Python Developer

Ncounter is supporting an ambitious investment firm as they continue to grow their in-house engineering capability. They're looking for a Software Engineer with exceptional Python development skills to become the first dedicated engineer within a newly established team, working directly with an experienced technical leader to build the next generation of internal compliance applications.

This is a software engineering role first and foremost. While you'll be working on applications that support compliance and surveillance teams, the focus is on building high-quality software rather than data engineering or AI development. You'll take ownership of developing a modern internal dashboard used by business stakeholders, creating new features, improving usability, and delivering software that has a direct impact across the organisation.

We're looking for someone with:

• An understanding of user-focused application development and translating business requirements into intuitive interfaces
• Experience working on internal business applications, financial platforms, or operational tooling would be advantageous
• Exposure to financial dashboards, compliance systems, or regulated environments would be beneficial, but isn't essential
• Strong communication skills and the confidence to work closely with stakeholders across both technology and the business

This role offers the opportunity to explore AI-powered features in the future, but previous AI, LLM or data engineering experience is not a requirement. The priority is finding an outstanding software engineer with strong Python fundamentals and enough front-end expertise to build polished, user-friendly applications.

If you're looking for a role where you can take ownership from day one, influence product direction, and build software that is used across the business, we'd love to hear from you.
