## Description

We're seeking a Full Stack Engineer with a strong backend focus to help build and modernise the Global Data Network (GDN), a high-impact platform enabling the secure sharing and analysis of fraud intelligence across systems.

This is a hands-on engineering role where you'll work across backend services, data platforms, cloud infrastructure, and UI, contributing to the evolution of a cloud-native, API-driven architecture.

You'll play a critical role in transforming legacy data-sharing approaches into a scalable, real-time, graph-powered platform that enhances fraud detection and intelligence capabilities.

What You'll Be Doing

 * Design, build, and evolve the Global Data Network platform
 * Lead the transition from database/CSV-based data sharing to a modern, cloud-native, API-driven architecture
 * Develop backend services to support real-time fraud data ingestion, processing, and distribution
 * Design and implement graph-based data models to uncover relationships between fraud-related entities
 * Build and optimise scalable solutions on Azure, contributing to architecture and platform design decisions
 * Develop APIs enabling real-time and near real-time data exchange across systems
 * Contribute to lightweight UI components for visualising graph relationships and entity connections
 * Collaborate closely with engineering, architecture, and product teams to deliver high-performance solutions
