Job Description

OakNorth is a profitable business that has supported the growth of thousands of entrepreneurs with a new standard of business lending.

Were looking for a Senior Fullstack Engineer to join our engineering team in building upon this success as we grow to play a key part in redefining the future of business banking with next generation financial tools and products.

The role

    • Have a strong technical background including 5 years of experience designing and engineering large scale systems
    • Measure your success in terms of business impact not lines of code
    • Internalise the best ideas from across the organisation humbly setting a vision that others can get behind
    • Embrace DevOps culture: You build it you run it
    • Work well crossfunctionally and earn trust from coworkers at all levels
    • Care deeply about mentorship and growing your colleagues
    • Prefer simple solutions and designs over complex ones
    • Enjoy working with a diverse group of people with different areas of expertise.
    • You challenge the existing approach when you see the cliff edge racing towards us but also get on board once the options have been debated and the team has made a decision
    • Youre comfortably organised amongst chaos
    • Youre a broad thinker and have the capability to see the potential impact of decisions across the wider business
    • Utilise GenerativeAI: Leverage GenAI tools to increase productivity and enhance decision making processes within the role

Technology

    • Were pragmatic about our technology choices. These are some of the things we use at the moment:
    • Python
    • PostgreSQL BigQuery MySQL
    • TypeScript React styledcomponents
    • Jest React Testing Library Cypress pytest
    • AWS GCP
    • ECS Fargate Docker Terraform GitHub Actions

How we expect you to work

    • We expect you to work in these ways as well as encouraging and enabling these practices from others:
    • Collaborate We work in crossfunctional mission driven autonomous squads that gel over time. We pair program to work better through shared experience and knowledge.
    • Focus on outcomes over outputs Solving a problem for users that translates to business results is our goal. Measurements focused on that goal help us to understand if we are succeeding.
    • Practice continuous improvement We optimise for feedback now rather than presume what might be needed in the future and introduce complexity before it will be used. This means we learn faster. We share learnings in blamefree formats so that we do not repeat things that have failed but still have confidence to innovate.
    • Seek to understand our users We constantly seek understanding from data and conversations to better serve our users needs taking an active part in research to hear from them directly and regularly.
    • Embrace and enable continuous deployment Seamless delivery of changes into an environment without manual intervention is essential for us to ensure that we are highly productive; consider resiliency; and practice security by design.
    • Test outsidein test first TDD keeps us confident in moving fast and deploying regularly. We want to solve user problems and so we test with that mindset writing scenarios first then considering our solution; coupling tests to behaviour rather than implementation.
    • You build it you run it We embrace DevOps culture and endtoend ownership of products and features. Every engineer regardless of their role has the opportunity to lead delivery of features from start to finish.
    • Be cloud native We leverage automation and hosted services to deliver resilient secure services quickly and consistently. Where SaaS tools help us achieve more productivity and better quality results for a cheap price we use these to automate low value tasks.

How we expect you to behave

    • We embrace difference and know that when we can be ourselves at work we are happier more motivated and creative. We want to be able to bring our whole selves to work have our own perspectives and know that we belong. As such through your behaviours at work we expect you to reflect and actively sustain a healthy engineering environment that looks like this:
    • A wide range of voices heard to the benefit of all
    • Teams that are clearly happy engaged and laugh together
    • Perceivable safety to have an opinion or ask a question
    • No egos people listen to and learn from others at all levels with strong opinions held loosely

What makes working here better

    • This role offers the opportunity to work closely with the team requiring a minimum of 3 days per week in the office to foster handson collaboration and innovation.
    • Worklife balance 25 days holiday (plus bank holidays) each year and enhanced family leave allowances.
    • Competitive salary & equity We want people to have a serious stake in the business.
    • Good kit Your choice of the best laptop running macOS or Ubuntu.
    • Team socials The opportunity to get to know each other outside of work.
    • Company socials A chance to catch up and meet new colleagues weekly over informal office breakfasts and dinners on OakNorth or at our free barista bar every day.
    • Commuter support We offer the cycle to work scheme.

Our story
OakNorth Bank was built on the foundations of frustrations with oldschool banking. In 2005 when our founders tried to get capital for their data analytics company the computer said no. Unfortunately all major banks in the UK were using the same computer and it was broken.
Why was it so difficult for a profitable business with impressive cashflow retained clients and clear commercial success to get a loan
The industry was backwardlooking and too focused on historic financials rather than future potential.
So what if there was a bank founded by entrepreneurs for entrepreneurs One that offered a dramatically better borrowing experience for businesses
No more what ifs OakNorth Bank exists.
