Traditional business lending institutions still rely on highly paper-based processes. They are simply not tooled to be able to underwrite or service loans to startups. Lighter Capital is able to because our internal processes are supported by high-tech custom built software. This is where you will be adding value to Lighter Capital.

We are looking to add a Senior Software Engineer to our Tech and Data team. As a Senior Software Engineer you have experience building modern Reactive web applications on the Microsoft stack. Lighter Capital still has a “startup” feel but we are maturing quickly and you will be joining at the perfect time to make a massive impact.

WHY YOU’LL APPLY…..

• You yearn to work on projects that makes a difference and impacts the organization.
• You have approached “craftspersonship” level and want to work in an environment where that actually matters.
• You thrive in an environment where you self-manage your work, projects and time. Work:life balance isn’t just a platitude, at Lighter Capital we expect you to manage your hours and achieve your goals.
• You prefer small teams of people who are smart with a get er’ done attitude.
  

WHY WE NEED YOU…...

• You are a highly capable full-stack software engineer.
• You will bring to the team a wealth and breadth of experiences and be capable of lending that experience to the team when faced with complex and critical architectural choices.
• Our backlog is growing faster than we can tackle it. We need you to help us get it under control.
  

YOU WILL BE A GOOD FIT IF…..

• You are capable of independently planning, developing, launching and supporting a high-user critical multi-user web application from scratch (File/New Solution).
• You are a full-stack developer. Your proficiency lies more in the front-end than the backend. We will test you on your HTML/CSS/Javascript ability and expect you can teach us some tricks.
• You have solid commercial experience being in a team within an Agile environment.
• You are proficient with high scale relational database design, but also know where an object/document database makes more sense.
• You’ve spent enough time doing TDD that it’s affected your coding style. You love patterns and modularisation. In fact, if you were faced with a project that didn’t involve automated tests you would have serious reservations.
• Capable of making critical architectural choices in the advancement of a very complex web of interrelated web applications.
• Ability to say what you’ll do and then do what you say.
