About the role
We are a fast-growing fintech business transforming the way clients access and manage their investments. Our Operations team is central to ensuring seamless, efficient, and scalable client experiences. We are seeking an Operations Developer—a hands-on technical role embedded within Operations, focused on process automation, back-office tooling, and operational efficiency.
This is not a traditional engineering role. You will sit within the Operations department and work side-by-side with the team to:

Understand day-to-day operational workflows
Identify areas where manual processes can be automated or optimised
Build, maintain, and extend our existing back-office toolset
Develop dashboards, alerts, and data-driven insights to support proactive decision-making

You will focus on delivering high-impact, low-effort improvements that immediately reduce manual effort and operational risk, and you will define and deliver a strategic roadmap for back-office automation, including dashboarding, reporting, and tool enhancements that scale with the business.
Responsibilities

Work closely with Operations teams to analyse workflows, pain points, and manual processes
Automate repetitive tasks and manual checks using SQL, scripting, or integrations
Enhance and maintain the back-office system, building new features to support operational needs
Develop monitoring and alerting systems to enable more proactive operational management
Create dashboards (e.g. Tableau, Metabase) to give clear visibility of key operational metrics
Investigate operational bugs and issues, identifying root causes and delivering fixes or automation to prevent recurrence
Collaborate with technology teams when dependencies arise, ensuring solutions align with business priorities
Propose and drive a longer-term automation strategy, including AI/ML opportunities to further improve efficiency

Requirements
Essential

Strong SQL skills (data extraction, transformation, and automation)
Experience with Scala
Experience developing back-office or internal tools (full-stack capability ideal)
Proven ability to identify and deliver quick wins while building toward a long-term strategy
Experience building lightweight dashboards or visibility tools (e.g., Tableau, Metabase, or similar) to support operational decision-making
Familiarity with automation frameworks or scripting (Python, Node.js, etc.)
Problem-solving mindset, able to investigate root causes of operational issues
Ability to work directly with non-technical stakeholders and translate operational needs into technical solutions
Experience in fintech, financial services, or other regulated industries

Desirable

Knowledge of AI/ML applications for automation and data-driven decision-making
Understanding of alerting/monitoring systems

What We Are Looking For

An investigative/entrepreneurial and curious mindset, with the ability to understand complex operational processes
A hands-on builder who enjoys solving problems quickly, not just designing long-term solutions
Someone equally comfortable rolling up their sleeves to fix bugs as they are setting a strategy for future improvements
A communicator who can work across teams, bridging the gap between operations and technology

What We Offer

The chance to shape the automation strategy of a fast-growing fintech
Exposure to both technical and operational challenges, with autonomy to deliver impact
A supportive environment where experimentation and problem-solving are valued

The contract will be a 6-12 months as a freelancer.
