Job description
Our technology and results are recognized as the best worldwide for fighting enterprise fraud and financial crime. With our scientific roots, we couldn't make that claim if it had not been statistically verified - over and over again.
Our achievements are due to our collaborative approach and ability to attract and retain the best customers, talent and investors. It's a rare achievement to bring a new technology to market, to achieve financial success and - most importantly of all - to make customers proud to be using technology developed to outsmart the perpetrators of real-time enterprise fraud and financial crime.

Day to Day:
- Working within a small team to design large-scale, real-time distributed architectures
- Delivering new features: from specification, through development, QA and into final deploy
- Providing input into future technology development
- Working with Data Science teams to ensure APIs are relevant and usable
- Supporting your code throughout its lifetime
- Building custom modules for client integration
- Experience of designing and developing scalable distributed applications in Java

- A genuine interest in the relevant technologies and their applications
- A perfectionist who pays attention to grammatical detail, layout and presentation
