About the role

  • Software Engineer developing backend services for Trustpilot's fraud detection systems. Building scalable enforcement pipelines and maintaining internal tools in a hybrid work environment.

Responsibilities

  • Building and maintaining backend services that process high volumes of event-driven data for fraud and misuse detection (SNS, SQS, Lambda)
  • Integrating detection models produced by our Data Science team into scalable enforcement pipelines
  • Maintaining and improving internal React frontends used by our investigations team
  • Contributing to infrastructure decisions using Terraform and AWS CloudFormation
  • Participating in incident response, performance debugging, and database query optimisation (PostgreSQL, DynamoDB)

Requirements

  • shipped backend services to real users in a production environment — whether through employment or a demonstrable portfolio with genuine complexity and traffic.
  • experience with TypeScript/JavaScript and Node.js backend development — not just familiarity, but services you've owned end-to-end
  • Relational and non-relational databases (SQL concepts, query optimisation, understanding of when to use each)
  • Asynchronous, event-driven systems — you've worked with message queues or async processing patterns, and understand why they matter at scale
  • Cloud infrastructure (AWS preferred) — you've deployed and operated services, not just provisioned a free-tier bucket
  • React — enough to be productive on an internal tooling frontend

Benefits

  • A range of flexible working options to dedicate time to what matters to you
  • Competitive compensation package + bonus
  • 25 days holiday per year, increasing to 28 days after 2 years of employment
  • Two (paid) volunteering days a year to spend your time giving back to the causes that matter to you and your community

  • Full access to Headspace, a popular mindfulness app to promote positive mental health
  • Paid parental leave
  • Season ticket loan and a cycle-to-work scheme
  • Central office location complete with table tennis, a gaming corner, coffee bars and all the snacks and refreshments you can ask for
  • Regular opportunities to connect and get to know your fellow Trusties, including company-wide celebrations and events, ERG activities, and team socials.
  • Access to over 4,000 deals and discounts on things like travel, electronics, fashion, fitness, cinema discounts, and more.
  • Independent financial advice and free standard professional mortgage broker advice
  • Talent acceleration programs: Fast-track your career with our tailored development programs designed to support growth at whatever stage of your career
