Are you passionate about development

The Touch team is developing a next generation investment platform. We want to use technology to improve the way consumers access financial advice and manage their investments.

The majority of existing platforms are still reliant on software and processes that arent capable of supporting todays technology so we started from scratch developing a modern platform that is as efficient as possible.

Were building a mobile first investment app that lets advisers manage their clients investments entirely through their Smartphone.

Were seeking passionate engineers to join the team.

If youre ready to take your career to the next level apply now

What youll do:

  • Design manage and extend Infrastructure as Code (IaC)
  • Monitor environments for performance errors and security catching issues before customers even notice. Focus on low levels of toil by improving tooling and processes.
  • Infrastructure hardening including resolutions from pen tests audit and other thirdparty testing of our estate.
  • Make changes to Go Typescript or Flutter code to support infrastructure changes.
  • Work as part of a distributed team made up of selfmotivated and collaborative individuals. Much of our communication is remote and async so good communication skills are key.
  • Always look for ways we can improve our product processes and practices. We dont like friction and waste.
  • Automated testing continuous integration and continuous deployment. We are huge proponents of automation.
  • Work outside of your specialism when needed. While all our team members have a specialism we dont let that restrain us. Our engineers jump in to help get things done even in technologies out of their core competency.

What youll have:

  • Excellent programming and problem solving skills
  • Understanding of relevant software design patterns and paradigms such as microservices containers/orchestration or eventdriven architecture
  • Experience in creating performant scalable secure and well tested infrastructure.
  • You take ownership of tasks and problems clearing roadblocks and pulling in other people to help when needed.
  • Experience working with Investment or Pensions platforms would be an advantage

Our tools and technologies:

The below are all things that we are either currently using or have found to be a useful foundation when joining our team. Prior knowledge of them is not essential but would be beneficial to the role:

  • CI/CD pipelines (we use GitLab)
  • Cloud infrastructure (we use Google Cloud Platform)
  • Containers (building operations security and orchestration; we use Kubernetes)
  • Go (we can offer training for experienced engineers who havent used Go before)
  • Experience of penetration testing and audit
  • Infrastructure as Code (we use Terraform and Terragrunt)
  • Networking (layer 4 and 7 load balancing DNS mTLS)
  • Observability systems (were particularly interested in Prometheus Grafana and
  • OpenTelemetry)
  • PKI (particularly Vault)
  • Scripting (we predominantly use Bash and Go)
  • PostgreSQL
