ABOUT FEROVINUM:

We’re revolutionising the supply chain and financial foundations of the $800bn global drinks industry by building a platform that will change the way that commerce is executed forever!
We’ve just secured our Series A funding and are proud to be part of Notion Capital’s portfolio. We’ve already influenced immense change in the UK markets and have personally already seen tremendous growth, with over £170 million of product transacted through the platform and increased annual sales by 1,000% since early 2023.
To date we’re proud to say that we’ve deployed over £114m of funding in support of UK wine and spirits producers. As we look to expand our offering globally we’re looking for ambitious builders that want to change an industry and be part of the journey with us.
We’re first to market and intend to stay ahead of the game! In short, it’s the perfect time to join as we aim for unicorn and beyond

TECHNICAL EXPERIENCE:

• Extensive backend development experience in complex domains.
• Fluency in 3 or more programming languages — you’re a polyglot who chooses tools pragmatically.
• Strong fundamentals in system design, software architecture, and data modelling.
• Deep experience working in complex domains — such as financial systems, logistics, or workflow-heavy platforms.
• Hands-on experience with relational databases (PostgreSQL preferred).
• Comfortable working in an event-driven, modular monolith environment.
• Experience with refactoring legacy systems and shaping technical direction.

BONUS EXPERIENCE:

• Familiarity with DDD, CQRS, BDD, or similar techniques.
• Background in finance, accounting, logistics, or regulated domains.
• Strong test automation experience, especially in CI/CD and end-to-end testing contexts.

ABOUT THE ROLE:

We’re looking for a Senior Backend Engineer to help us evolve our core business engine. This role is deeply hands-on and implementation-focused, with strong scope for architectural input. If you’re driven by complex domains, clean abstractions, and high-impact ownership, this is for you.
Behind the scenes, our systems model deep commercial logic, financial rules, and real-world operations at scale. We’re moving fast, redesigning our architecture for the next chapter, and hiring exceptional engineers to help us build the future of global trade in drinks.

WHAT YOU’LL DO:

• Own the design and implementation of backend systems driving business-critical workflows, financial calculations, and operational tooling.
• Model domain complexity using DDD and other architectural approaches across an event-driven modular monolith.
• Shape and evolve our architecture as we transition from Java to Node.js/TypeScript in a modern AWS-based environment.
• Work closely with product and operations to build features that serve both external users and internal teams.
• Play a key role in refactoring and rearchitecting complex codebases, balancing performance, readability, and testability.
• Contribute to and promote test automation and CI/CD pipelines, especially for regression coverage.
• Bring system-level thinking to design discussions with a team of senior/principal engineers.
