Director – Ruby Specialist at KE Technology
Staff Software Engineer (Python / Rust / C++ / Golang)
London – Hybrid (3 days onsite)
We’re building the next generation of real-time, low-latency data systems – processing billions of transactions globally.
This is a hands-on Staff Engineer role where you’ll take on complex challenges in distributed, event‑driven architecture, focusing on scale, performance, and reliability.
Why You’ll Love It
- Build and optimise real-time distributed systems at a global scale
- Lead deep dives into latency, throughput, and observability
- Stay close to the code while shaping architecture and direction
- Be part of an engineering‑led culture with standout benefits:
- Full private health insurance
- Extended maternity and paternity leave
- In‑office chefs providing fresh daily meals
- Work remotely from anywhere for one month each year
What We’re Looking For
- Strong coding skills in Python, Rust, C++ or Go
- Experience with high‑performance or distributed systems
- Familiarity with Kubernetes, Kafka, AWS, Terraform, and CI/CD
- A collaborative engineer who enjoys solving complex problems and learning new domains
Compensation
Up to £160,000 base, 25% performance bonus, and equity, plus full benefits and hybrid flexibility.
If you’re motivated by solving complex engineering problems and want to help shape the backbone of a global real‑time platform, we’d love to hear from you.
