About us
Every day we look to tackle highly interesting and challenging problems that can help people better live their lives free from fraud, corruption, money laundering and terrorist financing. We have developed modern, web-based applications that allow our growing list of international clients to detect, and ultimately prevent, illegal financial activities. We reduce crime and criminal activity through the creative use of technology & design and disrupt the compliance industry while doing so.
After securing our Series B investment round of $30 mln led by Index Ventures and tripling our revenue year-on-year, we’re growing fast and are looking for the best people to join us.
Our culture
Fresh Thinkers - We’re big thinking, boundary breakers, providing innovative solutions not corporate fixes.
Problem Solvers - We’re constantly curious and instinctively clever, always striving to be faster and better.
People People - We’re the human side of risk and compliance, we care about the people behind the screens.
We are looking for a talented Senior Software Engineer to help us build our SaaS-based anti-money laundering solutions. We are building solutions that help reveal the truth for a safer world and stop money ending up in the hands of terrorists.
How? By bringing together smart technology, data and people into a single solution. We are building tools that fight financial crime today to prevent a riskier tomorrow.
The role
We are looking for an expert engineer to join our AML Screening and Monitoring team. You’ll have experience developing systems at scale and handling large volumes of data.
- Responsible for working with the engineering and product teams to design, implement and support features and components for our screening platform.
- Responsible in developing various REST framework services handling large volumes of data

- You will work with databases at scale and provide solutions as appropriate
- Effectively communicate the relevant updates and queries with other stakeholders (designers, delivery and product team and other development teams)
- Understand, extend and modify complex logic with many technical dependencies and consequences
- You will be a strong believer in DevOps and are comfortable with getting into the details of infrastructure and deployment
- You will own your code - you build it, you ship it, you run it - and you will be a champion of this throughout the team or teams you work with
- Provide leadership, coaching and mentoring to more junior engineers and help them to become as good as you are
What does success look like after 6 months?
