Engineering Lead

London - Hybrid (2 days)

£115k–£120k + Bonus + Equity

I'm working with a high-growth fintech that's building the infrastructure powering the next generation of private markets.

They're looking for a hands-on Engineering Lead to lead a small team (4–5 engineers) while remaining close to the code.

Why this role stands out:

High ownership, low bureaucracy

Shape product direction, not just deliver tickets

Lead a small, high-calibre engineering team

Modern stack (TypeScript-first with growing Go adoption)

AI-native engineering culture

Real influence on architecture, product, and team growth

You'll thrive here if you:

✅ Enjoy leading engineers while still building

✅ Have strong backend/full-stack experience (Typescript highly preferable)

✅ Love partnering with Product to solve customer problems

✅ Get excited by startups, ownership, and moving fast

✅ Are already using AI to improve how you build software

A great opportunity for someone who wants the impact of an early-stage startup, without the usual early-stage risk!
