💰£60,000 – £70,000

🚗 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
