In 2021 Currencycloud was acquired by Visa; we are somewhere where innovative thinking and the power of technology know no limits. We know that the success of the business depends on the people who keep it moving, which is why we are looking for exceptional talent to join our international payments revolution. We are open & collaborative, living and breathing our company values:Be Human, Better Together and Own it. Remote working? It's a key topic at the moment.

About the role Our software engineers are responsible for implementing an industry-leading API that has already processed over $50 billion of cross-border transactions for over 5 million end users, and is available to our clients 24/7. But we're not stopping there, and our engineers are at the forefront of taking us forward to meet the demands of even greater scale. We are currently looking to rewrite all frontend components of the Currencycloud estate. This includes our world-leading white label product (Direct), our onboarding engine, and our developer portal. As a Full Stack Developer, you'll get to contribute to both frontend using tech including ReactJS, NextJS, and VueJS, and backend using NodeJS or Ruby. What will I get to do? As a Senior Full Stack Developer, you'll play a key role within your team. This involves taking responsibility for your services and the technology within them. You'll also help to develop your team, its relationship with your product owner, and the broader business. Teams are aligned to services and you'll have:- clear ownership of your domain- an independent path to production- strong platform and product support- the ability to make real changes with real business value- opportunity to provide guidance and mentoring to more junior members of the team- you won't just be passed back end data to work with; you'll collaborate with back end engineers to create solutions together What skills do I need?

We currently use Jest and Playwright Agile development, with teams broadly aligned with the Spotify - Squads & Tribes - model, helps us deliver incremental improvements to our products in an iterative manner. Advocating this model, and joining us on a journey of continuous improvement, is a key attribute of members of our teams GitHub, and the GitHub PR review process, forms a core part of our engineering workflow, and peer reviews help share knowledge and improve quality Cloud-related tools and services support these applications, such as AWS, Docker, Kubernetes, JenkinsX and Datadog APM, to name but a few Continuous Integration and Continuous Delivery pipelines allow us to "automate all the things", providing repeatable builds and consistent deployments Teamwork, and cross-team collaboration, is fundamental to the delivery of our applications. Whilst each application has an independent path to production, there will always be some activities and initiatives that span multiple teams and require cross-team collaboration.

We are a company that values flexibility and a positive work-life balance. Wherever you are located, we trust you and your manager to determine the best office arrangement for you.

Job Introduction The BBC's News and Weather Apps are two of the most well-known, well loved and widely used apps in the UK, with many millions of daily users on each platform. This is your opportunity to work with us on the next generation of these products. Historically the app development team has worked alongside a number of backend teams that provide content driving the app. However, we are changing to adopt a new app architecture strategy closely aligned with the Backend For Frontend pattern. This means we are expanding the team to be truly cross-functional with app and backend engineers working alongside each other. This role is to join our growing team of Javascript developers to help us shape our new backend for the BBC News and Weather apps What's our challenge? We face a problem of changing news consumption habits, especially with younger news readers. We know that our current users, those millions we talked about earlier, absolutely love the BBC News app, and that it serves their needs fantastically well. So far, so great... But, we also know that for millions of others the way they consume news is completely different now and that the existing app does not meet their needs. So, the "next generation" of our app will be our answer to not just discovering, and meeting the needs of this new audience, but to bringing both existing and new users together through a well considered, thoroughly tested, highly personal experience. Of course, this is no trivial thing to achieve and will require us to rethink everything from the features of the app, to the way it's architected and importantly the backend that is driving content to the app. This has led us to rethink how we architect our apps backend and we are now beginning to take that forward. Now do you see why we need you to join us? :-) How do we work? The team is formed into groups of developers concentrating on streams of work to meet different audience needs. A wider staff group made up of technical, delivery, product design and UX are there to support the developer groups. As a team we value constant feedback and self improvement. Not sure we're doing things as well as we could? Then just tell us. Everything from Lint rules to how/if/why we write JIRA tickets has been raised and debated and changed. This is your team and we have found that it runs best when everyone believes that we are all doing the best job we can, given the knowledge at hand, our skills and abilities, and the resources available. We value work/life balance as a crucial part of a healthy team, so you can expect some concerned looks if you start opening Pull Requests on a Sunday morning or firing off emails on a Friday night. We also have trained Mental First Aiders in the department if you need them and a private support line if that suits you better. What we are looking for First and foremost you'll have got to this point and be wanting in on what you've read so far. You'll be excited and enthused by the opportunity to work on a project of this scale and be ready to contribute in shaping a brand new system that will drive the next generation of the BBC News Apps. You will have a good understanding of modern Javascript stacks, strong vanilla Javascript expertise and be comfortable in use of Javascript for backend and API development. Our development environment leverages an in-house business layer ( FABL ) built on serverless technologies, providing all the support necessary to ensure developers can get on with the task of creating business logic for products that reach audiences at truly great scale.

Job Introduction The BBC's News and Weather Apps are two of the most well-known, well loved and widely used apps in the UK, with many millions of daily users on each platform. This is your opportunity to work with us on the next generation of these products. Historically the app development team has worked alongside a number of backend teams that provide content driving the app. However, we are changing to adopt a new app architecture strategy closely aligned with the Backend For Frontend pattern. This means we are expanding the team to be truly cross-functional with app and backend engineers working alongside each other. This role is to join our growing team of Javascript developers to help us shape our new backend for the BBC News and Weather apps What's our challenge? We face a problem of changing news consumption habits, especially with younger news readers. We know that our current users, those millions we talked about earlier, absolutely love the BBC News app, and that it serves their needs fantastically well. So far, so great... But, we also know that for millions of others the way they consume news is completely different now and that the existing app does not meet their needs. So, the "next generation" of our app will be our answer to not just discovering, and meeting the needs of this new audience, but to bringing both existing and new users together through a well considered, thoroughly tested, highly personal experience. Of course, this is no trivial thing to achieve and will require us to rethink everything from the features of the app, to the way it's architected and importantly the backend that is driving content to the app. This has led us to rethink how we architect our apps backend and we are now beginning to take that forward. Now do you see why we need you to join us? :-) How do we work? The team is formed into groups of developers concentrating on streams of work to meet different audience needs. A wider staff group made up of technical, delivery, product design and UX are there to support the developer groups. As a team we value constant feedback and self improvement. Not sure we're doing things as well as we could? Then just tell us. Everything from Lint rules to how/if/why we write JIRA tickets has been raised and debated and changed. This is your team and we have found that it runs best when everyone believes that we are all doing the best job we can, given the knowledge at hand, our skills and abilities, and the resources available. We value work/life balance as a crucial part of a healthy team, so you can expect some concerned looks if you start opening Pull Requests on a Sunday morning or firing off emails on a Friday night. We also have trained Mental First Aiders in the department if you need them and a private support line if that suits you better. What we are looking for First and foremost you'll have got to this point and be wanting in on what you've read so far. You'll be excited and enthused by the opportunity to work on a project of this scale and be ready to contribute in shaping a brand new system that will drive the next generation of the BBC News Apps. You will have a good understanding of modern Javascript stacks, strong vanilla Javascript expertise and be comfortable in use of Javascript for backend and API development.

Job Introduction Are you a creative technical architect (or have the experience to become one)? Do you have an interest in creating world-class websites, apps, and games? Do you want to develop groundbreaking ideas, work with cutting-edge technology, and help the BBC make incredible online experiences? Do you want to work with a range of multi-disciplinary experts, including amazing development teams who focus on best-practice engineering? This is a role to be a Senior Architect in the BBC's Audience Content Experiences team. You'll work on a range of BBC's online products running on BBC online and apps specifically aimed at children. These include Bitesize (used by over 1 million users each week to help study and revise); and our collection of games apps that educate and inspire hundreds of thousands of children. The ideal candidate will be passionate about both new technology opportunities, and new ways in which we can make websites, apps, and other digital services to entertain, educate and inform. It's an opportunity to make a difference, through being inventive and creative, and working with amazing teams. In this role, you'll work with several product and development teams, and be a member of the BBC's architecture team. As such you'll be influencing both the products you are directly responsible for and the wider BBC digital strategy. You'll need to think big-picture on the opportunities, whilst also getting into the technical details of creating products on AWS and other platforms. You'll help make our apps and websites even better. And you'll play a key role in shaping what new children's experiences could be made, so that they excite and delight users. The tech challenges you'll face in this role are tricky. You'll design and support the creation of many different solutions, for Games, Apps, Machine Learning and Server architectures. You'll be challenged regularly and will get to work on some exciting propositions. Colleagues and experts will support you at every step. And there's great opportunity to learn and grow, whilst keeping a good work-life balance. Technology Here are some of the technologies we use. If you apply for this role, we don't expect you to know all of these, as there will be opportunities to learn as you go. Most of our products & services are hosted on AWS. We use serverless technologies such as Lambda, storage technologies such as DynamoDB and S3, and many other services including API Gateway, Cloudfront, Kinesis and Athena. Our web tech stacks are predominantly based on Node.js, with a JavaScript/React.js web frontend. Our apps for children are mostly developed using the Capacitor.js framework and deployed to iOS and Android app stores. Our back-ends are mainly built using Node.js (JavaScript and TypeScript), normally as micro-services with Rest APIs and event-driven patterns. We build our games with a variety of canvas and WebGL based technologies including Pixi and Phaser . We use Python, Numpy, Scipy and AWS Lambda for our data science and machine learning algorithms. For more information on the technology used in this role, see . The day-to-day Culture: In this role, you'll work both with the architecture team and with the relevant product/engineering teams. Every day you'll collaborate with a wide range of high-calibre professionals, of all disciplines. We have an open and respectful culture where everyone's opinions are valued. Location: Most of the teams you'll work with are based in Salford; though some are also in London, Glasgow, and Cardiff. Our offices are great places to work - modern, bright, and well-equipped. Tech: You'll get a Mac laptop, access to great collaboration software (such as Slack and Zoom), and, of course, a range of other tools and software to help you do your job effectively. Growth: This is a flexible role, allowing you to shape it based on how you'd like to grow your skills and career. There are always plenty of opportunities to learn, take on new opportunities, attend conferences, and so much more. Role Responsibility Be a technology leader, in both in the BBC's architecture team, and in the Children's & Education product/engineering team. Develop the technology vision and strategy for your area, maintaining an awareness of the underlying business and technical strategic drivers and challenges faced by the BBC. Develop plans, designs and solutions that take a vision from idea to reality. Understand the technology landscape within the area that you support. Identify gaps, challenges and opportunities, and then use them to develop appropriate solutions. This will involve working with both internal teams and external suppliers. Work closely with colleagues and stakeholders from across multiple teams (including product, delivery, editorial, UX, engineering and architecture). Through collaboration, ensure everyone understands the requirements, strategy, and approach to deliver the best technology solution. Participate in the incubation of emerging technologies, architectures and approaches in order to understand the opportunities of creating new services, or using new technologies. Be able to represent the team in planning and governance meetings within your area(s) of work. Are you the right candidate? If you're the ideal candidate, you'll have experience being a software architect, either officially in a role, or as part of an engineering or similar role. You'll have created websites at scale, and/or mobile apps, and/or powerful backends (APIs, etc.) You may also have helped develop interactive experiences, games, or other products that are especially suitable for younger audiences. You'll be experienced in cloud technologies, such as AWS. And you'll know at least the fundamentals of Internet networking, databases, API design, microservices, security, and other standard technologies in a modern online SOA. Experience in machine learning, voice, or data science, is a bonus. You'll be great at working across multiple teams and with many stakeholders. This role does not involve line management, but a key element of the role is to work with and help more junior members of the team, as a technical expert. You'll be a strong communicator. This role involves a lot of collaboration with both technical and non-technical teams. You'll need to work closely with others on ideas and solutions, and on resolving technical challenges. Overall, you'll be passionate about working as a team on new technologies and opportunities, especially with regard to experiences for younger audiences.

Job Introduction Are you a creative technical architect (or have the experience to become one)? Do you have an interest in creating world-class websites, apps, and games? Do you want to develop groundbreaking ideas, work with cutting-edge technology, and help the BBC make incredible online experiences? Do you want to work with a range of multi-disciplinary experts, including amazing development teams who focus on best-practice engineering? This is a role to be a Senior Technical Architect in the BBC's Digital Products team. You'll work on a range of BBC's online products. Initially, you will focus on the sites and apps specifically aimed at children. These include Bitesize (used by over 1 million users each week to help study and revise); and our collection of games apps that educate and inspire hundreds of thousands of children. The ideal candidate will be passionate about both new technology opportunities, and new ways in which we can make websites, apps, and other digital services to entertain, educate and inform. It's an opportunity to make a difference, through being inventive and creative, and working with amazing teams. In this role, you'll work with several product and development teams, and also with the BBC's architecture teams. As such you'll be influencing both the products you are directly responsible for, and the wider BBC Online. You'll need to think big-picture on the opportunities, whilst also getting into the technical details of creating products on AWS and other platforms. You'll help make our apps and websites even better. And you'll play a key role in shaping what new children's experiences could be made, so that they excite and delight users. The tech challenges you'll face in this role are tricky. You'll design and support the creation of many different solutions, for Games, Apps, Machine Learning and Server architectures. You'll be challenged regularly and will get to work on some exciting propositions. Colleagues and experts will support you at every step. And there's great opportunity to learn and grow, whilst keeping a good work-life balance. Technology Here are some of the technologies we use. If you apply for this role, we don't expect you to know all of these, as there will be opportunities to learn as you go. Most of our products & services are hosted on AWS. We use serverless technologies such as Lambda, storage technologies such as DynamoDB and S3, and many other services including API Gateway, Cloudfront, Kinesis and Athena. Our web tech stacks are predominantly based on Node.js, with a JavaScript/React.js web frontend. Our apps for children are mostly developed using the Capacitor .js framework and deployed to iOS and Android app stores. Our back-ends are mainly built using Node.js (JavaScript and TypeScript), normally as micro-services with Rest APIs and event-driven patterns. We build our games with a variety of canvas and WebGL based technologies including Pixi and Phaser . We use Python, Numpy, Scipy and AWS Lambda for our data science and machine learning algorithms. For more information on the technology used in this role, see . The day-to-day Culture: In this role, you'll work both with the architecture team and with the relevant product/engineering teams. Every day you'll collaborate with a wide range of high-calibre professionals, of all disciplines. We have an open and respectful culture where everyone's opinions are valued. Location: Until it's completely safe to do so, we're working 100% remote. After this time, we'll likely come to the office for some of the week for collaboration. The rest of the time, you'll be able to choose whether to work at home or office - wherever you work best. Most of the teams you'll work with are based in Salford; though some are also in London, Glasgow, and Cardiff. Our offices are great places to work - modern, bright, and well-equipped. Tech: You'll get a Mac laptop, access to great collaboration software (such as Slack and Zoom), and, of course, a range of other tools and software to help you do your job effectively. Growth: This is a flexible role, allowing you to shape it based on how you'd like to grow your skills and career. There are always plenty of opportunities to learn, take on new opportunities, attend conferences, and so much more. Role Responsibility Be a technology leader, in both in the BBC's digital architecture team, and in the Children's & Education product/engineering team. Develop the technology vision and strategy for your area, maintaining an awareness of the underlying business and technical strategic drivers and challenges faced by the BBC. Develop plans, designs and solutions that take a vision from idea to reality. Understand the technology landscape within the area that you support. Identify gaps, challenges and opportunities, and then use them to develop appropriate solutions. This will involve working with both internal teams and external suppliers. Work closely with colleagues and stakeholders from across multiple teams (including product, delivery, editorial, UX, engineering and architecture). Through collaboration, ensure everyone understands the requirements, strategy, and approach to deliver the best technology solution. Participate in the incubation of emerging technologies, architectures and approaches in order to understand the opportunities of creating new services, or using new technologies. Be able to represent the team in planning and governance meetings within your area(s) of work. Are you the right candidate? If you're the ideal candidate, you'll have experience being a software architect, either officially in a role, or as part of an engineering or similar role. You'll have created websites at scale, and/or mobile apps, and/or powerful backends (APIs, etc.) You may also have helped develop interactive experiences, games, or other products that are especially suitable for younger audiences. You'll be experienced in cloud technologies, such as AWS. And you'll know at least the fundamentals of Internet networking, databases, API design, microservices, security, and other standard technologies in a modern online SOA. Experience in machine learning, voice, or data science, is a bonus. You'll be great at working across multiple teams and with many stakeholders. This role does not involve line management, but a key element of the role is to work with and help more junior members of the team, as a technical expert. You'll be a strong communicator. This role involves a lot of collaboration with both technical and non-technical teams. You'll need to work closely with others on ideas and solutions, and on resolving technical challenges. Overall, you'll be passionate about working as a team on new technologies and opportunities, especially with regard to experiences for younger audiences. Package Description Band: D Contract type: Permanent Location: Salford (Flexible working options available) We're happy to discuss flexible working.

And there's great opportunity to learn and grow, whilst keeping a good work-life balance. Technology Here are some of the technologies we use. If you apply for this role, we don't expect you to know all of these, as there will be opportunities to learn as you go. Most of our products & services are hosted on AWS. We use serverless technologies such as Lambda, storage technologies such as DynamoDB and S3, and many other services including API Gateway, Cloudfront, Kinesis and Athena. Our web tech stacks are predominantly based on Node.js, with a JavaScript/React.js web frontend. Our apps for children are mostly developed using the Capacitor .js framework and deployed to iOS and Android app stores. Our back-ends are mainly built using Node.js (JavaScript and TypeScript), normally as micro-services with Rest APIs and event-driven patterns. We build our games with a variety of canvas and WebGL based technologies including Pixi and Phaser . We use Python, Numpy, Scipy and AWS Lambda for our data science and machine learning algorithms. For more information on the technology used in this role, see . The day-to-day Culture: In this role, you'll work both with the architecture team and with the relevant product/engineering teams. Every day you'll collaborate with a wide range of high-calibre professionals, of all disciplines. We have an open and respectful culture where everyone's opinions are valued. Location: Until it's completely safe to do so, we're working 100% remote. After this time, we'll likely come to the office for some of the week for collaboration. The rest of the time, you'll be able to choose whether to work at home or office - wherever you work best. Most of the teams you'll work with are based in Salford; though some are also in London, Glasgow, and Cardiff. Our offices are great places to work - modern, bright, and well-equipped. Tech: You'll get a Mac laptop, access to great collaboration software (such as Slack and Zoom), and, of course, a range of other tools and software to help you do your job effectively. Growth: This is a flexible role, allowing you to shape it based on how you'd like to grow your skills and career. There are always plenty of opportunities to learn, take on new opportunities, attend conferences, and so much more. Role Responsibility Be a technology leader, in both in the BBC's digital architecture team, and in the Children's & Education product/engineering team. Develop the technology vision and strategy for your area, maintaining an awareness of the underlying business and technical strategic drivers and challenges faced by the BBC. Develop plans, designs and solutions that take a vision from idea to reality. Understand the technology landscape within the area that you support. Identify gaps, challenges and opportunities, and then use them to develop appropriate solutions. This will involve working with both internal teams and external suppliers. Work closely with colleagues and stakeholders from across multiple teams (including product, delivery, editorial, UX, engineering and architecture). Through collaboration, ensure everyone understands the requirements, strategy, and approach to deliver the best technology solution. Participate in the incubation of emerging technologies, architectures and approaches in order to understand the opportunities of creating new services, or using new technologies. Be able to represent the team in planning and governance meetings within your area(s) of work. Are you the right candidate? If you're the ideal candidate, you'll have experience being a software architect, either officially in a role, or as part of an engineering or similar role. You'll have created websites at scale, and/or mobile apps, and/or powerful backends (APIs, etc.) You may also have helped develop interactive experiences, games, or other products that are especially suitable for younger audiences. You'll be experienced in cloud technologies, such as AWS. And you'll know at least the fundamentals of Internet networking, databases, API design, microservices, security, and other standard technologies in a modern online SOA. Experience in machine learning, voice, or data science, is a bonus. You'll be great at working across multiple teams and with many stakeholders. This role does not involve line management, but a key element of the role is to work with and help more junior members of the team, as a technical expert. You'll be a strong communicator. This role involves a lot of collaboration with both technical and non-technical teams. You'll need to work closely with others on ideas and solutions, and on resolving technical challenges. Overall, you'll be passionate about working as a team on new technologies and opportunities, especially with regard to experiences for younger audiences.
