We're looking for a Senior Software Engineer to support us mature, stabilise, and scale our platforms. Take charge of your growth, shape solutions and help us scale our architecture. Who are we? Common sense says that the less someone drives, the less driving should cost them. And we agree. But back in 2018, the car insurance industry didn't see it like that. So, we launched the UK's first real-time pay-by-mile policies. Since then, we've had our members covered for a massive 500 million miles of driving. It's been an epic journey (which is a bit ironic, since we're helping people who don't use their cars so much). Along the way, we've gone from plucky newcomers, to being voted Best Car Insurance Provider 3 times in a row. Though we're still very much doing things in our own, unique way - we're now backed by Direct Line Group (alongside some of the country's best known brands) What we believe in. We challenge with kindness, making sure everyone feels safe and included. We support each other. We take time to learn so that we can improve ourselves, our colleagues and our products. We're not afraid to make mistakes if it gives us the opportunity to grow. We're clear in our vision. We're happy to challenge the status quo if it will help us make things better. We own up, we don't blame. We're humble enough to take feedback on board, and respectful enough to give it. The next big idea could come from anywhere, so everyone's opinion matters. We consider before we start, whether that's interrogating details to save confusion down the line, or getting help from others. We make decisions using data, not opinions, and we use our time wisely, always staying focused on the end goal. We are looking for a Senior Backend Engineer to join our Platform team. We're a Small team, with a commitment to flexibility and autonomy. You'll work alongside a talented group of developers, QA engineers, and a dedicated product manager to support us in a modern, cloud-native environment with the freedom to improve and scale our existing architecture. With 10% professional development time carved into your working week, you'll be provided with room to grow and develop your own solutions while thriving and building APIs and services in our AWS cloud environment. You will be working with the wider engineering team to collaboratively build systems in a scalable way that meet our stakeholder needs and incorporate best practices - supporting our commercial and marketing goals and delighting our Members (By Miles policy holders). We value building platforms and systems that are resilient. The stack you'll be working with predominantly consists of Node.js hosted on AWS. Our coding philosophies are: We consider design patterns and SOLID principles where appropriate, but above all we prioritise simple code that is easy to understand, well documented and architected, and written with other humans in mind. We always code with security and testability as priorities, and we believe in a test-driven approach to development. We aim to be good citizens who don't ignore any problems we find in the codebase - we like to leave things better than we found them. You'll be a fantastic addition to By Miles if you have: In depth knowledge of relational and no-SQL databases (PostgreSQL, AWS DynamoDB) A solid grasp of TypeScript and its principles. The ability to build robust APIs and services with Node.js in an AWS cloud environment. Previously built decoupled cloud-native services leveraging modern cloud patterns, A deep understanding of SQL, enabling the efficient development and optimisation of queries. Working knowledge of infrastructure-as-code techniques (We mostly use Terraform and, CDK) A firm commitment to deploying updates using CI and CD techniques. Fantastic communication skills. You'll be open and compassionate. You'll be open and compassionate within and outside your immediate team to maintain a high level of stakeholder engagement and satisfaction. Day to day you'll be: Working with engineers, designers and product managers to develop and enhance features within our back-office Customer Experience platform. Using your strong technical skills to write good-quality, testable code, respecting and contributing to the team's coding philosophies. Drawing on your experience to optimise and improve our existing codebase, Contributing to an environment of excellence; supporting, mentoring and coaching other engineers in the team. Owning deployments, monitoring outcomes and performance of your work as it goes into production. Documenting processes and decisions to facilitate knowledge sharing within the team. Contributing to the engineering roadmap and direction of the wider team. Promoting a psychologically safe environment where colleagues can provide regular constructive feedback and praise. But it's not all about us It's just as much about you. We're an ambitious, energetic bunch and we have our sights set on great things this year. We recognise the value our people bring, with their inquisitive minds, bright ideas and fantastic attitudes, and we aim to give as much as we receive. It's only fair. Our people work from wherever works best for them. We have office space in central London - but if you prefer to work from home, you could be in Cornwall, Cardiff, Carlisle, or anywhere else in the UK (it doesn't even have to begin with 'C'). All you need is your talent and a stable internet connection. We offer an allowance to help get your workspace set up. We understand 9-5 isn't for everyone, and are always willing to talk about flexible or condensed hours, part-time work and job share opportunities. Life's short and the world is wide. After 3 years at By Miles, you'll be able to take a sabbatical and put time towards anything you like knowing your role is waiting for you.

We're looking for a Senior Software Engineer to support us mature, stabilise, and scale our platforms. Take charge of your growth, shape solutions and help us scale our architecture. Who are we? Common sense says that the less someone drives, the less driving should cost them. And we agree. But back in 2018, the car insurance industry didn't see it like that. So, we launched the UK's first real-time pay-by-mile policies. Since then, we've had our members covered for a massive 500 million miles of driving. It's been an epic journey (which is a bit ironic, since we're helping people who don't use their cars so much). Along the way, we've gone from plucky newcomers, to being voted Best Car Insurance Provider 3 times in a row. Though we're still very much doing things in our own, unique way - we're now backed by Direct Line Group (alongside some of the country's best known brands) What we believe in. We challenge with kindness, making sure everyone feels safe and included. We support each other. We take time to learn so that we can improve ourselves, our colleagues and our products. We're not afraid to make mistakes if it gives us the opportunity to grow. We're clear in our vision. We're happy to challenge the status quo if it will help us make things better. We own up, we don't blame. We're humble enough to take feedback on board, and respectful enough to give it. The next big idea could come from anywhere, so everyone's opinion matters. We consider before we start, whether that's interrogating details to save confusion down the line, or getting help from others. We make decisions using data, not opinions, and we use our time wisely, always staying focused on the end goal. We are looking for a Senior Backend Engineer to join our Platform team. We're a Small team, with a commitment to flexibility and autonomy. You'll work alongside a talented group of developers, QA engineers, and a dedicated product manager to support us in a modern, cloud-native environment with the freedom to improve and scale our existing architecture. With 10% professional development time carved into your working week, you'll be provided with room to grow and develop your own solutions while thriving and building APIs and services in our AWS cloud environment. You will be working with the wider engineering team to collaboratively build systems in a scalable way that meet our stakeholder needs and incorporate best practices - supporting our commercial and marketing goals and delighting our Members (By Miles policy holders). We value building platforms and systems that are resilient. The stack you'll be working with predominantly consists of Node.js hosted on AWS. Our coding philosophies are: We consider design patterns and SOLID principles where appropriate, but above all we prioritise simple code that is easy to understand, well documented and architected, and written with other humans in mind. We always code with security and testability as priorities, and we believe in a test-driven approach to development. We aim to be good citizens who don't ignore any problems we find in the codebase - we like to leave things better than we found them. You'll be a fantastic addition to By Miles if you have: In depth knowledge of relational and no-SQL databases (PostgreSQL, AWS DynamoDB) A solid grasp of TypeScript and its principles. The ability to build robust APIs and services with Node.js in an AWS cloud environment. Previously built decoupled cloud-native services leveraging modern cloud patterns, A deep understanding of SQL, enabling the efficient development and optimisation of queries. Working knowledge of infrastructure-as-code techniques (We mostly use Terraform and, CDK) A firm commitment to deploying updates using CI and CD techniques. Fantastic communication skills. You'll be open and compassionate. You'll be open and compassionate within and outside your immediate team to maintain a high level of stakeholder engagement and satisfaction. Day to day you'll be: Working with engineers, designers and product managers to develop and enhance features within our back-office Customer Experience platform. Using your strong technical skills to write good-quality, testable code, respecting and contributing to the team's coding philosophies. Drawing on your experience to optimise and improve our existing codebase, Contributing to an environment of excellence; supporting, mentoring and coaching other engineers in the team. Owning deployments, monitoring outcomes and performance of your work as it goes into production. Documenting processes and decisions to facilitate knowledge sharing within the team. Contributing to the engineering roadmap and direction of the wider team. Promoting a psychologically safe environment where colleagues can provide regular constructive feedback and praise. But it's not all about us It's just as much about you. We're an ambitious, energetic bunch and we have our sights set on great things this year. We recognise the value our people bring, with their inquisitive minds, bright ideas and fantastic attitudes, and we aim to give as much as we receive. It's only fair. Our people work from wherever works best for them. We have office space in central London - but if you prefer to work from home, you could be in Cornwall, Cardiff, Carlisle, or anywhere else in the UK (it doesn't even have to begin with 'C'). All you need is your talent and a stable internet connection. We offer an allowance to help get your workspace set up. We understand 9-5 isn't for everyone, and are always willing to talk about flexible or condensed hours, part-time work and job share opportunities. Life's short and the world is wide. After 3 years at By Miles, you'll be able to take a sabbatical and put time towards anything you like knowing your role is waiting for you.

We're on a mission to protect society from fraud and money laundering. We've already protected over 1.5 million people through life's big transactions, with a core aim to protect 3 million people by the end of 2024. Fraud and regulation are rising, costing the UK economy over £100bn every year; this makes it more difficult for businesses to protect themselves and their clients - individuals like you and me - from fraud and money laundering. Our co-founders Olly and Jack were led to this area when a friend was defrauded of £25K when buying their first property. At the time, anti-fraud technology didn't exist, which meant that completing the anti-fraud checks required in these processes was largely manual. These big life moments should be exciting, but instead are often confusing and scary due to the painful process of completing these paper-based checks and the risk of fraud. Thirdfort helps businesses to facilitate these anti fraud checks so that individuals know they can transact safely and seamlessly with professionals during these big transactions. Our anti-fraud platform provides a secure way for professionals in regulated sectors like Lawyers, Estate Agents and Accountants to transfer funds and verify sensitive information through app based document checks, facial recognition and open banking. Over 1,300 businesses now trust Thirdfort to verify their clients. We are FCA regulated and have raised over $25m in capital from leading Fintech investors Breega and Element Ventures, as well as the founders of Zoopla, Funding Circle, Comply Advantage, Tessian, Fenergo and Fidel. Engineering at Thirdfort At Thirdfort, we're working to build an outstanding engineering culture that empowers our team to do their best work. We have a culture which cultivates an honest and open environment, where everyone's opinions are heard and valued. We are looking for a Senior Software Engineer to join our Identity team within the Engineering function and contribute to the building out of our new Know-Your-Customer/Know-Your-Business platform used by our B2C and B2B clients, as well as represent frontend engineering across the function. The platform is cloud hosted with a JSON REST API backend (primarily Node.js and GO), microservices architecture and cryptographically secure sensitive data storage. Our Product and Tech teams are remote first and so this individual can be based anywhere in the UK. This does not mean though that our remote first team aren't welcome in our offices as we value the times when we can come together in person. Ultimately we trust our team to work in the way that suits them best. Please note we're unfortunately unable to visa sponsor for this role. As a Senior Software Engineer, you will: Support building KYB & KYC APIs that are used by our B2B clients and written in Go. Mentor and elevate other engineers, as well as championing the Identity team across the engineering function and liaising with the wider organisation including Product, Design and Client Support to aid development of our product. Factor in security and privacy when crafting solutions and reviewing other engineers' Pull Requests Pragmatically suggest and implement solutions to immediate problems but consider the long-term implications of decisions with a view to ensure there is manageable amount and complexity of technical debt. Role-model quality and encourage the rest of the department to embody this. We're looking for someone who: Has significant experience building responsive, performant backend apps with modern frameworks Has experience with / understands the core concepts of: Cloud-based applications Modern Backend Languages (Experience with Go or strong desire to learn are a must) Relational and non-relational databases Has enabled and maintained 3rd party API integrations Can independently & collaboratively craft testable solutions for backend features Has experience working with both greenfield and legacy projects, identifying bottlenecks and suggesting improvements Has worked effectively in a team with product owners, designers and other stakeholders Cares deeply code quality of backend platforms and knows how to feedback to design with these in mind Can communicate complex topics with stakeholders of varying technical ability and can generate buy in for new concepts Has worked with internal APIs and understands how to influence teams building services the platform relies on Has built and maintained tests suites for unit and integration tests And has experience, or is keen to up-skill, in the following areas: Analytics and error tracking platforms such as GA and Grafana Next.js / React to support integration with our Web Portal and Client teams Studies show that women and other less represented groups are less likely to apply for roles unless they meet every requirement. We believe in building a diverse team, valuing different skills and experiences and so if you don't think you have all the requirements listed here but feel this could be a role and environment you'd thrive in, we would still love for you to apply. Life at Thirdfort Driven by our values, our culture promotes a collaborative and open environment where Thirdforters can take ownership, have impact, and feel empowered when it comes to their growth and development. We understand the importance of our teams wellbeing and recognise a one-size fits all approach rarely works, that's why we aim to provide the flexibility individuals need to work in the way that suits them, and their families, best. We include compensation ranges on our job ads in the spirit of Operating Openly and in an effort to make our interview process more inclusive. We list a range that aligns with our internal banding which is based on varying factors including external benchmarking for our stage and size as a business. In terms of how we decide where an individual fits within the band, we'd take you through the interview process and assess you against our internal performance framework which gives us further clarity. We'll also have open conversations with you throughout the interview process (starting in the first stage call) so we can be as open as possible about compensation as we understand how important it is to ensure we're aligned.

WebCore serves over 2 billion requests a month for sites including BBC Home, News and Sport. With more BBC products coming on board every quarter , our challenge is to provide a robust and secure platform that can operate at this increasing scale while also providing the features that enable our full-stack, audience experience teams to deliver innovative and personalised experiences to BBC users. Learn more about the Web Core mission from our Head of Architecture, Matthew Clark . You can also read about how we are stretching AWS Lambda in a two-part blog post from our Technical Architect, Johnathan Ishmael (also see part 2 ). Our Teams Core Services supports every part of the developer lifecycle - creating, building, deploying, and owning. This gives us a diverse set of problem domains to tackle while also operating the systems that serve millions of requests each week. Our Platform engineers build and operate the underlying platform and infrastructure. They typically specialise in one or more systems and components, while working across the stack to build domain solutions. Within our platform area, this can mean specialising in our traffic management layers (Belfrage & Mozart), and our data aggregation and Lamdba execution layers (Fabl & Morph). You will be working with some fantastic engineers across these systems to solve fascinating problems of scale, observability, performance, high-availability and security.
