About the position
Join a high-performing technology environment where modern engineering practices, cloud innovation, and impactful delivery come together in a highly collaborative team.
Role Overview
If you enjoy proper backend engineering, this is the kind of role where you'll probably [Email Address Removed] of Python, Django, and FastAPI, working on APIs, integrations, services, and fixing the kinds of problems that actually make engineering interesting. The team cares about writing clean code, building things properly, and making sensible technical decisions instead of overengineering everything for the sake of it.
You'll be around people who like solving problems, talking through ideas, improving how things work, and getting solid code into production without endless red tape. There's a mix of backend work, cloud stuff, architecture input, performance tuning, debugging weird issues, and continuously improving the platform as things scale.
The Stack
- Building and improving backend services, APIs, and integrations
- Working across Python, Django, FastAPI, and modern application frameworks
- Contributing to architecture discussions and technical decisions
- Improving application performance, reliability, and maintainability
- Working with cloud-based environments, microservices, and CI/CD pipelines
- Helping improve deployments, monitoring, and overall platform stability
- Collaborating with other engineers on clean code, standards, and best practices
- Mentoring junior developers and contributing to a strong engineering culture
- Getting involved in proof of concepts, new ideas, and improving how things are done
You'll Fit In If...
- You've got a relevant IT qualification (Degree or Diploma) or equivalent hands-on experience that's given you a solid engineering foundation
- You've spent 10+ years building software in object-oriented environments
- You've got 8+ years of solid Python experience
- You've worked properly with Django and FastAPI in production environments
- APIs, integrations, and backend services are familiar territory
- You understand SQL properly and know your way around database optimisation
- Git, CI/CD, and modern development workflows are part of your normal process
- You've worked with cloud platforms, microservices, or containerised environments
- You care about writing clean, maintainable code and enjoy solving real engineering problems
- You're happy collaborating with other engineers, sharing ideas, and helping less experienced devs grow
Experience in financial services or regulated enterprise environments would be useful, but it's not the main thing they care about.
