Senior Backend Engineer

We are a fast-moving technology company, and one of the most successful providers of online reward and benefits solutions in the

world. We believe that everyone deserves an exceptional experience at work, every day, and build workplace technology that makes

this happen. Benifex’s mission is to build remarkable experiences that employees love. Today Benifex supports more than five

million employees in over 3,000 organisations across more than 100 countries. To help us on our quest to be the best, we need

brilliant people on board and that’s where you come in. 🚀

Join our Transformers team, responsible for the services that power the creation and delivery of customised reporting for

customers across our platform. Every day, customers rely on these services to turn complex data into meaningful insights without

needing technical expertise.

We're looking for an engineer with strong opinions on software design who can explain the reasoning behind their decisions. You'll

enjoy discussing architecture, working closely with stakeholders and helping shape how systems evolve, while remaining open to

challenge and new ideas.

Working in a small, collaborative team, you'll contribute across the full software lifecycle, from shaping product decisions and

architecture through to delivery, operation and continuous improvement. You'll work closely with fellow engineers, product

leadership and stakeholders, helping to build scalable, maintainable solutions that support an ever-growing volume of customer

reporting requirements.

We prefer visual communication when describing problems and solutions, and don't mind an analogue session by the whiteboard

together with our customers and managers. The idea is to have the developers, stakeholders and customers work in direct contact

with each other, without any middle layer. As developers, when faced with a new feature or something that requires more than one

pair of eyes, we prefer to do pair or mob programming. We've found that this is the most efficient way to communicate design and

ideas among team members. This does not mean that every day is pair or mob programming, but when there is a need for it, we don't

hesitate.

We actively use AI-assisted development but favour small, reviewable iterations over large generated changes. AI helps us move

faster, but engineering judgment remains essential.

Benifex understand the need to have a fast and efficient process, the below will all be completed in the shortest time possible,

typically a 2-2.5 week timeframe.
