Senior Software Engineer
High-Growth FinTech
Central London - Hybrid
Up to £120,000 + Equity
We're working with a well-backed, product-led fintech that's scaling fast and building genuinely disruptive technology in a market ripe for change. With strong technical foundations, a high bar for engineering quality, and a product that solves a real problem at real scale - they're looking to add a backend-centric Senior Software Engineer to their growing function.
You'll be a key contributor across backend systems - owning design, architecture, and delivery of core infrastructure. You'll collaborate closely with product, mentor other engineers, and be trusted to make autonomous calls on complex, ambiguous problems.

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.
