## Description

## About Lendable

Lendable is on a mission to build the world's best technology to help people get credit and save money. We're building one of the world’s leading fintech companies and are off to a strong start:

- One of the UK’s most exciting unicorns with a team of over 800 people

- Among the fastest-growing tech companies in the UK

- Profitable since 2017

- Backed by top investors including Balderton Capital and Goldman Sachs

- Loved by customers with the best reviews in the market (4.9 across 10,000s of reviews on Trustpilot)

So far, we’ve rebuilt the Big Three consumer finance products from scratch: loans, credit cards and car finance. We get money into our customers’ hands in minutes instead of days.

We’re growing fast, and there’s a lot more to do: we’re going after the two biggest Western markets (UK and US) where trillions worth of financial products are held by big banks with dated systems and painful processes.

## Join us if you want to

- Take ownership: you are trusted to make decisions that drive a material impact on the direction and success of Lendable from day 1

- Work in small teams of exceptional people: Lendies are relentlessly resourceful. We challenge the status quo to solve problems and find smarter solutions

- Build the best technology in-house: we use new data sources, machine learning and AI to make machines do the heavy lifting

## About the Role

As a Senior Product Engineer, you'll be a key player in our engineering organisation, a vibrant community of talented engineers spanning backend, frontend, mobile, and platform disciplines. This isn't just about maintaining; it's about innovating. You'll dive into a wide range of exciting projects, from building and integrating new APIs that elevate the customer journey to optimising our cutting-edge lending platforms. You'll also engage in deep architectural discussions, shaping the future of our products. There's ample opportunity to grow, contribute, and truly make your mark.

## Our Modern Tech Stack

We believe in using the right tools for the job, and our stack reflects our commitment to modern, efficient development:

- Backend: PHP 8, Symfony, AWS, PostgreSQL, RabbitMQ, Docker, Kubernetes

- CI/CD: GitHub Actions and ArgoCD (we deploy to production as soon as a feature is complete!)

- Testing: Behat, PHPUnit for robust automated testing

## What We're Looking For

We're seeking passionate engineers who are excited to contribute and grow with us:

- Strong, business-oriented engineer with modern PHP development experience (PHP 8.0+ is a must). You’re fluent in the latest PHP features and best practices.

- A solid grasp of Symfony or Laravel.

- Experience with Domain Driven Design, CQRS, Message-Driven Systems, and Event Sourcing

- Familiarity with microservices architecture and working on financial systems is a bonus.

- Excellent automated testing skills (unit, integration, functional) - you believe in quality code.

- A genuine desire to learn, collaborate, and contribute your ideas within a highly collaborative team.

- High degree of ownership and autonomy

- Experience in a cross-functional environment is a plus, but not essential.
