NewDay are building a next generation Consumer Lending Platform and, to enable this, we need to dramatically accelerate and simplify our application and infrastructure deployment.

We want the creation of an entire version of our platform to take hours - and deploy software updates across multiple customer instances quickly and without impact. To achieve this transformational improvement, we're building a Developer Experience Platform, with custom tooling on top of the best open-source software, and we're hiring a Senior Engineer to help drive this forward.

NewDay aim to build the best Consumer Lending Platform in the UK, and we need a world class engineering team to enable and deliver that platform. We like to use the latest technologies, and need engineers who are comfortable stretching themselves, truly understanding new products and services, and integrating them into our platform.

Our software has a huge userbase and our platform is used by millions of customers.

What You'll Deliver:

• Roll out of our new platform across the development community
• Dramatic improvements to our Developer Experience platform - features, quality and process.
• A senior role in the Developer Experience team, fostering a high-performance culture, mentoring and supporting team members.

What You'll Bring:

• Live and breathe TypeScript, Node.js, and JavaScript
• Love crafting high-quality developer tooling in TypeScript
• Are passionate about delivering an exceptional developer experience
• Believe software testing is a superpower, not a chore
• Have hands-on experience with public cloud services
