About Finova

Our agile, cloud-native solutions help over 60 banks, building societies, specialist lenders and equity release providers – plus a network of 2,400+ brokers – stay ahead of the market.

We offer a flexible, proven suite of software that covers the full customer journey – from mortgage and savings origination to servicing and CRM. Backed by an open architecture and a team with deep industry expertise, our platform is built to scale. Today, we process over £50 billion in loans each year, manage nearly £50 billion in savings, and support the digital servicing of more than 650,000 UK borrower accounts.

About The Role

Finova are hiring cloud‑first developers who thrive in a dynamic agile environment. Our teams pride themselves on collaborating to solve problems quickly and efficiently with our client’s needs in mind. You'll be used to reshaping on‑prem solutions to work on the cloud – taking the business knowledge built up over a number of years and utilising the latest techniques to make a next‑generation solution.

What will you be doing?

• Design, build, and maintain scalable B2B workflow solutions; our product at its heart is a complex workflow engine which powers our customers’ businesses.
• Lead and contribute to the development of cloud‑native solutions taking an API‑first approach.
• Work in a now / next / later environment, delivering predictable outputs.
• Flexible working required; must have the ability to work out of hours occasionally, on‑call work is sometimes required.

About You

• You enjoy working on automation and have the skills to make engines testable and maintainable.
• You are an expert in TypeScript / JavaScript and have experience in containerisation.
• Experience with .NET and Azure native is helpful but not essential.
• Understanding a high‑performance language such as GoLang and its practical application.
• You are already looking at Cursor, CoPilot, Warp or similar.
• Experience of at least one major cloud vendor and the pros and cons of using their dedicated tools.
• Our teams are cross‑functional and our technical leads need to work across boundaries to create and deliver solutions.
• Fast iterative approach to software with CI/CD and constant automation.
• Supportability and instrumentation: “We build it, we run it” mantra.
• Strong interpersonal skills with a collaborative and pragmatic mindset – bringing clarity, pace, and accountability to product delivery.
• Commitment to continuous learning, knowledge sharing, and coaching others.
• Focusing on improvement while recognising that “good enough” drives progress.
• Experience of DORA is helpful.

What We Offer

• Flexible Working: 25 days holiday plus bank holidays, bank holiday trading and holiday purchase options, the opportunity to work from anywhere in the world for up to 4 weeks per year, and a flexible hybrid working policy.
• Looking After You: Life Assurance, Group Income Protection, Private Medical Insurance, a pension scheme via Salary Exchange, an Employee Assistance Programme, and access to a Virtual GP.
• Family‑Friendly Policies: Enhanced maternity and paternity pay, as well as paid time off for fertility treatments and pregnancy loss.
• Extra Perks: Cycle to Work Scheme, discounts on shops, restaurants, and gym memberships, free fresh fruit daily, and opportunities to join colleague networks and social groups.
• Giving Back: One paid volunteering day annually and the Give‑As‑You‑Earn scheme to support your favourite charities.
