Engineering at Thirdfort

At Thirdfort, we’re working to build an outstanding engineering culture that empowers our team to do their best work. We have a culture which cultivates an honest and open environment, where everyone’s opinions are heard and valued.

We are looking for a Senior Software Engineer to join our Identity team within the Engineering function and contribute to the building out of our new Know-Your-Customer/Know-Your-Business platform used by our B2C and B2B clients, as well as represent frontend engineering across the function. The platform is cloud hosted with a JSON REST API backend (primarily Node.js and GO), microservices architecture and cryptographically secure sensitive data storage.

Our Product and Tech teams are remote first and so this individual can be based anywhere in the UK. This does not mean though that our remote first team aren’t welcome in our offices as we value the times when we can come together in person. Ultimately we trust our team to work in the way that suits them best.

As a Senior Software Engineer, you will:

  • Support building KYB & KYC APIs that are used by our B2B clients and written in Go.

  • Factor in security and privacy when crafting solutions and reviewing other engineers’ Pull Requests
  • Pragmatically suggest and implement solutions to immediate problems but consider the long-term implications of decisions with a view to ensure there is manageable amount and complexity of technical debt.
  • Role-model quality and encourage the rest of the department to embody this.

We’re looking for someone who:

  • Has significant experience building responsive, performant backend apps with modern frameworks
  • Has experience with / understands the core concepts of:
  • Cloud-based applications
  • Modern Backend Languages (Experience with Go or strong desire to learn are a must)
  • Modern CI/CD pipelines
  • Relational and non-relational databases
  • Has enabled and maintained 3rd party API integrations
  • Can independently & collaboratively craft testable solutions for backend features
  • Has experience working with both greenfield and legacy projects, identifying bottlenecks and suggesting improvements
  • Has worked effectively in a team with product owners, designers and other stakeholders
  • Cares deeply code quality of backend platforms and knows how to feedback to design with these in mind
  • Can communicate complex topics with stakeholders of varying technical ability and can generate buy in for new concepts
  • Has worked with internal APIs and understands how to influence teams building services the platform relies on
  • Has built and maintained tests suites for unit and integration tests

And has experience, or is keen to up-skill, in the following areas:

  • Analytics and error tracking platforms such as GA and Grafana
  • Next.js / React to support integration with our Web Portal and Client teams

Studies show that women and other less represented groups are less likely to apply for roles unless they meet every requirement. We believe in building a diverse team, valuing different skills and experiences and so if you don’t think you have all the requirements listed here but feel this could be a role and environment you’d thrive in, we would still love for you to apply.
