At Engine by Starling, we are on a mission to find and work with leading banks all around the world who have the ambition to build rapid growth businesses, on our technology. Engine is the technology that was built to power Starling Bank, and a year ago we split out as a separate business. In that time, Engine has made great strides in the market, and we are quickly becoming front of mind for ambitious banks, and forward thinking consultancies.
We draw upon our experience as knowledgeable bankers, and best in class technologists to become the chosen option for these banks, and preferred partners for leading consultancies.
As a company, everyone is expected to roll up their sleeves to help deliver great outcomes for our clients. We are an engineering led company and we're looking for someone who will be excited by the potential for Engine's technology to transform banking in different markets around the world.
Our technologists are at the very heart of Engine and enjoy working in a fast-paced environment that is all about building things, creating new stuff, and disruptive technology that keeps us on the cutting edge of fintech. We operate a flat structure to empower you to make decisions regardless of what your primary responsibilities may be, innovation and collaboration will be at the core of everything you do. Help is never far away in our open culture, you will find support in your team and from across the business, we are in this together!
The way to thrive and shine within Engine is to be a self-driven individual and be able to take full ownership of everything around you: From building things, designing, and discovering to sharing knowledge with your colleagues and making sure all processes are efficient and productive to deliver the best possible results for our customers. Our purpose is underpinned by five values: Listen, Keep It Simple, Do The Right Thing, Own It, and Aim For Greatness.
Hybrid Working
We have a Hybrid approach to working here at Engine - our preference is that you're located within a commutable distance of our offices so that we're able to interact and collaborate in person.
About Engineering at Engine by Starling - https://www.enginebystarling.com/
We're looking for Frontend Engineers to work on the Engine Management Portal to take our existing features and make them work for banks all over the world and build new features from scratch that Starling hasn't released in the UK market.
Engine by Starling engineers are excited about helping us deliver new features, regardless of what their primary tech stack may be. Hear more from the team in some case studies, below, and our work with Women In Tech.
* Leading at the Frontend
* Day in the Life of a Software Engineer
We are looking for engineers at all levels to join the team. We value people being engaged and caring about customers, caring about the code they write and the contribution they make to banking worldwide. People with a broad ability to apply themselves to a multitude of problems and challenges, who can work across teams do great things here at Engine, to continue changing banking for good.
As an Engineer you will:
* Contribute to our award winning platform and internal tooling
* Build new features and products from scratch in a configurable way
* Share your knowledge with those around you, contributing to our learning culture
* Own your projects, working in small teams across the bank to collaboratively deliver
* Aim for greatness in everything you do, staying curious and inquisitive
* Be part of a scaling team and organisation as we change banking for good
Requirements
Ideally you...
* Have at least 4 years of experience as a professional front-end engineer
* Will have experience with HTML5, CSS, JavaScript and know React very well
* Demonstrate experience building accessible websites and secure web applications that consume RESTful APIs and perform well
* Love coding in front-end technologies - from navigating REST APIs to tweaking that last bit of CSS to get the design system just right
* Believe in clean coding, simple solutions, automated testing and continuous deployment
* Like to take ownership of features from the original idea through to live
* Think (like us) that a small number of empowered developers is the right way to deliver software
The main part of our Frontend Tech Stack is listed below, we don't ask that you have experience in all of this, but if you do, that's great!
* HTML/CSS/JS (and increasingly TypeScript, too) with React used pretty much everywhere
* Associated libraries and frameworks like Next.JS, Gatsby, Redux, React Query and more
* Design system management (Storybooks are fairly common, little bit of CSS-in-JS, too)
* Testing tools like Jest and React Testing Library for the most part
We also stray into infrastructure work from time to time, using tools like AWS API Gateway, AWS Lambda, AWS CloudFront, GCP or Firebase. Experience of all of these is not required, but some familiarity wouldn't hurt. And if you'd like to learn any of them, we'd be more than happy to teach you.
Our Interview Process
Interviewing is a two way process and we want you to have the time and opportunity to get to know us, as much as we are getting to know you!

* First interview: :45 minutes
* Take home technical test (no time limit)

* Final Interview: :45 minutes
Benefits

* Annual leave is increased with length of service, and you can choose to buy or sell up to five extra days off
* 16 hours paid volunteering time a year
* Salary sacrifice, company enhanced pension scheme
* Life insurance at 4x your salary & group income protection
* Private Medical Insurance with VitalityHealth including mental health support and cancer care. Partner benefits include discounts with Waitrose, Mr&Mrs Smith and Peloton
