Software Engineer, Full-Stack Applications (Python) – Ratings Technology

Location: Manchester

Fitch Ratings is seeking a Software Engineer to join our global Ratings Technology team in Manchester. You'll build and maintain mission-critical full-stack applications that power how a world-leading credit ratings agency delivers insights to analysts, executives, and decision-makers who shape global financial markets.

You'll work on Ratings workflow and analytical applications using modern technologies across the full stack—from backend services in Java and Python to frontend applications in React. This role offers the opportunity to work with cutting-edge cloud technologies, contribute to technical solutions, and grow your skills in a collaborative environment.

What We Offer:

Impactful work – Build applications used by analysts worldwide with direct visibility to your contributions

Modern technology stack – Work with Python, React, AWS, Kubernetes, and emerging AI technologies

Continuous learning – Training, certifications, conferences, and clear paths to senior/principal/architect tracks

Flexible environment – Work from our Manchester office with hybrid flexibility, competitive compensation, comprehensive benefits, and work-life balance

Innovation culture – Experiment with new technologies, contribute ideas, and help shape technical decisions

We'll Count on You To:

Develop and maintain full-stack applications – Build robust, scalable applications using Python (FastAPI/Flask), and ReactJS following best practices and design patterns

Contribute to the development lifecycle – Write clean, maintainable code, implement CI/CD pipelines with GitHub Actions, deploy to Kubernetes, and ensure quality through testing and code reviews

Work with diverse data technologies – Develop solutions using RDBMS (PostgreSQL, Oracle) and NoSQL (MongoDB) databases, optimize queries, and ensure data integrity

Collaborate across teams – Partner with product managers, analysts, and other engineers to understand requirements and deliver solutions that meet business needs

Apply engineering best practices – Follow SOLID principles and design patterns, participate in code reviews, solve technical challenges, and contribute to code quality

Support and improve systems – Troubleshoot production issues, optimize performance, and help ensure reliability of applications at scale

Stay current with technology – Learn and experiment with emerging technologies, share knowledge with the team, and contribute to continuous improvement

What You Need to Have:

Full-Stack Engineering Experience – 7+ years of hands-on experience building enterprise applications and modern web technologies in production environments

Software Engineering Fundamentals – Strong understanding of OOP concepts, design patterns, SOLID principles, algorithms, data structures, and ability to write clean, maintainable code

Backend Development – Proficiency in Python (Pandas, FastAPI, Flask) for building enterprise applications, data processing, and API development

Frontend Development – Experience with ReactJS, Node.js, TypeScript/JavaScript, and modern web development practices

Database Technologies – Hands-on experience with RDBMS databases (e.g., Oracle, PostgreSQL) and NoSQL databases (e.g., MongoDB)

DevOps & Cloud – Experience with CI/CD pipelines, GitHub Actions, Kubernetes (K8s), shell scripting (Bash) for automation, and AWS cloud platform

Effective communication and teamwork – Ability to collaborate with cross-functional teams and communicate technical concepts clearly

What Would Make You Stand Out:

AI and Machine Learning – Understanding of AI/ML concepts, experience with LLMs, prompt engineering, or integrating AI capabilities into applications

Data Technologies – Experience with Kafka, PySpark, Parquet and Avro data formats, Apache Airflow for workflow management, or Streamlit for building interactive data applications

Advanced Data Management – Strong SQL design, query optimization, and database architecture expertise

Observability – Experience with observability patterns and tools like Datadog, distributed tracing, monitoring, and logging best practices

DevOps and Infrastructure – Familiarity with ArgoCD for GitOps and Security/Access Management (IAM federation access via Entra ID)

Financial Services Background – Experience with analytical workflows, financial products, or regulatory processes
