We are a technology-driven company with around 400 engineers building our in-house banking platform, and we encourage collaboration across disciplines, open source contribution, and learning through our engineering blog. This role can be based in our London office or remotely anywhere in the UK, with flexible working, no mandated office attendance, support for UK relocation and visa sponsorship, and a learning budget of £1,000 per year. We also offer performance-linked incentive awards and a broad benefits package, and we are committed to building an inclusive, diverse workplace where everyone can do their best work.
