We started our journey back in 2005, building the first ever peer-to-peer lending company. Fast forward to 2020 and we launched Zopa Bank. A bank that listens to what our customers don’t like about finance and does the opposite. We’re redefining what it feels like to work in finance. Our vision for a new era of banking puts people front and centre — we’ve built a business that empowers everyone to aim high, every day, to move finance forward.
The engineering challenge
Our Software Engineers don't just write code, they solve real financial problems for millions of customers. You'll work on distributed systems processing thousands of transactions daily, build resilient services that handle people's money, and create experiences that make traditionally complex financial products feel simple.
You love shipping great products, not just writing superb code. You feel comfortable in a fast-moving environment and are ambitious about the speed and quality of your code. We ship our code multiple times a week with the impact measured in the result for the customer, not lines of code.
A strong commitment to quality is essential. You've worked on large scale distributed software systems that have proven scalability and complex topologies. You'll work with Kotlin, Kafka, Kubernetes, Docker, AWS Aurora Postgres, and other modern technologies. Experience building distributed systems at scale.
Added bonus:
- Experience with fintech or banking is a plus, but we value problem-solvers from all backgrounds.
Towards the end of 2025 Zopa will be relocating to a brand-new headquarters at 20 Water Street in Canary Wharf. At Zopa we value flexible ways of working. We value face-to-face collaboration and a good work-life balance. This hybrid role requires you to come to our London office 2-3 days a week.
Diversity Statement
Diversity of experience, perspectives, and backgrounds leads to better products for our customers and a unique company culture for our people.
