Lorien are currently recruiting a Senior SQL developer for a fast‑growing technology company at the heart of financial data automation, supporting everyone from emerging fintech disruptors to some of the world’s most established financial institutions.
The role
In this role, you’ll become a key figure within the delivery team, taking ownership of how the platform is configured, built, and brought to life for clients. You won’t just be writing queries or tweaking logic; you’ll be shaping full end‑to‑end solutions, guiding a team through the build process, and acting as the go‑to technical expert throughout project delivery.
You’ll work closely with solution designers to turn specifications into working, reliable implementations, creating build plans, setting out testing strategies, and ensuring that delivery runs smoothly from start to finish. The work is varied, combining deep technical involvement with leadership, coaching, and hands‑on problem‑solving across complex data journeys.
As projects move through the lifecycle, you’ll lead peer reviews, oversee acceptance testing, manage defect triage, and drive the delivery of remediation releases. When go‑live approaches, you’ll prepare deployments, support clients through the transition, and ensure solutions are handed over cleanly to support teams. It’s a role where your technical judgement, attention to detail, and ability to multitask in a fast‑moving environment will make a real impact.
Role Requirements
* Experience working in a FinTech, SaaS, or financial services business.
* Strong SQL skills are important any major SQL platform is welcome.
* Comfortable defining test cases, managing defects, and guiding others through best practice.
* Strong communication, stakeholder management, and problem‑solving skills.
* Understanding of implementation lifecycles and how to deliver configuration or code to scope, time and budget.
* Experience analysing and manipulating data, tuning performance, and working with reporting tools such as SSRS or Power BI would be advantageous but not essential.
Why Join?
You’ll be part of a company that values its people, offering excellent career development, and regular opportunities to grow your technical and leadership skills.
Alongside competitive salary and bonuses, you’ll enjoy an extensive benefits package including private healthcare, enhanced pension options, extra holiday purchase, gym discounts, cashback rewards, and a day off for your birthday.
This is a high performing business who are growing fast so this is an excellent time to join them and be part of an exciting environment.
