Apply for the Senior Software Engineer
Location: London
Job Description:

Java Backend Engineer – Greenfield Fintech | London (Hybrid)

Multiple levels available: Associate to Senior Lead

Location: London – on-site

Build something that actually matters – from scratch.

We’re partnering with a high-growth fintech accelerator embedded within a major financial services organisation. They’re not modernising legacy systems or patching old code. They’re building brand‑new consumer fintech products from the ground up, with serious investment, a significant product roadmap, and real engineering ownership from day one.

This is a rare chance to join early, shape the architecture, and grow with the teams as they scale.

The Tech Stack:

  • Spring / Spring Boot
  • Observability & distributed tracing tooling

What You’ll Be Doing:

  • Designing and building resilient, distributed systems at scale
  • Contributing to architectural direction across greenfield platforms
  • Driving performance, reliability, and zero‑downtime delivery
  • Working in close-knit, product‑led squads alongside product managers and cross‑functional engineering teams
  • At senior and lead levels – mentoring engineers and helping shape engineering culture as the organisation grows

What We’re Looking For:

  • Strong backend engineering experience in Java or Kotlin
  • Solid understanding of distributed systems, event‑driven architecture, and cloud environments
  • A genuine sense of ownership – you care about what you ship
  • Comfortable in fast‑moving, ambiguous environments where things are still being built
  • Collaborative, pragmatic, and focused on continuous improvement

Why This One Stands Out:

  • Greenfield builds – no legacy baggage, real product ownership
  • Backed by an established financial services organisation – startup pace with enterprise stability
  • Multiple levels available, so there’s genuine room to grow
  • Hybrid working in London with a team that values engineering quality
