Job Description

11:FS is on a mission to change the fabric of financial services. Our Consulting & Research practice builds challenger propositions globally, like we did for Natwest with Mettle. Our Pulse team creates a benchmarking tool used by the likes of Monzo, Starling, Natwest and Tesco Bank. Our Foundry team are delivering a Financial Services Operating System to help businesses quickly add financial services to their offering. On top of all of that, we’re a media company, generating content that supports our brand and changes the conversation - not necessarily in that order.

To do this we need an amazing team so we have pulled together the best in financial services and beyond.

We truly live our values at 11:FS, and they are critical to your entire journey here. ‘Cultural Add’ is as, if not more, important as pure technical fit, and as part of your interview process we’ll deep dive in our values and your beliefs. Everyone at 11:FS fits our 4 core values: Team, Attitude, Communication and Impact, and this remains at the core of our growth.

We want to grow a team of multi-skilled engineers who are passionate about building products and services, and who pick the right technology for the job. Your focus will be on front end engineering, most likely on one of our client engagements. We believe in teams that are greater than the sum of their parts, and you’ll be working closely with product managers, designers and other experts in their fields. We’re believers in autonomous teams and iterative development. We’re crazy about continuous improvement and knowledge sharing, and we want people who share our enthusiasm. We know that building high performance, highly scalable, always available, fault tolerant systems is a team game and so we want to know that you play well with others. Lone geniuses are brilliant - just not for us.

What we are looking for:

  • We are looking for a React Native Engineer to work on multiple consulting and delivery projects.
  • Someone who has had experience in building high performance, highly scalable, fault tolerant systems in the capacity of an Architect or Engineer (not necessarily in finance!)
  • Someone who can point to successful software systems they have designed and/or built.
  • Someone who wants to work in consulting, and enjoys working with clients / creating solutions to clients’ problems.
  • A person with outstanding communication skills who can respond to customer needs and think on their feet.
  • Someone client-facing, with excellent written communication skills as well as technical design/documentation ability.
  • JavaScript experience
  • React Web and/or React Native

What you’ll be doing:

  • Working with technical and non-technical clients, often on site with them (so travel is part of the role at times)
  • Working with our group CTO and architecture teams to design solutions that align with our overall architectural principles (for example we are big fans of CQRS and Event Sourcing)
  • Working with the cross-functional delivery teams who will deliver what you’ve helped design

The FlexScore® is the result of a rigorous 2-step verification of a company’s flexibility

First we assess the flexibility options 11:FS provides and then we anonymously survey a statistically significant proportion of their employees to make sure 11:FS is as flexible as they say they are. Our assessment is based on the six key elements of flexibility: location, hours, autonomy, benefits, role modelling and work-life balance.

We ask the hard questions so you don’t have to.
