Want to build software that matters, own what you deliver, and work on real production challenges?

We're partnering with a growing international fintech business looking for an experienced Full Stack Software Engineer to join its engineering team.

This is an opportunity to work on business-critical technology, solve challenging engineering problems, and take genuine ownership of the systems you build.

We're looking for someone who enjoys more than just writing code. Someone who understands how software performs in production, takes responsibility for technical decisions, and wants to make a meaningful impact.

The Opportunity
You'll join a collaborative engineering team developing and maintaining scalable, cloud-based applications.

The role is backend-focused (approximately 70% backend / 30% frontend), giving you the opportunity to work across the stack while solving interesting backend engineering challenges.

You'll have the autonomy to influence technical decisions, contribute to architecture, and take ownership of features throughout their lifecycle.

What You'll Be Doing
  • Design, develop, and maintain scalable backend services and APIs.
  • Build modern frontend applications using React and TypeScript.
  • Take ownership of features from design and development through deployment and production.
  • Improve the performance, reliability, and scalability of existing systems.
  • Work with cloud infrastructure, CI/CD pipelines, and automated testing.
  • Troubleshoot production issues and implement long-term engineering improvements.
  • Collaborate with product and engineering teams to deliver high-quality solutions.
What We're Looking For
  • Previous software engineering experience within a fintech company.
  • Strong hands-on experience developing and maintaining production applications.
  • Solid backend engineering skills, ideally with Node.js and TypeScript.
  • Experience with modern frontend technologies, preferably React.
  • Practical experience working with AWS, GCP or Azure.
  • Good understanding of APIs, software architecture, testing and deployment practices.
  • The ability to independently solve technical problems and take ownership of engineering deliverables.
We're particularly interested in engineers who have owned systems beyond development, including deployment, performance, reliability, and ongoing production support.

Experience with alternative backend technologies such as Java, Go or Python is also valuable. Strong engineering fundamentals and production experience matter more than matching every technology perfectly.

Bonus Points
  • Infrastructure as Code, Terraform or Kubernetes.
  • Experience with distributed systems or microservices.
  • Experience improving application performance or scalability.
  • Previous experience within a growing product-led technology business.
Why This Opportunity?

Real Engineering Ownership
Own meaningful technical challenges, influence engineering decisions and see the impact of your work.

Interesting Technical Problems
Build and improve production systems where performance, reliability and scalability are genuinely important.

Modern Technology
Work with TypeScript, Node.js, React and cloud-native infrastructure in a modern engineering environment.

Autonomy & Impact
Join a collaborative team where engineers are trusted to solve problems, contribute ideas and take responsibility for their work.

Room to Grow
Develop your technical expertise, broaden your ownership and grow alongside an ambitious fintech business.
