Description
Senior Software Engineer

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, stocks and shares ISA, and UK Treasury bills.

We run a cloud-first environment and make use of many Google Cloud Platform tools such as Firestore, Google Kubernetes Engine, PubSub and Cloud SQL to build a reliable and performant platform with services implemented using Typescript.
This is a high-visibility environment where you will make a direct positive impact on customer experience and the business. If you enjoy broadening your technical skills, building a new product, and working in an environment that thrives on creativity, experimentation, and innovation, then this is the job for you!
