Overview

At Plum
, we're on a mission to maximise wealth for all. We’re making saving money effortless and turning investing into something everyone can do.

Our journey began back in 2017, when we became one of the first to use artificial intelligence and automation to simplify personal finance. Fast forward to today, and we've already helped people save £2 billion across 10 European markets.

Named the UK's fastest-growing fintech in the Deloitte Technology Fast 50, our success is down to the passion and dedication of our diverse team. Based in our London, Athens and Nicosia offices, 170 talented people work together to empower people to do more with their money. And now, the team is growing!

The Role

We’re looking for a user-focused Senior Android Engineer to join our engineering team. You ll be building Plum on Android from its early days, giving our current and prospective customers a more intimate way to interact with their money.

We value good engineering principles, imagination, quirkiness and healthy curiosity. We take a conservative approach to using external frameworks and we aspire to write simple, well-tested code, delivered in rapid iterations.

Technical knowledge is critical but we are a startup treading in uncharted territory, so attitude is even more important.

Where others see problems, you see solutions.
