Software Engineer London, England
Job description
Company Overview
Third Bridge was founded on the belief that human insights drive intelligent investment decisions.
To make the right investment decisions, our clients require access to the most relevant experts and their insights – we enable this through private consultations and exclusive content drawn from expert interviews.
Our clients consist of some of the largest private equity funds, hedge funds, mutual funds and management consulting firms, who are serviced by a team of over 900 employees located across eight global offices.
Third Bridge operates in a global, multi-billion-dollar market with double-digit annual growth and has consistently received accolades for Great Places to Work and the top 100 fastest-growing companies.
Technology & Product Function Overview
We have recently merged our separate technology and business intelligence teams to form a Technology & Product (T&P) function, led by our first Chief Information Officer. We have invested heavily in our infrastructure and technology capability, enabling us to deliver innovative solutions and deep insight market intelligence to our clients. Through harnessing the latest tools and technology, we allow the business to work faster, more intelligently and we are uncovering more and more business opportunities as a result. We are also continuing to build a world-class product team which will help take Third Bridge to the next level, and beyond.
We aim to hire talented, creative and versatile people that help us grow and make our products better.
What will you do?
This is a great opportunity to be part of a team that is dedicated to getting it done! You will help minimise bureaucracy, with the pace of a startup within a scaling international business. As a Software Engineer at Third Bridge, you will support a wide range of projects and people. You will follow best practices and best in class standards, working with and learning from the wider team.
With a ‘bigger picture’ view, you will help to shape the design and build of solutions, in line with architectural strategy. You’ll work in an Agile environment with colleagues from different disciplines across our Tech and Product department. You’ll network with colleagues from across the whole of Third Bridge and the wider technical community, including external third parties.
Your ‘customer first’ ethos ensures the solutions you create make our business better at meeting the needs of our clients, specialists and internal users. With a devops approach you create solutions that are coded, tested and have the microservices elements to contribute to multiple products.
This is a great opportunity to put your own stamp on how things are done, aiming for simplicity in solution design. Third Bridge is in an exciting period of change and growth: we’re creating a brand new set of applications, so there’s always something new for you to learn and do, and have a real impact on our business.
What will you bring?
As a Software Engineer, you’ll bring balance of technical knowledge and human interaction, ensuring the solutions you design and deploy are in line with business needs.
You’re naturally curious, exploring all the options, and listening to others’ ideas and views. You really understand the power of testing and create your own unit tests to evaluate the solutions you code.
Your technical background as a senior engineer should include:
- Typescript
- REACT
- Node.js
- Cloud deployment
- QA - writing unit tests and test automation
- Any previous work with Terraform, WS, and exposure to other technologies with a ‘tech agnostic’ approach is an advantage to your application.
If you’re looking for a new role where you actually see your impact, work with a dynamic team, and create innovative solutions, then we want to hear from you!
