## Description (the employer's text)

### About Lendable

Lendable is on a mission to build the world's best technology to help people get credit and save money. We're building one of the world’s leading fintech companies and are off to a strong start:

One of the UK’s most exciting unicorns with a team of over 800 people

Among the fastest-growing tech companies in the UK

Profitable since 2017

Backed by top investors including Balderton Capital and Goldman Sachs

Loved by customers with the best reviews in the market (4.9 across 10,000s of reviews on Trustpilot)

So far, we’ve rebuilt the Big Three consumer finance products from scratch: loans, credit cards and car finance. We get money into our customers’ hands in minutes instead of days.

We’re growing fast, and there’s a lot more to do: we’re going after the two biggest Western markets (UK and US) where trillions worth of financial products are held by big banks with dated systems and painful processes.

### Join us if you want to

Take ownership: you are trusted to make decisions that drive a material impact on the direction and success of Lendable from day 1

Work in small teams of exceptional people: Lendies are relentlessly resourceful. We challenge the status quo to solve problems and find smarter solutions

Build the best technology in-house: we use new data sources, machine learning and AI to make machines do the heavy lifting

### About the role

We'd love for you to become a key part of our Python Infrastructure team; a collaborative group that's always pushing the boundaries of what's possible.

In this role, you'll get to do it all: designing and integrating powerful new APIs that genuinely improve our customers' experience, optimising our lending platforms for performance and scale, and diving into the kind of deep architectural conversations that engineers get excited about.

No two days look the same here.

We're building something great, and we're looking for the right people to grow with us. If that sounds like you, we can't wait to hear from you.

### Our Tech Stack

Our stack is built on Python and FastAPI, deployed via Docker and Kubernetes on AWS, with ArgoCD handling our continuous delivery pipeline.

### What we’re looking for

Strong, modern Python development experience

A good understanding of a modern web framework - FastAPI

Strong automatic testing skills (unit, integration, functional)

A keen desire to want to learn and input into a highly collaborative team

If you’ve worked in a cross functional environment, it would be a plus but not needed

### Interview process

A quick phone call with one of the team

A short coding exercise to complete in your own time

Technical Video Interview for 60 mins

Meet the team you’ll work with daily

Culture interview for 30mins

Final Interview

### Life at Lendable

Winning team: the opportunity to scale up one of the world’s most successful fintech companies

Flexible working: flexible approach tailored to each role. Hybrid roles require three days in-office weekly; fully remote roles include regular opportunities for in-person connection through socials and off-sites

Socials & connection: opportunities and events to come together, socialise, and get to know each other beyond the office walls

Health coverage: support for your physical and mental wellbeing, including private health cover

Retirement & savings: long-term financial wellbeing through retirement savings plans

Employee referral programme: earn a competitive bonus when you refer successful new team members

Office meals & snacks: enjoy a fully stocked kitchen, plus complimentary lunches prepared by in-house chefs on in-office days at select locations

Sustainable commuting: cycle-to-work and electric vehicle salary sacrifice schemes available in select locations

Please note: The availability and details of specific benefits vary by location and role. For more information, please speak to your Talent Partner.
