TrueLayer’s Back End Engineers are the backbone of our API. We count
on our backend engineering team to build a product developers love to
use to build financial applications that interact with banks. They work
on the logic that abstracts away the complexity of financial
infrastructure from developers, so our users can focus on building their
products.
We’re looking for a visionary senior software engineer who sees the
big picture of where financial technology is headed. We want our
engineers to be passionate about solving problems with an exceptionally
high engineering quality, as we continue in our journey financial
technology forward.
We use a range of exciting technologies including Node.JS to write
our API code, Docker and Kubernetes to schedule and run our services,
AWS for our infrastructure, ElasticSearch, Redis and more to get the job
done.
Who we are:
At TrueLayer, we build universal APIs that allow companies to access
the financial data of their customers, securely, reliably and
efficiently.
Headquartered in London, we’re a small team of talented, creative
problem-solvers who are working hard to build the most innovative
financial technology possible. Our goal: to power the new era of
financial innovation.
And, we’re just getting started.
What you will do:
- Own, operate, build and maintain TrueLayer’s APIs;
- Own new products and features, from breaking down requirements,
planning tasks for other engineers and shipping to production in 3-week

- Lead code reviews and provide guidance for junior engineers to maximize their potential;
- Collaborate on the product roadmap with Product, Sales and Customer Support functions;
- Help the most successful FinTech companies to use our API;

user-centric culture;
- Are comfortable dealing with a lot of moving pieces with the ability to prioritise;
- Have a hacker mentality: you are perfectly capable of
understanding cryptography and fixing the coffee machine at the same
time.
- Enjoy being part of a small team and are actively thinking of ways
to enhance our processes, our internal tools, and the way we work.
