Lead Python Engineer - London (Hybrid) - £90k - £110k


Are you a full-stack developer with experience in the FinTech world? Would you like the opportunity to build the software used by Europe’s top banks?


Our client is innovating and revolutionising the fintech world with their advanced data analytics platform, allowing financial professionals the ability to conduct credit market analysis quickly and effectively.


We are on the lookout for a Lead Engineer, specialising in Python, to join the team in London. This role offers opportunities for freedom and leadership early on, alongside the chance to be part of one of the most impactful startups in the fintech space.


What you’ll do:


You will work alongside the Head of Development, playing a vital role in designing, developing and optimising the core platform. Responsibilities include, but are not limited to:

  • Develop and improve database schemas for PostgreSQL and DynamoDB
  • Build and upkeep AWS Lambda functions
  • Design and implement RESTful APIs and other microservices
  • Collaborate with front-end developers to infuse the interactive elements of the product with server-side logic
  • Conduct code reviews
  • Train and manage junior developers


What we’re looking for:


We are looking for a highly skilled Lead Engineer with strong experience in backend development especially, particularly using Python but also Node.js, TypeScript and JavaScript. Experience with AWS Lambda, DynamoDB and PostgreSQL is essential. While the role’s primary focus is on backend engineering, there is still a requirement to be proficient in front-end technologies, such as React or Vue, but deep expertise in these is not mandatory.


Ideally, your professional background will consist of tenures at start-up companies that specialise in fintech. Previous experience at investment banks is a major plus, as well as an academic background in finance-associated areas (e.g. economics, accounting).


You will also have previous experience mentoring and training team members as in this role, you will be expected to help coach junior developers from the outset.


This role is based in London operating on a hybrid model with a minimum of 2 days a week in the office, so you must be comfortable commuting to this location.


This role is progressing quickly, so please submit your CV at the earliest opportunity to avoid disappointment and we will be in contact soon with the next steps.
