Junior Ux Designer à Grande-Bretagne

Job Description

At Aberdeen, our ambition is to be the UK’s leading Wealth & Investments group.

Strengthening talent and culture is one of our strategic priorities. We strive to make Aberdeen a great place to work so that we can attract and retain the industry’s best talent.

Our people put our stakeholders at the heart of everything they do by helping us to make a positive difference to the lives of our clients, customers, colleagues, shareholders, and society.

We are focused on growing our direct and advised wealth platforms and repositioning our specialist asset management business to meet client demand. We are committed to providing excellent client service, supported by leading technology and talent.

Aberdeen comprises three businesses, interactive investor (ii), Investments, and Adviser, each of which focuses on meeting and adapting to our clients’ evolving needs:

• interactive investor, the UK’s second largest direct-to-consumer investment platform, enables individuals in the UK to plan, save, and invest in the way that works for them.

• Our Adviser business provides financial planning solutions and technology for UK financial advisers, enabling them to create value for their customers.

• Our Investments business is a specialist asset manager that focuses on areas where we have both strength and scale to capitalise on the key themes shaping the market, through either public markets or alternative asset classes.

About the Department

We have an exciting and rewarding opportunity in our Investment Analytics squad for a Front End Software Engineer to make a tangible impact on investment decision‑making capabilities and help shape the future or our technology platform.

As part of an Agile, cross‑functional team, you will help deliver high‑quality, maintainable, and scalable software solutions. This is a hands‑on engineering role that combines deep technical expertise with strong business engagement. You will work closely with investment professionals, analysts, and operations teams to understand their needs and deliver highly visible features supporting portfolio management, data analysis, and regulatory reporting.

You should be comfortable working in a regulated environment, balancing innovation with compliance, and be curious about how emerging technologies – including AI – can be applied to solve real‑world challenges in investment management.

While your primary focus will be on application development aligned to your core skillset, you will also have opportunities to work across a broader technology landscape and collaborate with engineers from other disciplines. You will be encouraged to explore new tools and approaches, and to contribute to the evolution of our technology platforms.

Key Responsibilities

• Design, develop, and maintain high‑quality software solutions across the entire technology stack, with a focus on maintainability.

• Participate in code reviews, pair programming and knowledge sharing.

• Explore and apply AI‑assisted development tools (e.g. GitHub Copilot) and automation to improve engineering efficiency and solution quality.

• Following Agile principles, ensure the continuous delivery of value to our users and drive the continuous improvement of our tools and processes.

• Experience delivering high‑quality, cloud native software solutions and an interest in Asset Management or Finance Technology

• Proficiency in at least one web application framework (Angular preferred), and Python

• Familiarity with REST APIs design, development and testing

• Some expertise in at least one Object‑Oriented programming language (C# preferred)

• Solid understanding ofgood software development principles

An inclusive way of working

Whatever way you like to work, if you have the talent and commitment to join our team, we’d like to hear from you.

At Aberdeen we’ve adopted a ‘blended working’ approach. This approach combines the benefits of face‑to‑face collaboration, coaching and connecting in our offices with the flexibility of working from home. It enables colleagues to find a balance that works for their roles, their teams, our clients and our business.

An inclusive culture, where diverse perspectives drive our actions, is at the core of who we are and what we do. If you need assistance with your application, or a reasonable adjustment to your interview arrangements – for example, because you are neurodivergent, or have a physical, sensory, cognitive, mental, visible or invisible disability – please let us know and we’ll be happy to help.

We’re committed to providing an inclusive workplace where all forms of difference are valued and which is free from any form of unfair or unlawful treatment. We define diversity in its broadest sense – this includes but is not limited to our diversity of educational and professional backgrounds, experience, cognitive and neurodiversity, age, gender, gender identity, sexual orientation, disability, religion or belief and ethnicity and geographical provenance. We support a culture that values meritocracy, fairness and transparency and welcomes enquiries from everyone. If you need assistance or an adjustment due to a disability please let us know as part of your application and we will assist.
