Senior Software Engineer - Kotlin

We are looking for driven, talented Java/Kotlin Software Engineers to help us build cutting edge SaaS-based solutions to help our client organisations fight financial crime.

What you will be doing

You will work in the Fraud Squad within the Risk Apps Tribe. The team is responsible for delivering an end-to-end fraud detection solution as part of the platform used by our clients.

As a Senior Software Engineer, you will 

• Write great code. We understand code is read more than it’s written, and better off tested. Maintainability is a must.

• Shape what we build. Our platform is constantly evolving to attain greater scale efficiently. And our product is constantly evolving to provide the most relevant fincrime insights.

• Own delivery. We’re obsessed with shipping value; you’ll own work beyond just a pull request.

• Grow together. You’ll review other’s work and happily seek feedback on yours to ensure we build a better codebase and sharpen each other's skills. We believe in developing our people so you will play an important part in mentoring juniors in the team.

• Champion engineering values. You’ll care about bugs, scalability and uptime.

• Embody a collaborative Spirit. You’ll be working closely with Product Owners, Engineers and Data Scientists to design and implement your solutions. We work as a team and your input will be key in many architectural decisions (some that you would own) and in driving consensus.

Our Tech Stack

• Our technology stack is designed to run on public cloud architectures, notably AWS and GCP. 

• Development is organised around Java, Kotlin and Python for our backend languages and TypeScript/ES6+React for our frontend stack. 

• We make substantial use of relational database technologies, notably Postgres and also use noSQL technologies such as Cassandra

• We also use an event-sourced model powered by Kafka for our communication bus and gRPC for our intra-service communication protocol. 

• We use modern observability solutions from Datadog and deploy our code using ArgoCD

We have a strong emphasis on engineering excellence and strive to ship the best possible code and the best possible solutions to our customers.

About you

As a Senior Software Engineer, you are expected to have

• At least 6 years experience writing large scale production-grade applications

• Worked in an agile environment and experience in pair programming.

• Experience working with cloud-based (AWS/Azure/GCP) or containerised infrastructure (Kubernetes/Docker/Jenkins).

• (Desirable) Experience handling big data and building data processing pipelines (Spark).
