Our purpose is to help established SMEs, one of the last major underserved opportunities in Fintech.\nEstablished SMEs are the backbone of local communities - representing over a third of our economy - yet have been largely neglected both by traditional high street banks and modern fintech providers.\nRole Description\nThe Senior Full Stack Engineer leads the technical design and delivery within a single squad and line-manages 1-2 Full Stack Engineers. The role exists to ensure the squad delivers secure, reliable, and accessible products, while maintaining high engineering standards and an excellent developer experience.\nYou will use your expertise in Spring Boot microservices (Kotlin/Java) and modern web technologies (React/TypeScript) to design and deliver complex features end-to-end. Our backend services run as containerised applications on Azure Container Apps, and our web applications are deployed via Azure Static Web Apps; you will ensure the squad’s services and applications are production-ready and effectively use these platforms.\nYou will drive best practices in observability, CI/CD, security, performance, and accessibility, ensuring systems meet the standards expected of a UK bank.\nYou will create and maintain Architecture Decision Records (ADRs) for significant decisions, aligning with organisation-wide patterns.\nYou are hands-on and collaborative: you design features, write code, review changes, mentor engineers in your squad, and work closely with Product and Design.\nYou model responsible, effective use of GenAI tools (e.g. GitHub Copilot) to improve productivity and quality.\nSuccess in this role is measured by the squad’s delivery of complex features, improvements in SLOs and operational metrics, the health of the codebase, and the growth and effectiveness of your squad.\nPrincipal Accountabilities\nLead the end-to-end design and delivery of complex features across the full stack using:\nBackend: Kotlin/Java Spring Boot microservices, containerised and deployed on Azure Container Apps, exposing REST/OpenAPI APIs and integrating with other services and data stores.\n\nFrontend: React/TypeScript, shared design system components, and agreed architectural patterns (e.g. Nx, micro frontends), deployed on Azure Static Web Apps.\n\nProduce clear Architecture Decision Records (ADRs) for significant technical decisions, documenting context, options, trade-offs, and outcomes that align with organisation-wide standards.\nOwn and improve SLOs and operational metrics for the squad’s services; monitor error budgets, participate in incident response, and drive improvements to reduce incidents and MTTR.\nChampion secure and compliant design:\nApply secure coding practices and threat modelling.\n\nEnsure logging, audit trails, and data handling meet regulatory and privacy requirements.\n\nEnsure accessibility standards are met in user-facing features.\n\nStrengthen observability and operational excellence within the squad (metrics, tracing, logs, dashboards, runbooks, alerts) and ensure they are used effectively.\nDrive improvements to the squad’s developer experience (CI/CD pipelines, test strategy, local development workflows, release practices) in line with wider engineering standards and cloud deployment patterns.\nModel responsible AI-assisted engineering:\nUse GitHub Copilot and other approved tools to improve speed, quality, and consistency.\n\nValidate and refine AI-generated code to ensure correctness, maintainability, and compliance.\n\nContribute to documentation and feedback loops on AI usage in partnership with Staff Engineers.\n\nProvide technical mentorship and line management for Full Stack Engineers in the squad, supporting their growth in technical skills, ownership, and delivery capability.\nCollaborate closely with Product Managers and Designers to ensure technical feasibility, shape solutions, and align technical work with product goals and timelines.\nMaintain high standards of code quality, testing, documentation, and maintainability across the squad’s codebase, actively reducing technical debt.\nPersonal Attributes & Experience\nStrong experience designing, building, and operating Spring Boot microservices in Kotlin or Java, including REST APIs, integrations, and containerised deployments on a major cloud platform (Azure preferred; AWS or Google Cloud also relevant).\n\nStrong knowledge of React and TypeScript, with practical experience building accessible, performant, and maintainable user interfaces.\n\nProven ability to design robust, scalable solutions within a squad context, aligning with broader architectural guidelines.\n\nGood understanding of distributed systems fundamentals (resilience, latency, consistency, failure modes) appropriate to microservices.\n\nStrong understanding of secure coding practices (e.g. OWASP), privacy considerations, and security/compliance expectations in production systems.\n\nExperience with observability tooling, incident response, and CI/CD pipelines; familiarity with Azure DevOps Pipelines and Azure deployment services is beneficial.\n\nDemonstrated ability to improve codebase quality through refactoring, better abstractions, and clear boundaries between modules and services.\n\nExperience mentoring engineers (pairing, code review, design guidance) and some experience of line management or formal coaching responsibilities.\n\nExperience using GenAI tools (such as GitHub Copilot) to improve productivity and code quality, with a clear understanding of their limitations and validation requirements.\n\nStrong communication and collaboration skills, able to work effectively with Product, Design, and other stakeholders to deliver outcomes.\n\nWorking at Allica Bank\nAt Allica Bank we want to ensure our employees have the right tools and environment in which to succeed in their role and in support of our customers.\nOur employees are at the heart of everything we do, so our benefits are designed with you in mind:\nFull onboarding support and continued development opportunities\n\nOptions for flexible working\n\nRegular social activities\n\nPension contributions\n\nDiscretionary bonus scheme\n\nPrivate health cover\n\nLife assurance\n\nFamily friendly policies including enhanced Maternity & Paternity leave\n\nDon’t tick every box?\nDon’t worry if you don’t have all the skills or requirements listed on the job description.
