  • Strong hands-on experience with React (or similar) and back-end frameworks such as
  • Solid understanding of API design/orchestration and database technologies (PostgreSQL essential).
  • Experience with AWS and Kubernetes for cloud-native delivery.
  • Familiarity with Infrastructure as Code, Continuous Delivery, and Continuous Integration.
  • Strong analytical and problem-solving skills, with a proactive mindset.
  • Collaborative, organised, and able to thrive in a fast-paced, Agile delivery environment.

Why Join?

  • High-growth fintech consultancy working with tier-one banks and disruptors.
  • Small, dynamic team where contributions directly shape outcomes.
  • Exposure to senior technology leaders and major digitisation programmes.
  • Remote-first with collaborative workshops for key milestones.
