RVU Co UK

Staff Software Engineer (Full Stack: TypeScript, React, Node.js) Department: Engineering Employment Type: Full Time Location: London Description Hybrid: 2 days per week in our Tower Bridge office (Wednesdays & Thursdays) money.co.uk exists to help consumers make more informed financial decisions. Our free, online comparison service allows consumers to compare financial products, from credit cards to savings accounts, loans to travel money. We want our users to feel reassured that we're on their side when it comes to their finances. We're part of RVU, a group of online brands that include: Confused, Uswitch, Tempcover, and Mojo Mortgages. We are known as the Financial Services team for Uswitch, Confused and money.co.uk, and our goal is to be the UK's favourite way to choose the best financial products for big life events - from credit cards to use while travelling, to savings accounts to help move you closer to a dream purchase. We build the web apps, back office systems and tooling that power financial product comparison, integrate with our partners' APIs, track sales, optimise marketing and drive reporting. We are currently growing our offering to small and medium businesses. Our stack is TypeScript, React and Node.js (Bun where it fits), running on Kubernetes in AWS. Key Responsibilities As a Staff Software Engineer you will set the technical direction for Financial Services and raise the standard the team holds itself to. You will work across the full stack (infrastructure, databases, pipelines, servers, CDNs, responsive accessible React components aligned to our design system, real-time metrics and alerting) with product managers, commercial managers, ops executives, data analysts, designers and other engineers. Most of your day lands on the front end, but you own quality end to end. You will turn commercial and customer problems into working software, and put a value on the problems worth solving first. You will make the engineers around you better, measured by what the team ships rather than what you ship alone (we do not hire lone wolves). You will run code reviews, give and take direct feedback without ego, and keep our applications tested, secure and maintainable. We already run AI inside live workflows and have several projects with AI at the core. You will find concrete uses for AI that move a metric, then help other teams adopt what actually works. We treat AI fluency as a core requirement, so expect to show, in interview, where you have used AI tooling to ship real work. What we're looking for We are looking for a technical expert who raises the whole team's output. You strike the balance between rigour and urgency: you know when detail matters and when it is a valueless rabbit hole. You have built everything from MVPs to large scale production systems, and you can debug complex systems well enough that the right improvement becomes obvious. You keep up with the industry, assess new libraries, tools and approaches on evidence, and adopt the ones that pay off. Skills required: Strong TypeScript, and you argue for statically typed languages on their merits Deep Node.js ecosystem knowledge (node, npm, yarn), including bundling and dependency management (Bun a plus) Proficient with AI tooling, including shipping code via CLI or editor-based LLM agents and using MCP servers Solid grasp of the React paradigm (one-way data binding, declarative programming, rules of hooks, common anti-patterns) Practical software engineering principles and complexity management (separation of concerns, design patterns, domain-driven design), and a bias towards clean, simple code Familiarity with container-based cloud-native applications and patterns such as REST APIs, message passing, horizontal and vertical scaling, and load balancing Awareness of web security concerns (SQL injection, XSS, CORS, cookies, authentication and authorisation) Nice to have: Kubernetes, Prometheus, Grafana, Argo Workflows, GitHub Actions, Elasticsearch/OpenSearch, PostgreSQL, BigQuery, dbt data pipelines, Fastly, Storybook, component libraries and design systems, Bun. You will not tick every box on this list, and we would rather you applied than talked yourself out of it. We expect you to keep learning here, and we will back you to do it. What we offer We want to give you a great work environment, support your growth both personally and professionally, and provide benefits that make your time at RVU even more enjoyable. Here are some of the benefits you can look forward to: 10% discretionary yearly bonus and yearly pay reviews (based on RVU and personal performance) A hybrid working approach with 2 in-office days per week and up to 22 working days per year to "work from anywhere" Employer-matching pension contributions up to 7.5% A one-off £300 "work from home" budget to help contribute towards a great work environment at home Excellent maternity, paternity, shared parental, and adoption leave policy, for those key moments in your life 25 days holiday (increasing with years of employment to 30 days) + 2 days "my time" per year Private medical cover, critical illness cover, and employee assistance programme A healthy learning and training budget Electric vehicle and cycle to work schemes Free in-office gym, accessible 7 days a week Free breakfast in the office daily You'll be equipped with great technology (choice of Mac or Windows) Free access to the Calm and Peppy app for physical and mental health Regular events - from team socials to company-wide events with insightful external speakers, we want to make sure our colleagues continue to feel connected.

You provide the tooling, infrastructure, and developer experience that let product teams deliver with confidence, and you bring those teams with you as you introduce shared standards. We want engineers who care about the people who use what they build, and who judge their work by whether delivery speed and reliability actually improve. What you'll be doing Lead and evangelise. Set platform direction and take the organisation with you. Champion the platform offering to engineers and product owners, justify the standards you introduce, and absorb the challenge that comes with moving people towards a shared, opinionated platform. Rigour: Use logs, metrics, and cost data to decide what to build and to prove whether it worked, not only to monitor what already runs. Ownership: Hold ownership of technical strategy and decisions across the platform, its domains, and its systems. Make those decisions collaboratively and back them with data. Delivery: Own the stack end to end against business requirements. Build efficient CI/CD pipelines and robust DevOps practices. Reliability: Run containers at scale on Kubernetes. Keep systems performant, scalable, and reliable, and design them to tolerate failure. Collaboration: Work directly with different engineering teams so your tools solve real problems, not assumed ones. Culture: Share what you know and challenge what you disagree with in technical forums, working groups, and all hands. AI-assisted delivery: use AI development tools such as Claude to build and ship in languages the team is less experienced in, and set the standard for how to do that well and safely.

This is a leadership role, not a pure individual-contributor one. Built and operated highly available, scalable, consumer-facing systems in both large and small agile teams. Designed and built cost-optimised cloud platforms from the ground up, preferably Azure, on well-architected principles. Deep experience running containers at scale on Kubernetes, ideally Azure Kubernetes Service (AKS). Strong observability practice, for platform and cluster health and as a product shipped to teams. A broad grasp of platform, developer experience (DevEx) and SRE across the whole delivery lifecycle: performance, analytics and security, not one narrow speciality. Rolled out SLOs across an organisation to drive error budgets and alerting, built fault-tolerant systems, and comfortable with incident and problem management. Fluent with AI development tools such as Claude, and able to set the standard for using them well and safely to build in unfamiliar languages. Learns unfamiliar technology fast and grasps it strategically, rather than plateauing at surface level. Command of the software development lifecycle: testing, version control, branching, and deployment. Built APIs or CLIs that solve internal problems and give engineers self-service tooling. Pragmatic and outcome-focused: you ship daily, own your decisions, and treat feedback and failed experiments as how you learn.

As we continue to grow and expand our services, we are looking for talented individuals who share our passion for making a positive impact on people's lives. If you want to be part of a team that is transforming the way consumers navigate their finances, we would love to hear from you. The team The Financial Services team enables RVU to help customers make the best decisions around financial products, by helping them identify the right products from our partners across our three main brands Uswitch, and money.co.uk. Our engineering team build the web apps, back office systems and tooling used to deliver the financial products pages across RVU's websites, integrate with our partners, track sales, optimise marketing, and manage business reporting. We are currently growing our offering to small and medium businesses by driving deeper integration with our partners' APIs, improving our customers' experience on our platform, streamlining customer journeys, and ensuring that the business has all the data it needs at its fingertips. Our technology stack is centred around Typescript, React and Node/Bun, running on Kubernetes in AWS. What you'll be doing Joining our team as a Lead (or Staff) Software Engineer, you will be working closely with business leads, commercial managers, ops executives, product managers, data analysts, designers and fellow engineers to solve business problems with software. This is a Lead/Staff level role with a bias towards technical expertise over management. As a product team a lot of our time is spent on the front end, but you'll be contributing across the full stack from infrastructure, databases, pipelines, servers, CDNs, to web UIs and monitoring and analysing performance. This includes building responsive accessible React components aligned with our design system, working with APIs, using real-time metrics and alerting, interacting with databases, and keeping our applications secure. You will help to identify opportunities for process improvements, conduct code reviews, and ensure solutions are properly tested with a focus on best practices and quality assurance. We're leaning-in to the current AI revolution, having incorporated AI into several of our workflows, and we're actively working on a number of projects with AI at the core. So you'll also be working closely with AI not just as a development tool, but as a business enabler. This includes finding new and better ways to leverage AI to generate lasting value, and evangelising AI adoption across the business. Most importantly, you will be supporting and improving the engineering team's delivery & technical expertise in a continuous learning environment. You'll contribute to defining and maintaining best practices to ensure our software remains robust, scalable and maintainable, using your technical skills to help shape the future of Financial Services within RVU, inspiring and guiding the team along the way. What we're looking for We're looking for a technical expert who will be a multiplier for the team: bringing your own experience and knowledge to enrich the skills and foster the growth of our high performing engineering team. This is a full stack role, so you'll be just as comfortable building cloud-native scalable applications as you are at styling responsive React components. But as a staff engineer you will go beyond just delivering features. You will be empowering the whole team to create robust well-tested software that works everywhere, ensuring attention to detail, but knowing when to pull them back to avoid getting stuck down valueless rabbit holes. You will have experience ranging from building MVPs through to large scale production systems, in each case knowing where to strike the balance between rigour and urgency, comfortable making pragmatic decisions that benefit the business. You will identify friction points and potential improvements and be able to put a business value on them so the team can focus their efforts appropriately to maximise return to the organisation. In addition, it's important that you understand the benefits that AI can bring to a business like ours, so we're also looking for experience developing AI enabled applications and workflows. This includes knowledge around platforms and frameworks (e.g. N8N, Mastra), context engineering, using vector stores, RAG, fine-tuning and evaluation. You will have a growth mindset, always keen to learn and explore, and you like to dig deep to understand how things work. You will be able to debug large and complex systems, not just fixing the problems, but building a fundamental understanding of how the system works to the point where improvements become obvious. You will keep abreast of industry developments: assessing and introducing new libraries, new technologies, new tools and new approaches, in particular leveraging advances in AI technology to the benefit of the team and the business. Other skills required for the role include: Strong Typescript skills, convinced of the benefits of statically typed languages Deep knowledge of the Node ecosystem (node, npm, yarn), including bundling and dependency management. Familiarity with Bun is also desirable Proficient with AI tooling including delivering code using CLI or editor-based LLM agents, and using MCP servers Solid understanding of the React paradigm, including one-way data binding, declarative programming, rules of hooks, react anti-patterns Practical experience of software engineering principles and managing complexity (e.g. separation of concerns, design patterns, domain-driven design) and an appreciation and aspiration to write elegant clean code, understanding that simple often isn't easy Familiarity with container-based cloud-native applications, and architectural patterns such as REST APIs, message passing, horizontal and vertical scaling and load balancing Knowledge of web security concerns (e.g. SQL injection, XSS, CORS, cookies, authentication/authorisation techniques). Experience with the following is a plus: Kubernetes, Prometheus, Argo workflows, GitHub Actions, Elasticsearch/Opensearch, PostgreSQL, BigQuery, DBT data pipelines, Fastly, Storybook, component libraries and design systems, Builder.io, Bun. You don't need to tick off everything on this list - so don't let that hold you back from applying. We want to make sure you're learning plenty during your time with us! Our commitment to you We are dedicated to developing valuable, inclusive, and user-friendly products and services that deliver positive outcomes for all of our customers. To achieve this, it's essential that our teams reflect the diverse range of people in our community. We believe in being the change we wish to see in the world, by embracing our differences and holding ourselves accountable to being open and inclusive teammates and wider community members. What we offer We want to give you a great work environment, support your growth both personally and professionally, and provide benefits that make your time at RVU even more enjoyable. Here are some of the benefits you can look forward to: 10% discretionary yearly bonus and yearly pay reviews (based on RVU and personal performance) A hybrid working approach with 2 in-office days per week and up to 22 working days per year to "work from anywhere" Employer-matching pension contributions up to 7.5% A one-off £300 "work from home" budget to help contribute towards a great work environment at home Excellent maternity, paternity, shared parental, and adoption leave policy, for those key moments in your life 25 days holiday (increasing with years of employment to 30 days) + 2 days "my time" per year Private medical cover, critical illness cover, and employee assistance programme A healthy learning and training budget Electric vehicle and cycle to work schemes Free in-office gym, accessible 7 days a week Free breakfast in the office daily You'll be equipped with great technology (choice of Mac or Windows) Free access to the Calm and Peppy app for physical and mental health Regular events - from team socials to company-wide events with insightful external speakers, we want to make sure our colleagues continue to feel connected.
