Full-Stack Engineer

Salary

£60k-£90k

Company Description

• Privately funded UK property lender specializing in bridging and development finance.

Job Description

As the first engineering hire at Lakeshield, you will lead the development of two greenfield products: an internal loan management system and an investor portal. Working within a newly launched Innovation department, you will define the technical architecture, integrate complex CRM workflows, and build the digital backbone for a profitable, fast-growing finance business.

Location

London, UK

Why this role is remarkable

• Founding Engineering Impact: You are the first engineering hire, giving you total ownership over the technical roadmap and architecture rather than just closing tickets.
• Greenfield Development: Build two mission critical platforms from scratch, including an end-to-end loan management system and a high stakes investor portal.
• Stable & Profitable Environment: Join a privately funded, profitable firm with the agility of a startup but the financial security of an established lender.

What you will do

• Architect Core Systems: Design and build the internal loan management platform to connect HubSpot CRM with underwriting and loan monitoring workflows.
• Develop Investor Portal: Create a secure, high performance portal for managing fundraising, deal updates, and sensitive investor communications.
• Drive Technical Strategy: Make key technical decisions and work directly with the co founders to shape the company’s long term product function.

The ideal candidate

• Full Stack Proficiency: 1 5 years of experience building production grade applications with a focus on clean, maintainable code and system reliability.
• Ownership Mindset: A builder who thrives in small teams and wants to own products end to end rather than working to a fixed spec.
• Domain Interest: Experience in fintech, financial services, or complex CRM integrations (like HubSpot) is a significant advantage but not a requirement.
