We’re on a mission to protect society from fraud and money laundering. We’ve already protected over 3 million people through life’s big transactions.
Fraud and regulation are rising, costing the UK economy over £100bn every year; this makes it more difficult for businesses to protect themselves and their clients - individuals like you and me - from fraud and money laundering.
Our co-founders Olly and Jack were led to this area when a friend was defrauded of £25K when buying their first property. At the time, anti-fraud technology didn’t exist, which meant that completing the anti-fraud checks required in these processes was largely manual. These big life moments should be exciting, but instead are often confusing and scary due to the painful process of completing these paper-based checks and the risk of fraud.
Thirdfort helps businesses to facilitate these anti fraud checks so that individuals know they can transact safely and seamlessly with professionals during these big transactions. Our anti-fraud platform provides a secure way for professionals in regulated sectors like Lawyers, Estate Agents and Accountants to transfer funds and verify sensitive information through app based document checks, facial recognition and open banking.
Over 1,500 businesses now trust Thirdfort to verify their clients. We are FCA regulated and have raised over $33m in capital from leading Fintech investors Breega and Element Ventures, as well as the founders of Zoopla, Funding Circle, Comply Advantage, Tessian, Fenergo and Fidel.
About the role:
We’re looking for a Lead Software Engineer to join one of our product teams and provide strong technical leadership.
This role is ideal for someone who enjoys solving complex problems, owning technical direction within a domain, and helping other engineers grow through mentorship and example. As one of the up to two Lead Engineers on each team, you’ll play a key role in shaping how we design, build, and evolve our systems, while working closely with Product, Design, and other engineering leaders.
You won’t be responsible for line management, but you will be expected to set direction, raise standards, and take ownership of the technical outcomes for your area.
About the Team:
Our engineering teams are remote-first, cross-functional product teams, made up of engineers with different specialisms working closely with Product Managers, Designers and stakeholders across the business.
We focus on delivering value iteratively while maintaining a high bar for quality, security and reliability. Our ways of working continue to evolve - blending elements of Scrum, Shape Up and continuous delivery and we expect senior engineers to actively influence and improve how we operate.
