• Help ensure systems are reliable, scalable and capable of handling high transaction volumes.

• Strong commercial experience with TypeScript, particularly across backend development.

• Strong understanding of serverless architecture, ideally AWS Lambda.
• Experience designing and developing event-driven architectures and distributed systems.
• Experience building scalable APIs and backend services.

• An understanding of building reliable, high-performance systems.

Desirable:

• Experience within fintech, financial services, insurance or payments.
• Previous experience working on platforms handling high volumes of transactions.
• Experience with messaging, asynchronous processing and event streaming technologies.

This is an opportunity to join an established engineering team on a significant project, working with modern cloud technologies and contributing to the development of scalable, event-driven systems.
