Job Description:

PlannerPal is the AI assistant built for financial advisers. We’re a UK-based, VC-backed wealthtech start-up on a mission to reshape wealth management with AI-driven tools that save time, reduce admin, and help advisers and their teams focus on their clients.

Our product is already used by hundreds of advisory firms and growing fast.

We’re looking for a mid-level full-stack developer to help us build intuitive, powerful tools for financial advisers - everything from meeting transcription and document generation to CRM updates and AI-powered workflows.

As an early member of the engineering team, you’ll be hands-on with everything from product development to architectural decisions. You’ll work closely with the founding team, contribute to the roadmap, and have a direct impact on the future of the company.

Tasks

• Design and build the front end and orchestration layer of generative AI products for the IFA and wealth management industry. We use Vue/Nuxt.js on the front end, and Node/Sails.js in our orchestration layer, and MongoDB as our main database
• Collaborate closely with the rest of the PlannerPal engineering team - specifically our UK-based AI engineering team and our offshore development team
• Collaborate closely with the firm’s founders on shaping the product roadmap

Requirements

• Degree in Computer Science or related Developer Education (e.g. a reputable coding bootcamp)
• Has experience of working with both MongoDB and AWS hosting and backend services (e.g. Cognito, S3, SES)
• Has experience of designing, building and maintaining automated continuous integration tests
• Has experience of working with other developers in an agile set-up
• Has experience of debugging and fixing live incidents in a time-pressured situation
• Ideally has experience of building both front end code that matches precisely what’s in a Figma design and improvising based on the user story and a site’s design language
• Has a strong understanding of industry trends and development best practices - especially regarding security and application performance
• Has a strong sense of ownership, attention to detail and the ability to work independently with a team-oriented work ethic
• Has strong communication skills for effective teamwork and collaboration
• Is proactive, initiates, and offers assistance even without being asked
• Competitive salary + pension+ employee share options
• Remote-first work environment (UK-based team) with a collaborative team culture
• Regular team meet-ups to foster team synergy and alignment
• An open, transparent work environment where your voice is valued and your contributions directly shape the company’s trajectory

You won’t just be writing code - you’ll be helping reinvent how financial advisers help their clients. You’ll be joining a tight-knit, ambitious team at a moment of rapid growth, with the opportunity to grow your role as we scale.
