🚗 Transforming Car Finance Through Technology
I’m partnered with a fast-growing fintech on a mission to modernise and simplify the car finance experience through technology. They’re building scalable, customer-first products that make financing faster, smarter, and far less painful than traditional lenders.
Following strong growth, they’re expanding their engineering team and looking for multiple Java Engineers across mid-level and senior positions to help scale their core platform and shape the next phase of product development.
🧠 What you’ll work on
- Building and scaling backend services that power core customer and lending journeys
- Designing and evolving microservice-based architectures in a modern cloud environment
- Developing robust APIs and services using Java and Spring
- Improving platform reliability, observability, and operational excellence
- Collaborating across engineering pods to solve complex product and systems challenges
- Contributing to architecture decisions and helping shape engineering best practices
🛠️ Tech Stack - Java, Spring / Spring Boot, AWS, Microservices, GraphQL, Observability tooling (DataDog, tracing, logging)
🧩 What we’re looking for
- Strong commercial experience building backend systems with Java and Spring
- Experience working with cloud infrastructure (AWS preferred)
- Exposure to microservice architecture and distributed systems
- Strong operational awareness — comfortable thinking about monitoring, tracing, and production performance
- Engineers who take ownership and think beyond just writing code
- Comfortable discussing architecture and whiteboarding system design
- Experience using AI coding tools / engineering agents is a big plus
💡 Why join?
- Join a highly collaborative engineering team with strong technical leadership
- Flexible working model — London-based engineers typically do ~1 day/week, others ~1 day/month
- Clear progression based on impact, ownership, and engineering maturity — not just years of experience
- Opportunity to help shape the architecture of a product used at real scale
