Software Engineers at V7 ensure that complex operations involving AI – think applying foundation models like Gemini Pro to enable complex analyses across large financial documents - are performed reliably and efficiently at scale.

The Backend Engineer role holds significant influence, shaping the trajectory of the company's future in close collaboration with the Founders.

Some of the challenges you will tackle at V7 are:

• Enabling foundation models to be applied to multimodal data at scale.

• Helping to scale our platform to meet challenging multi tenant usage patterns.

• Build and ,maintain a rich suite of APIs to power all of our internal systems and customer-facing products.

• Shipping to production multiple times a day, working closely with Product and Design to solve customer problems.

Ideally you will have:

• Strong experience as a Backend Engineer working on a technical product.

• Experience working with databases (we use Postgres and Redis).

• Good system design skills.

We are hiring at all levels of our Engineering Progression framework in London.

It would also be great if you have:

• Experience with functional programming. Familiarity with Elixir is a plus, but other languages like Scala, GoLang, Node.js, Haskell, Clojure, and F# are also great.

• An understanding of queue management and observability.

• Experience with orchestration tools like Docker.
