- Work closely with other engineers to shape the design and direction of the platform.

- Contribute to a high-visibility programme with the potential to scale significantly.

Grad scheme, placement, apprenticeship? Not sure what you want yet — that's fine. Your agent talks it through with you and turns "I have no idea" into a shortlist.
It searches the market for you
Every day your agent scans the market matching roles against what actually matters to you, not just keywords on a CV.
Only hits
No noise. No "maybe this fits." Just roles with a clear explanation of why they're right — and where to focus when applying.
We're looking for
- Strong commercial Java development experience.
- Good Linux knowledge.
- A highly hands-on approach with a clear focus on coding and delivery.
- Experience building complex, production-grade systems.
- The ability to work comfortably with ambiguity and changing requirements.
- At least 5 years of software engineering experience.
- Experience with blockchain, crypto, digital assets or tokenisation would be useful, but is not essential.
- Familiarity with AI coding tools such as Claude Code, Windsurf or Devin would be strongly preferred.
- The ability to work onsite in London 5 days per week.
