ABOUT THE TEAM

Our Technology team is one of the best in the business and is the driving force behind Revolut’s platform. From building a new banking backend to creating an award-winning app, our tech team is at the heart of everything we do.

Working in Technology at Revolut is not about fixing legacy systems – it is about building world-class financial products from the ground up that will be used by millions. We’ve hired some of the most talented developers out there to help us do this – and we want you to join them.

ABOUT THE ROLE:

We are looking for passionate Python developers to join one of Revolut's core infrastructure teams.

We expect successful candidates to know Python at an intermediate level by which we mean:

  • Knowledge of functional and object oriented programming (Inheritance, abstraction, encapsulation)
  • Experience with at least one python web framework (flask or django, knowing both is a plus)
  • Experience interacting with Postgres from python
  • ORMs (Django ORM or SQLAlchemy).

It is an advantage to understand basic principles of concurrent programming (multiprocessing and multithreading) as well has having unit testing skills.

On the DevOps side, candidates will need to be familiar with:

  • Docker
  • Kubernetes
  • Experience packaging projects and automating the deployment process.

You will be working in an agile team working at the forefront of business strategy and scaling the organisation.

Even if you don't have all the skills listed above, we encourage you to apply if:

  • You enjoy connecting business logic to code
  • You are incredibly autonomous and can control your own tasking
  • You are comfortable in fast-evolving environments
  • You like getting things done and seeing your work have a positive impact from day 1.

A LITTLE ABOUT US

We believe that there are better ways for people to control their money. Easier, fairer ways.

Revolut started in 2015 with fee-free card transactions abroad. We’ve since added current accounts, business accounts, savings, insurance, and even cryptocurrency trading.

We reached 4 million customers in February 2019 and we’re adding another million every quarter.

And we’re only just getting started.

Come and help Revolut build the world’s first truly global bank.

WHAT WE ARE LOOKING FOR

From employee 1 to employee 1000, you will be slotting into a global team that shares a number of traits.

You can work autonomously and take ownership. We thrive with the space and responsibility to solve problems.

You operate best without lots of bureaucracy. We don’t hide behind fancy job titles or clunky processes ‘because that’s how things are done’.

You approach work in a logical way. We are not afraid to make mistakes but we use data and logic to backup decisions and improve understanding.

And you share our mission to improve people’s relationship with their money.

THE BENEFITS

  • Competitive salary
  • Biannual equity bonuses
  • All the latest tech you need
  • Skip the commute and work from home once a week
  • Roll with a free Revolut Metal subscription
  • Pension plan
  • Private health insurance
  • Don’t panic about cooking: get free dinners with Deliveroo
  • Start the day properly with fresh fruit and cereals
  • Stay refreshed: get juice, tea, coffee and soft drinks on tap
  • Rest up with 29 days’ holiday per year
