About the Team

Are you ready to take ownership and make your mark on the fastest growing digital banking project. Our Enterprise Engineering team is at the heart of building the digital bank of the future, and we're looking for talented engineers who want to do more than just write code. As a Fullstack Engineer within Enterprise Engineering, you will be part of a team building internal and enterprise-facing software tools that serve the bank's internal staff, partners, and clients. You will work alongside engineers, architects, and product builders in a collaborative environment where your contributions make a direct impact on the people and businesses that rely on our platform every day. If you're energised by solving complex problems across the full technology stack, from React frontends to NestJS and/or Spring Boot backends and excited by the possibilities that AI-assisted development brings to engineering, we want to hear from you.

AI Coding Tools

Leverage AI coding tools (e.g. ILMU, Claude, GitHub Copilot) for feature development, unit test generation, and code review assistance.

Apply critical engineering judgement to validate, refine, and take full ownership of AI-generated code before integration.

Testing & Quality

Achieve meaningful unit and integration test coverage across assigned frontend and backend components.

Participate actively in peer code reviews, providing and receiving constructive technical feedback.

Contribute to CI/CD quality gates by ensuring code passes automated test suites before merging.

System Integration

Integrate with internal and third-party services including payment gateways, identity providers, and core banking APIs.

Write and maintain integration tests to validate service contracts and end-to-end data flows.

CI/CD & DevOps

Manage own CI/CD pipeline contributions, configure build steps, run automated tests, and troubleshoot pipeline failures.

Follow Git branching strategies and raise well-structured pull requests with clear context and test evidence.

Collaboration

Work closely with product managers, QA engineers, and platform teams within Enterprise Engineering to clarify requirements and testing scope.

Participate in sprint planning, retrospectives, and backlog grooming sessions.

Support onboarding of junior engineers and contribute to knowledge-sharing across the team.
