About Job

We are currently expanding and looking for product-oriented Senior Engineers (Fullstack) who have a passion for building products that provide seamless customer experience.

You will work to design, build, and support many of the core systems powering StashAway software and user experience, working either in our Financial Products domain (building new and maintaining existing investment products, working on product discovery and investor guidance flows, and building internal tooling for portfolio management), or our Onboarding and Account Lifecycle domain (driving conversion from sign-up to investor through a delightful onboarding experience, handling complex region-specific regulatory requirements for period account review, and building internal tooling for our customer experience and operations team to manage users).

Being part of StashAway's Engineering team, you will build end-to-end product features that you are confident deliver delightful user experiences. You will need to leverage the entire technology stack to realise these goals and will be part of a team that is constantly tackling difficult questions of scale, architecture, and interaction.

Your contribution to a dynamic Engineering team allows you to be exposed to a variety of concepts and technologies. You will enjoy being able to have a direct impact on StashAway's internationalisation plans, and the development of features and new investment products.
