Fully Remote (UK or Europe only)

Full-time, Permanent

£75,000 starting salary (generous raise expected after Year 1)

Eden Scott is recruiting a Full-Stack Engineer for Afternoon Finance. This is a fully-remote IC role for an experienced, confident, ambitious, & highly-talented engineer. Read on & get excited!

About Afternoon

Afternoon Finance is an embryonic SaaS startup bursting with energy, ambition, & an encapsulating vision to become the #1 platform used by financial advisors globally. This is not just a job, this is a chance to be part of something truly groundbreaking from the very beginning. At the core of it, Afternoon are looking to disrupt the financial advisory world by reinventing the way such firms work – creating their AI-first operating model for financial advisors.

The Afternoon team has been working for years developing unique expertise in Open Banking, data enrichment, fintech, AI/ML, data science, & UX. The founding team have proven expertise in this realm, as they are the people behind Nude Finance – the award-winning fintech app offering lifetime ISA products that was acquired by Tembo Money within 5 years of inception. This prior experience has already aided them in their short journey; helping them to over-achieve their initial goal in their first round of investment, with backing from industry experts.

What sets Afternoon apart is that they are automating data collection from any source into a single, up-to-date view that’s accurate & reliable. Automating & integrating each advisor process based on quality data, working in seconds and finding insights humans couldn’t keep up with – allowing specific AI modules for each task across data capture, turning 3 hours of work to 3 minutes.

The Opportunity

This role is a truly unique opportunity to become the 3rd software engineer within a well-funded, visionary startup doing ground-breaking greenfield work. You will be working closely with the CTO, building & maintaining everything that supports the Chief of AI’s work.

The position will be a full stack role – with both frontend & backend work. The successful candidate will be just as comfortable creating beautiful, slick front-ends as they are writing clean, robust, & scalable backend code.

Fantastic chance for a talented software engineer to future-proof their experience by collaborating on AI-driven projects & grow their AI knowledge, whilst still building high-quality, scalable, & performant software solutions.

The Tech Stack

• Backend: Design & implement features in Python backend backed by PostgreSQL, using FastAPI & pydantic heavily.
• Frontend: Develop, maintain, & optimize front-end apps using React, written in Typescript
• Infrastructure: Managing infrastructure on AWS using Terraform

The Person – what we’re looking for

• Senior / Lead / Principal Engineers (IC) will likely be the appropriate level.
• An engineer who is highly confident & competent across both front & back end development.
• Strong capability in React & similar modern front-ends.
• Python experience & associated frameworks (Django, Flask, FastAPI)
• Must have solid grasp of OOP principles
• Worked with testing frameworks (Jest, PyTest, Playwright, etc)
• Exposure across cloud services & relational databases
• A natural instinct to move fast & break things, learn what works, & iterate quickly.
• Someone who holds themselves to the highest standard, self-motivated & naturally proactive.
• Enthralled by the company vision & by the possibilities of what this technology could do for the future of financial advice.

Experience across the entire tech stack is not the be-all & end-all, but in an ideal world you would have experience across Python, React & Typescript in particular – as this will allow you to hit the ground running. Generally, the more experience you have across the tech stack the better.

Why this job?

• Solve complex problems through ground-breaking experimental work in live environments.
• Opportunity to grow your AI expertise & future proof your skillset.
• Autonomy & wide scope to deliver your own self-led projects.
• A fully remote role within a remote-first company.
• Company culture valuing innovation, collaboration, pushing technology to its limit, & rewarding the people who build the product handsomely.
• Direct access to leadership & company founders by working daily with CTO, Chief AI Officer, & an AI engineer.
