London, Greater London, United Kingdom Oaknorth Analytical Intelligence Full time

About OakNorth Bank

We're a bank that emboldens entrepreneurs to realise their ambitions, understand their markets and apply data intelligence to everyday decisions to scale successfully at pace.

Our mission is to be the financial partner for our customers, servicing all their financial needs. We've built a successful lending business that has funded over 28,000 new homes and created over 55,000 jobs.

We're in the early stages of building a full-stack bank with plenty of challenges to solve; curious, collaborative and creative leaders are needed to help us along the way.

The Role:

  • We're looking for a global Engineering leader who can build, nurture and scale high-performing teams that achieve business objectives and customer outcomes. This role requires an orientation around our customers (SMEs in the UK and US) - you should be excited by building technology that delivers to customer needs, solves customer problems, builds customer delight and affinity to OakNorth.
  • You will report to our London-based CTO and be part of a Senior Engineering leadership team spanning multiple geographies, time zones, customer segments and business propositions. You will be creating new digital experiences for our customers, but this is not a green field project, so legacy systems, team transformation and systems migration will be a significant part of this role.
  • As an Engineering Director, you will be responsible for removing roadblocks, ensuring processes are lean, efficient and helping develop members of your team by teaching them the necessary skills to grow their career.
  • Create a culture of transparency and collaboration, lead by example in a flat organisational structure.
  • Have a strong technical background, including 10+ years of experience designing and engineering large-scale systems, preferably including fintech or challenger/neobank environments.
  • You have worked in startups, built and launched products, scaled teams and have a strong understanding of product and commercial aspects of a business.
  • Responsible for technical delivery and ensuring that the squad understands and focuses on the goal.
  • Measure your success in terms of business impact, not lines of code.
  • Internalise the best ideas from across the organisation, humbly setting a vision that others can get behind.
  • Reinforce engineering best practices; TDD, IaC, observability, security by design, continuous improvement.

Tech Stack:

  • TypeScript, React, styled-components.
  • Python for any new development; there are some Java components gradually being phased out.
  • PostgreSQL, BigQuery, MySQL.
  • Jest, React Testing Library, Cypress, pytest.
  • AWS for transactional workloads, GCP for data workloads.
  • Kubernetes, Docker, Terraform, GitHub, GitHub Actions.

Estimated Salary Range: £120,000-£180,000 per annum, depending on location and experience.
