Role

Who you are

You are passionate about making a positive difference in society by improving the financial health of our users. You align with our company values and engineering principles, which drive our ways of working and software delivery
As this is a SE3-SE4 position we’re looking for someone who has at least 4 years industry experience of using Ruby on Rails. If it’s not quite that much, maybe you want to look at our standard Backend role

What the job involves

Joining a cross-functional product squad and collaborating with a mix of engineers, designers, analysts and other disciplines to develop features that enhance our users' financial health
Collaborating with other senior peers in your squad and pillar to provide technical insight into upcoming work, and leading the delivery by helping pull everyone together to get it shipped
Mentoring colleagues to help them grow as engineers and actively supporting their development
Working on our Ruby on Rails monolith, building data models, APIs, and business logic services
Delivering your work using agile methodologies and tools like tests, observability, AB-tests, and feature flags
Analyzing data to identify problems and generate new ideas, using various sources such as our database, application logs, and user research data
Supporting colleagues through in-hours support and optionally joining the compensated out-of-hours on-call rotation
Contributing to cross-cutting concerns that improve our engineering efforts
Taking part in shaping the work of your squad beyond technical aspects, participating in product ideation, user research, design reviews, retrospectives, and more
Here are some examples, big and small, of the kinds of product feature work our engineers have taken part in over the last year:
Building a secured credit card
Launching new budget analysis features
Implementing pricing experiments for subscriptions

Our take

People are increasingly not satisfied with the products being offered by traditional banks, which have proven slow to react to the needs of younger consumers who expect more from their everyday experiences.

Cleo was one of the first companies to make great use of chatbots that sit within Facebook's messenger app. This chatbot-first approach and Gen Z user base have given it strong virality. It now has millions of registered users, 99% of which are based in the US, leading to a decision to take a year break from the UK market to focus on its US Gen Z customers. And after a successful year in the US its now eyeing up a return to the UK.

Its Series C funding will help the company to double down in the US, where it will make a significant increase in employee headcount, and enable Cleo to maintain and expand its service during an economic downturn.

Financial advice delivered via bots is a crowded space, so Cleo benefits from having a strong brand presence. It has gone for very bold, fun, Gen Z-focused messaging which helps it to stand out from competitors such as Emma, Plum, and Chip.
