About Touch by AJ Bell

What You'll Have

  • Excellent programming and problem-solving skills
  • Understanding of relevant software design patterns and paradigms, such as OOP, DDD, MVC, microservices, containers/orchestration, or event-driven architecture
  • You create straightforward and well-tested code.
  • You take ownership of tasks and problems, asking for help when needed to keep things moving.
  • Experience working with Investment or Pensions platforms would be an advantage.
Our Tools and Technologies

  • gRPC/proto
