Job Description

Here your code runs in production, not in a drawer: a fintech start-up in Montague Gardens. This role rewards consistency more than flash.

You'll be based at a fintech start-up in Montague Gardens. Living nearby, or on a taxi route to it, really helps. There's a probation period of three months before the contract is confirmed.

The work, day to day

  • Deploy through a CI/CD pipeline on Azure DevOps, GitHub Actions or GitLab
  • Write unit and integration tests before you merge
  • Join daily stand-ups and sprint planning
  • Review teammates' pull requests with useful comments
  • Investigate production bugs using logs and monitoring dashboards

Must-haves

  • Commercial experience in at least one of PHP, C#, Java, Python or JavaScript
  • Good SQL and understanding of relational databases
  • Experience writing automated tests
  • Solid Git habits: branches, pull requests and meaningful commit messages

On offer

  • Medical aid and retirement fund
  • Paid certification exams and learning budget
  • Hybrid or fully remote work
  • Laptop and data allowance
