Developer - Marketing Technology & Automation

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 clever data to get them the funding they need in minutes, not weeks.

At Funding Circle, we have the restless 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 chooses to lift each other up. We challenge, we champion, and we have each other’s backs - because we know that when we stand together, we move faster and build better.

The impact is real: Last year alone, the businesses on our platform generated £7.2bn for the UK economy 📈 Come and join a mission that matters!

The role ⚡

📍 London (Hybrid) | 🤝 3 days in the office | 💰 Competitive Salary + Benefits

You’ll make a real difference for our customers and your team from day one. We believe the fastest way to grow is by doing, so we give you the ownership to run with things and see real-time results.

Joining our newly expanded Marketing Technology & Automation team, you will develop integrations and automated data pipelines between marketing platforms, internal business systems and data products - unlocking new capabilities for the CRM Team and wider Marketing department, while modernising or replacing legacy processes.

This is a new role in a team with a broad and transformational remit - you will be key in shaping it. You will be breaking ground to enable cutting-edge features of marketing tools and embed their use in core operations.

• Integration design - build and maintain scalable data pipelines between marketing technology tools, and both internal and external data sources

• Technical governance - monitor and own the health of our engineered solutions. Identify and mitigate risks, issues or control weaknesses, create accessible documentation, and support views of data and system reliability.

• Act as a technical expert and pair with product engineering leads - co-working on solutions and steering solution design using your marketing domain expertise

• Work closely with non-technical stakeholders in Marketing to plan and deliver new end-to-end operational processes

• Play a key role in re-engineering and migrating legacy data processes to modern, more efficient solutions

• Steering long-term transformation and change through a new suite of marketing platforms, data products, and operating model for the department

What we’re looking for 🌱

We value deep expertise, but a growth mindset and good energy are what really make our team click. We’re a group that chooses to lift each other up and think smart every day.

• Experience working on data integrations in frontend and backend contexts, and familiarity with common concepts (authentication, pagination, retries, JSON parsing)

• Experience with Python (backend), Javascript/React (frontend)

• Familiarity with event-driven data architectures, Kafka, or other realtime data processes

• Excellent stakeholder communication skills, comfort collaborating with both technical and non-technical stakeholders

• Enthusiasm for multi-disciplinary problem-solving - you enjoy working with evolving technologies and bridging domains of expertise

• Passion for continuous improvement and change - you are thoughtful about how your day-to-day work can solve immediate needs while advancing tech and data maturity

• Existing familiarity with AWS (S3, Athena) or SQL is not essential but a strong nice-to-have

We’re building a place where everyone truly feels they belong. Even if your past experience doesn't align perfectly with every requirement, we'd still love to hear from you.
