financial applications/banking products - quant/trading background would be beneficial
