Contract Senior Java Developer

Contract Java Developer - High-Growth Fintech

Location: Leeds, Hybrid

Rate: £500 - £550 p/d OUTSIDE

Duration: 6 months

Fruition Group are working with an exciting fintech scale-up that's transforming the way people manage their savings. The company provides a digital platform that connects savers with a wide range of competitive cash savings products, while also powering the back-end for financial institutions like wealth managers, banks, and advisors.

They're FCA-regulated and already working with major enterprise clients-this isn't a start-up running on fumes. It's a well-funded, high-growth business with a strong technical foundation and real traction in the market.

Due to continued growth and increasing demand for their platform, they're now looking for multiple Senior Backend Engineers to join their small but highly capable engineering team.

The Role:

This isn't a typical feature-factory role. You'll be joining a business that values clean, scalable architecture, and where engineers are empowered to make decisions, shape technical direction, and build systems that solve real problems.

It's an ideal opportunity for someone who enjoys building backend services in a product-focused environment and wants to have a genuine impact as the platform scales.

Tech Snapshot:

Java (with Micronaut or Spring Boot)

PostgreSQL

Event-driven & service-oriented architecture

Infrastructure: Docker, Kubernetes

Cloud: AWS

Some frontend exposure (React) is useful but not essential

Modern DevOps practices and tools

Why It's a Great Opportunity:

• You'll be part of a mission-led company making a real difference to how people manage and grow their savings
• Early opportunity in a business with serious growth potential
• Hybrid working (3 days p/w in Leeds or London offices) with a strong and collaborative team culture
• Clear technical leadership, a modern stack, and freedom to innovate

If you're a senior Java engineer looking to join a genuinely exciting fintech at a key growth stage-and you want your work to matter-this could be the right move for you.
