At Engine by Starling we are on a mission to find and work with leading banks all around the world who have the ambition to build rapid growth businesses on our technology.
Engine is Starling's software-as-a-service (SaaS) business, and is the technology that was built to power Starling. Engine was formed as a separate business in early 2024.
Starling has seen exceptional growth and success, largely due to how we built our own modern technology from the ground up. This SaaS technology platform is now available to banks and financial institutions all around the world, enabling them to benefit from the innovative digital features, and efficient back-office processes that has helped Starling achieve success.
We draw upon our experience as knowledgeable bankers, and best in class technologists, to become the chosen option for these banks and preferred partners for leading consultancies.
As a company, everyone is expected to roll up their sleeves to help deliver great outcomes for our clients. We are an engineering led company and we’re looking for someone who will be excited by the potential for Engine’s technology to transform banking in different markets around the world.
Hybrid Working
We have a hybrid approach to working at Engine - our preference is that you're located within a commutable distance of one of our offices so that we're able to interact and collaborate in person. We don't like to mandate how much you visit the office and work from home, that's to be agreed upon between you and your manager, but as a guide we would like to see you in an office at least once or twice per week.
About Engineering at Engine by Starling
Platform engineering is something we are passionate about. We pride ourselves on delivering software in a reliable, scalable, reusable and maintainable manner. Our platform is expanding and with that brings new challenges to how we deliver our SaaS. All engineers are responsible for owning features from inception, through deployment, to running in production. Using a first principles approach, we aim to break down problems and implement solutions across every stage of that lifecycle.
As an Engineer at Engine, you’ll be helping to build, scale and deploy our first in class cloud native banking platform to multiple cloud providers and regions globally. You will be encouraged to get involved in all areas of our platform. We value a multi-discipline approach to engineering and a culture that supports that. Some of the disciplines you will be exposed to include:
We do not expect you to have experience in all of the above - we’re looking for curious individuals who like to work across multiple disciplines and see this as an opportunity to grow and learn about other areas.
Engine by Starling engineers are excited about helping us deliver new features, regardless of what their primary tech stack may be. Hear from the team in our latest Blog or our case studies with Women in Tech.
Ideally you will be an inquisitive Infrastructure Engineer, with an aptitude for finding clean and simple solutions to technical problems. You will be passionate about building observable and reliable systems that impact the wider engineering organisation. The ideal candidate will have:
