You will work across the full stack — building the React interfaces traders rely on and the Node.js services that power them — solving performance, data throughput, and UX challenges that most engineers never encounter, working directly with the trading desk.

What the Full Stack Software Engineer will be doing:

  • Design and build the Node.js services and APIs that feed those interfaces, handling high-volume, real-time market data.
  • Collaborate closely with front-office stakeholders and other engineers to translate trading workflows into robust, intuitive, end-to-end solutions.
  • Own the quality and architecture of both frontend and backend codebases — with genuine influence over technical direction.
  • Work within a distributed team across three global offices, with day-to-day presence in London.

Requirements for the Full Stack Software Engineer:

  • React expertise — you write clean, performant component architecture and know when not to use the framework.
  • Solid, hands-on Node.js experience — building and running real backend services, not just tooling or scripting.
  • Proven ability building robust, high-volume applications (frontend and backend) under real-world performance constraints.
  • Exposure to financial services, trading systems, or similarly demanding real-time data environments is a genuine advantage — not a requirement, but it will set you apart.
  • Strong communicator comfortable working across engineering, product, and trading desk stakeholders.

Benefits package includes:

  • Bonus up to 25%
  • Private medical insurance
  • Life insurance
  • 25 days holiday
  • Wellness benefits including gym membership
  • 3 days in the office per week

If you have full stack engineering experience in a high-performance or data-intensive environment and want to work on software that genuinely matters to the people using it, we'd like to hear from you.
