SENIOR SOFTWARE ENGINEER Reporting to: Engineering Manager Location: London, UK Who we are and why we exist At Liberis - merchants matter most! We've been on a mission to provide small and medium businesses (SMEs) with accessible and responsive finance since 2007. SMEs account for most businesses worldwide and are critical contributors to job creation and global economic development. They represent about 90% of businesses and more than 50% of employment worldwide. Despite this, more than three quarters (77%) of SME businesses last year were unable to secure the traditional bank financing they desperately needed to grow and thrive. This has created a $5 trillion funding gap for SMEs globally. That's where Liberis steps in! To best help small businesses, Liberis has built the leading global embedded finance platform. Through this, Liberis provides partners with the technology and financial solutions necessary to offer personalised and accessible funding to their small business customers. To date with 20 global strategic partners and direct reach to more than 1 million small businesses, Liberis has provided $1 bn of funding in over 50,000 transactions, enabling more than 100,000 jobs to be created and saved. We are making a genuine difference to your local pub, hairdresser and online retailer! We are in a very exciting period of growth, in the UK and internationally, with teams based in London, Nottingham, Stockholm, Atlanta, Munich and remotely. We are looking for talented and ambitious individuals to help us reshape business finance.

Senior Software Engineer Who are we: We are the Engineering team. We exist to build the products and automation that will drive Liberis' exponential growth in the embedded finance market. There are 80 of us based around the UK, we split ourselves into domain aligned teams working on a specific part of our product offering: Merchant Experience, Partner Experience, Internal Tooling, Funding, Decisioning, Pricing, & Targeting; as well as across a few supporting functions: DevEx, Data, Architecture, & support. Our mission is to build composable, modular technology platforms that will close the global SME funding gap. We are collaborative (with each other, and with our users), and we value moving fast by fixing things. Who are you? You are an expert programmer, with multiple years of experience in environments like ours. You are comfortable working in the early stages of defining and solving business problems. You value collaboration and responding to change over negotiation and rigidly following a plan. You might be a specialist in one area of our tech stack (mostly C# .net, Node, React, Azure) but you're willing to learn and get stuck in anywhere. You know how to contribute to a high performing team. You always optimise for team performance over individual performance. Responsibilities Use continuous delivery practices to deliver high-quality software and value to end users as early as possible Work in collaborative, customer obsessed teams to build fantastic experiences for internal and external users Contribute to our distributed, global architecture while defending our quality and performance requirements.

What happens next? Think this sounds like the right next move for you? Or if you're not completely confident that you fit our exact criteria, apply anyway and we can arrange a call to see if the role is fit for you. Humility is a wonderful thing, and we are interested in hearing about what you can add to Liberis!

Job Introduction Are you a creative technical architect (or have the experience to become one)? Do you have an interest in creating world-class websites, apps, and games? Do you want to develop groundbreaking ideas, work with cutting-edge technology, and help the BBC make incredible online experiences? Do you want to work with a range of multi-disciplinary experts, including amazing development teams who focus on best-practice engineering? This is a role to be a Senior Technical Architect in the BBC's Digital Products team. You'll work on a range of BBC's online products. Initially, you will focus on the sites and apps specifically aimed at children. These include Bitesize (used by over 1 million users each week to help study and revise); and our collection of games apps that educate and inspire hundreds of thousands of children. The ideal candidate will be passionate about both new technology opportunities, and new ways in which we can make websites, apps, and other digital services to entertain, educate and inform. It's an opportunity to make a difference, through being inventive and creative, and working with amazing teams. In this role, you'll work with several product and development teams, and also with the BBC's architecture teams. As such you'll be influencing both the products you are directly responsible for, and the wider BBC Online. You'll need to think big-picture on the opportunities, whilst also getting into the technical details of creating products on AWS and other platforms. You'll help make our apps and websites even better. And you'll play a key role in shaping what new children's experiences could be made, so that they excite and delight users. The tech challenges you'll face in this role are tricky. You'll design and support the creation of many different solutions, for Games, Apps, Machine Learning and Server architectures. You'll be challenged regularly and will get to work on some exciting propositions. Colleagues and experts will support you at every step. And there's great opportunity to learn and grow, whilst keeping a good work-life balance. Technology Here are some of the technologies we use. If you apply for this role, we don't expect you to know all of these, as there will be opportunities to learn as you go. Most of our products & services are hosted on AWS. We use serverless technologies such as Lambda, storage technologies such as DynamoDB and S3, and many other services including API Gateway, Cloudfront, Kinesis and Athena. Our web tech stacks are predominantly based on Node.js, with a JavaScript/React.js web frontend. Our apps for children are mostly developed using the Capacitor .js framework and deployed to iOS and Android app stores. Our back-ends are mainly built using Node.js (JavaScript and TypeScript), normally as micro-services with Rest APIs and event-driven patterns. We build our games with a variety of canvas and WebGL based technologies including Pixi and Phaser . We use Python, Numpy, Scipy and AWS Lambda for our data science and machine learning algorithms. For more information on the technology used in this role, see . The day-to-day Culture: In this role, you'll work both with the architecture team and with the relevant product/engineering teams. Every day you'll collaborate with a wide range of high-calibre professionals, of all disciplines. We have an open and respectful culture where everyone's opinions are valued. Location: Until it's completely safe to do so, we're working 100% remote. After this time, we'll likely come to the office for some of the week for collaboration. The rest of the time, you'll be able to choose whether to work at home or office - wherever you work best. Most of the teams you'll work with are based in Salford; though some are also in London, Glasgow, and Cardiff. Our offices are great places to work - modern, bright, and well-equipped. Tech: You'll get a Mac laptop, access to great collaboration software (such as Slack and Zoom), and, of course, a range of other tools and software to help you do your job effectively. Growth: This is a flexible role, allowing you to shape it based on how you'd like to grow your skills and career. There are always plenty of opportunities to learn, take on new opportunities, attend conferences, and so much more. Role Responsibility Be a technology leader, in both in the BBC's digital architecture team, and in the Children's & Education product/engineering team. Develop the technology vision and strategy for your area, maintaining an awareness of the underlying business and technical strategic drivers and challenges faced by the BBC. Develop plans, designs and solutions that take a vision from idea to reality. Understand the technology landscape within the area that you support. Identify gaps, challenges and opportunities, and then use them to develop appropriate solutions. This will involve working with both internal teams and external suppliers. Work closely with colleagues and stakeholders from across multiple teams (including product, delivery, editorial, UX, engineering and architecture). Through collaboration, ensure everyone understands the requirements, strategy, and approach to deliver the best technology solution. Participate in the incubation of emerging technologies, architectures and approaches in order to understand the opportunities of creating new services, or using new technologies. Be able to represent the team in planning and governance meetings within your area(s) of work. Are you the right candidate? If you're the ideal candidate, you'll have experience being a software architect, either officially in a role, or as part of an engineering or similar role. You'll have created websites at scale, and/or mobile apps, and/or powerful backends (APIs, etc.) You may also have helped develop interactive experiences, games, or other products that are especially suitable for younger audiences. You'll be experienced in cloud technologies, such as AWS. And you'll know at least the fundamentals of Internet networking, databases, API design, microservices, security, and other standard technologies in a modern online SOA. Experience in machine learning, voice, or data science, is a bonus. You'll be great at working across multiple teams and with many stakeholders. This role does not involve line management, but a key element of the role is to work with and help more junior members of the team, as a technical expert. You'll be a strong communicator. This role involves a lot of collaboration with both technical and non-technical teams. You'll need to work closely with others on ideas and solutions, and on resolving technical challenges. Overall, you'll be passionate about working as a team on new technologies and opportunities, especially with regard to experiences for younger audiences.
