• Youll work with Kotlin, Kafka, Kubernetes, Docker, AWS Aurora Postgres, and other modern technologies. If you havent worked with all of these, we value skilled engineers with a willingness to learn.

• A product-focused engineering mindset

• Experience building distributed systems at scale

• Test-driven development practices

• Comfort operating in uncertainty and rapid change

• Collaborative problem-solving skills

Our engineering culture:

• Customer impact over unnecessary complexity

• Team success over individual heroics

• Operational ownership, not just feature delivery

• Continuous improvement through honest feedback

Added bonus:

• Experience with fintech or banking is a plus, but we value problem-solvers from all backgrounds

We started our journey back in 2005, building the first ever peer-to-peer lending company. Fast forward to 2020 and we launched Zopa Bank. A bank that listens to what our customers don't like about finance and does the opposite. We're redefining what it feels like to work in finance. Our vision for a new era of banking puts people front and centre - we've built a business that empowers everyone to aim high, every day, to move finance forward. We're incredibly proud of our achievements and none of it would be possible without the amazing team here. It's not just industry awards we're winning, we've also been named in the top three UK's Most Loved Workplaces. Our Software Engineers dont just write code, they solve real financial problems for millions of customers. Youll work on distributed systems processing thousands of transactions daily, build resilient services that handle peoples money, and create experiences that make traditionally complex financial products feel simple.
