Strong backend engineering experience, ideally with Node.js and TypeScript
Experience building API-first products and scalable platforms
Comfortable operating in early-stage startup environments
High levels of ownership, autonomy and commercial awareness
React experience would be advantageous but is not essential
FinTech or Financial Services experience would be beneficial

SALARY AND BENEFITS

Up to £140,000 base salary
Equity package
Hybrid working model
Opportunity to be a key early engineering hire
