- Build resilient and adaptable fintech platforms and components in Java
- Refactor to improve code design
- Write lots of tests (every one of our commits is continuously and rapidly verified by thousands of tests)
- Automate the boring bits
Features of the way we work:
- We avoid silos by regularly rotating between teams to work on the whole system with an Our Code not My Code mindset and approach
- We practice trunk-based development and continuous integration: we treat every commit as releasable
- We treat broken tests as failures and revert where possible
- We practice TDD, BDD and DDD
- We automate as much as possible
- We pair program to ensure that everyone understands the context of what they are working on. We also believe that pairing drives quality, learning, cross-skilling, and builds empathy with other developers
- Sometimes we have to care about throughput and latency and so take this into account when writing code
- See Dave Farley walk through how our CI pipeline works - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bHKHdp4H-8w
