We are working with a global financial institution building a new engineering team focused on developing a large-scale internal platform within a critical business area.This is a greenfield initiative focused on modernising and scaling internal technology capabilities through high-quality engineering and platform design. The environment is highly technical, hands-on, and focused on building reliable distributed systems within a regulated environment.Key ResponsibilitiesDesign and build scalable, distributed systems handling high volumes of financial and transactional dataContribute directly to architecture, system design, and hands-on software developmentDrive engineering best practices across automation, testing, observability, and performanceBuild resilient, production-grade systems with a strong focus on reliability and scalabilityWork across the full software development lifecycle from design through to production supportPartner closely with engineering and product leadership to shape technical directionMentor and support engineers within a small, high-performing teamKey RequirementsStrong experience building large-scale distributed systems within financial services or other regulated environmentsExpert-level Java engineering experience, ideally within microservices and event-driven architecturesExperience with Spring Boot and modern backend engineering practicesExposure to Angular or TypeScript within full-stack environmentsStrong understanding of system design, scalabil
