About the role
Our Technology team isn’t just one of the best in the industry. It's one of the best in the world. And we’re proud of it. It’s our driving force — our engine 🚀
From building a new financial backend to creating an award-winning app, there’s nothing (and we mean nothing) our tech team can’t do.
Our Technology team isn’t here to fix legacy systems — it’s here to build world-class financial products from the ground up.
We’re looking for a Python Backend Engineer to join our Revolut People team. Revolut People is a brand new product from Revolut, a one-stop shop for all people needs, from performance and recruitment to HR. It enables companies to create a strong performance culture from the start, supporting a 30x growth, just like it did for us. If you’ve ever wanted to join a completely new product from the start, this is your chance.
As an Engineer at Revolut, you’ll never work alone. You'll work alongside the brilliant minds behind Revolut People, collaborating with Data Scientists, Analysts, and Product Owners to create impressive solutions for our customers.
Are you the one we’re looking for? Let’s get in touch.
What you’ll be doing
- Building APIs, making sure they’re properly designed and scaled as Revolut People scales
- Thinking of complex features from scratch, system designing a solution that's fast but scales
- Helping to decide which direction we should take Revolut People to become the best in-class
- Creating data pipelines, powering reporting, data science, and analytics
What you'll need
- 5+ years of experience working as a Software Engineer
- 3+ years of engineering experience with Python as your primary language
- Fluency in Python, SQL, and other OOPLs
- Experience with API development and integration
- A practical understanding of distributed systems
- Experience developing with a product-driven mindset in a fast-paced environment
- The ability to write concurrent code in IO/CPU bound situations

Nice to have
- Familiarity with prototyping and sketching
- Multiple side projects or open source contributions
- Exposure to GCP
Building a global financial super app isn’t enough. Our Revoluters are a priority, and that’s why in 2021 we launched our inaugural D&I Framework, designed to help us thrive and grow everyday. We're not just doing this because it's the right thing to do. We’re doing it because we know that seeking out diverse talent and creating an inclusive workplace is the way to create exceptional, innovative products and services for our customers. That’s why we encourage applications from people with diverse backgrounds and experiences to join this multicultural, hard-working team.
