This is an excellent backend engineer opportunity, where you can join a well-established and forward-thinking engineering team within the banking sector. In this role, your expertise will be instrumental in designing, developing, and maintaining robust software applications—ranging from implementing new features and resolving complex bugs to participating in peer code reviews that uphold high standards of quality and reliability.
The team is grounded in modern engineering principles, with a strong focus on clean architecture, continuous delivery, and scalable, maintainable design. You’ll work closely with cross-functional teams to deliver high-impact, business-critical projects, with the autonomy to focus on deep technical problems and shape systems that deliver real value – giving you real ownership and the opportunity to grow as a technical leader.
You’ll play a hands-on role across the full software development lifecycle: from planning and technical scoping to implementation, deployment, and continuous improvement.

This hybrid role offers the flexibility of remote work combined with two in-office days per week—balancing focused development time with in-person collaboration. It’s a chance to deepen your technical expertise, influence key outcomes, and be part of a team that values both innovation and reliability in equal measure.
