We’re building the best current account in the world, which means building the best banking app in the world. If you're here, you probably already knew that. If not, here are some things people wrote about us. We're looking for somebody to join our backend engineering team in London. The backend team is responsible for building our core banking system and the microservices platform it runs on. As a bank, we're responsible for people's money, so we're investing a lot of up-front effort in building a scalable, secure and extensible architecture. One of our engineers, Matt Heath, has given an excellent talk about this architecture that you can watch on youtube. 5 points posted by kenny
