Description
About Freetrade:
At Freetrade, we believe investing should be accessible to everyone. It’s one of the best ways to grow your savings, but for many, it seems complicated, expensive, and out of reach. We’re here to change that.
We’re building a team with diverse and unique perspectives to help us on our mission to demystify investing. Our goal is to help our customers achieve better long-term financial outcomes.
In 2024, we’ll be focusing on making our business cash flow profitable. We’ll also be radically improving our product for our core customer base. In the UK, we now have over 1.6 million registered users, and we offer a range of products such as the Freetrade Pension, a stocks and shares ISA, and UK Treasury bills.
We are seeking a Senior-Level Full-Stack Web Engineer who is keen to contribute to our mission and grow within our team.
Role Overview:
The Full-Stack Web Engineer will be responsible for developing Freetrade’s web application, with a focus on Next.js and Apollo GraphQL Federation API integration. This position suits candidates at the Entry to Mid Level who are prepared to contribute significantly at both the individual and team levels, engaging closely with engineering teams and business stakeholders.
Key Responsibilities
- Lead the technical direction for the team, making key decisions that align with both engineering and business strategies.

- Spearhead the design and implementation of long-term projects, focusing on architectural improvements, technical debt reduction, and enhancing engineering practices.
- Guide technical decisions affecting multiple teams, recommending frameworks, languages, and other large-scale technical choices.
- Work closely with business stakeholders to translate ambiguous requirements into detailed technical designs and feasible implementation strategies.
- Foster a collaborative environment across teams, identifying skill gaps and leading efforts to elevate engineering standards and knowledge within the team.
- Ensure comprehensive testing across multiple levels (unit, integration, etc.), learning from production issues to inform team learning and goals.
Development Opportunities & Benefits
- Lead initiatives that significantly impact engineering practices and project delivery across the company.
- Opportunity to shape the technical direction of a leading fintech platform, influencing both short-term project outcomes and long-term strategic goals.
- Continuous learning and development, both through formal policies and by mentoring others within the organisation.
