Lead Engineer; Salesforce

Overview

We’re on a mission to back the UK’s small businesses like no one else. Small businesses are the backbone of the economy, and we’re here to help them win. We’ve built a platform that uses data to get them the funding they need in minutes, not weeks. At Funding Circle, we have the energy of a fintech start-up with the stability of a public company.

It’s a unique mix that gives Circlers the autonomy to take ownership and the scale to make an impact that truly counts. We’re a high-performing team that lifts each other up. We challenge, we champion, and we have each other’s backs, because when we stand together, we move faster and build better.

The impact is real: last year, the businesses on our platform generated £7.2bn for the UK economy.
