Job Specifications

Python Developer – London | Hybrid - £80,000 - £95,000

My client are a fast-growth financial services provider, allowing businesses to better leverage their assets and facilitate business investment and borrowing.

Having operated in this space for 10-years, they boast a happy medium of established product and ambitious growth plans – the type of business everyone needs in today’s turbulent markets.
Thanks to growth and continued investment into the team, the engineering team is now looking to grow from 10 upwards, to help with this, they’re looking for a senior engineer to step onboard, help with their knowledge share, and bring in some great engineering practies.

Day to day:
Coding predominantly in Python3, Flask, MyPy to ensure well designed, scalable backend systems.
The backend is relatively monolithic, and whilst they’re not yet looking into microservices architecture, they are going to be splitting some core components into more easily manageable modules – so experience of architecture in these areas would be essential.
Experience of refactoring systems or code
Experience of 3rd party integrations, for clients looking to use their services they might have specific / niche demands the engineer will need to overcome to help them onboard
Experience of front end – whilst this is a backend role, it does, naturally, interact with a front end made of JS, TS and React. It’s imperative that the engineer have some good experience of working in a Fullstack team where they’ve had to ensure code aligns well with the front and is well considered before throwing over the fence to production.

Key skills:
Python3 (+ 5-years)
Frameworks – Flask (Django – as long as you’ve got experience in repository patterns not just Active record / FastAPI)
Javascript – React
Typescript
Finance experience / understanding of key financial concepts within a fintech setting

The business is based in London and meets there twice a month. The firm cannot offer any sponsorship.
