Staff Software Engineer - Fintech

Ebury, a rapidly growing FinTech company recognized among Europe's top 15 Fintechs, is seeking a Principal Software Engineer to join their technology team. This role offers an exceptional opportunity to shape the future of financial technology while working on a platform that serves clients globally.

The position combines technical leadership with hands-on development, requiring expertise in both frontend and backend technologies. The tech stack primarily includes Python/Django and Node.js for backend development, with React/VueJS on the frontend. However, the company values technological adaptability over specific framework experience.

As a Principal Engineer, you'll be instrumental in driving the company's technical strategy, making architectural decisions that impact the entire platform, and fostering a culture of engineering excellence. The role demands someone with over 10 years of experience who can balance technical depth with business acumen, capable of tackling complex problems that have long-term implications for the company's success.

Ebury offers an inclusive and diverse work environment, with teams spread across South America and Europe. The company provides competitive benefits, including equity participation, comprehensive professional development opportunities, and a structured career progression framework. They particularly value candidates who bring fresh perspectives and encourage applications from diverse backgrounds, even if they don't exactly match all requirements.

The hybrid work model (4 days office, 1 day remote) provides flexibility while maintaining strong team collaboration. You'll be part of a company that has received significant investment (£350 million from Banco Santander) and continues to expand internationally, currently with over 1700 staff across 25+ countries.

This role is perfect for someone who wants to make a significant impact in the FinTech sector while working with cutting-edge technologies and contributing to open-source projects. The position offers the rare combination of technical leadership, hands-on development, and the opportunity to shape the future of international financial services.
