Engineering Team Lead - Full Stack - 12 Month Contract

What is Flagstone? 

Flagstone is many things. An online savings platform, reinventing how individuals, businesses, and charities manage, protect, and grow their cash. A diverse group of people, bound by a collaborative spirit, and shared purpose. And lastly, a thriving, profitable business – where smart people do their best work.

Each definition shares a common thread: our unique culture. It’s our pride and joy. And our competitive advantage. 

A feel for our culture:

To revolutionise the savings market, we need to be at our best. But high performance takes more than talent – it takes a culture of kindness, respect, and growth.  

That’s why we’re building a diverse, inclusive community, where your voice is heard and valued. Where, with close support and room to develop, you can surpass even your own expectations. And be rewarded for it. 

Does this sound like you? 

You’re an Engineering Lead, ideally with 10 years’ experience, who’s excited to forge a new way to save. You’re excited about producing and maintaining high quality systems to achieve business objectives through contributions to the development process, including system design/architecture and performance management of the team. You work in partnership with relevant teams across an organisation to identify how technology can solve business challenges and will be capable of answering “how and why” technology is designed and delivered.
