Join our expanding engineering team!
We're hiring 2x permanent Senior Backend Engineers II & III to join our Asset Sales group as we scale one of the most important parts of M-KOPA's FinTech platform. Build distributed, event-driven microservices and help shape what AI-native engineering looks like at M-KOPA.
What You'll Do
Technical Environment
Modern C# stack: Distributed C# and .NET microservices
Cloud & orchestration: Hosted on Azure using Kubernetes
Architecture: Event-driven, supporting products used at significant scale
Observability: Grafana, Azure Application Insights, logs, traces, and metrics
AI tooling: Claude and other AI tools used throughout the engineering workflow — design exploration, code generation and review, test writing, incident investigation, and technical communication
Our Engineering Approach
AI-native engineering: We want engineers who tinker — experimenting with new tools, agents, and workflows, and sharing what works
Guardrails as we accelerate: Automated tests, SLOs, alerting, observability, and deployment safeguards around everything we ship
Own it beyond the pull request: Design for idempotency, retries, out-of-order events, and failure modes, and know how your services behave in production
The Campfire Rule: Leave the systems you touch a little better than you found them
On-call as feedback, not heroics: Engineers who build our systems also help operate them, using incidents to make the platform more resilient
What You Need
We're looking for a senior engineer who's curious, autonomous, and highly trusted. You're comfortable owning the entire software stack — including supporting infrastructure — throughout its lifecycle, and you see production data, not just deployment, as the real measure of "done."
Required Experience:
Strong grasp of C# and .NET development
Experience with event-driven systems - We use Azure Service Bus, but would love to hear from you if you have experience with similar messaging technology (Kafka, RabbitMQ, etc.)
Microservices architecture experience, ideally on Azure and Kubernetes
Experience using observability tooling (e.g. Grafana, Application Insights) to understand production behaviour
Comfort using AI tools as part of a daily engineering workflow (design, code review, testing, incident investigation)
DevOps culture mindset, including on-call/production ownership
Proven ability to collaborate effectively in distributed teams across time zones
Continuous learning mindset and openness to feedback
Location & Benefits
Fully remote role, collaborating during core GMT working hours
Benefits package, which includes Bonus, Growth Shares & On-Call Allowance
Work with diverse teams distributed across UK, Europe, and Africa
Personalised training budget to support your development
Home office setup budget
Professional development programs and coaching partnerships
Family-friendly policies and flexible working arrangements
Well-being support and career growth opportunities
