About Cleo

Most people come to Cleo to do work that matters. Every day, we empower people to build a life beyond their next paycheck, building a beloved AI that enables you to forge your own path toward financial well-being.

Backed by some of the most well-known investors in tech, we’ve reached over 7 million users and plan to double that number each year... which is where you come in.

What you'll be doing

  • Joining a cross-functional product squad and collaborating with a mix of engineers, designers, analysts and other disciplines to develop features that enhance our users' financial health.
  • Collaborating with other senior peers in your squad and pillar to provide technical insight into upcoming work, and leading the delivery by helping pull everyone together to get it shipped.
  • Mentoring colleagues to help them grow as engineers and actively supporting their development.
  • Working on our Ruby on Rails monolith, building data models, APIs, and business logic services.
  • Delivering your work using agile methodologies and tools like tests, observability, AB-tests, and feature flags.
  • Analyzing data to identify problems and generate new ideas, using various sources such as our database, application logs, and user research data.
  • Supporting colleagues through in-hours support and optionally joining the compensated out-of-hours on-call rotation.
  • Contributing to cross-cutting concerns that improve our engineering efforts.
  • Taking part in shaping the work of your squad beyond technical aspects, participating in product ideation, user research, design reviews, retrospectives, and more.

Here are some examples, big and small, of the kinds of product feature work our engineers have taken part in over the last year:
  • Building a secured credit card
  • Launching new budget analysis features
  • implementing pricing experiments for subscriptions

About you

You are passionate about making a positive difference in society by improving the financial health of our users. You align with our company values and engineering principles, which drive our ways of working and software delivery.

As this is a SE3-SE4 position as described in our public progression framework we’re looking for someone who has at least 4 years industry experience of using Ruby on Rails. If it’s not quite that much, maybe you want to look at our standard Backend role.

What do you get for all your hard work?

  • A competitive compensation package (base + equity). You can view our public progression framework and salary bandings here: https://cleo-ai.progressionapp.com/
  • Work at one of the fastest-growing tech startups, backed by top VC firms, Sofina, Balderton & EQT Ventures
  • A clear progression plan. We want you to keep growing. That means trying new things, leading others, challenging the status quo and owning your impact. Always with our complete support.
  • Flexibility: We can’t fight for the world’s financial health if we’re not healthy ourselves. We work with everyone to make sure they have the balance they need to do their best work.
  • Work where you work best. We’re a globally distributed team. If you live in London we have a hybrid approach, where we encourage you to spend one day a week or more in our beautiful office but this is fully flexible. If you’re based outside of London in the UK, we’ll encourage you to spend a couple of days with us in-person a few times per year - and we’ll cover your travel costs, naturally.

UK App access:

The Cleo app is no longer downloadable in the UK. If you’re an existing user, you’ll still have access to the app. But some features won’t be available. Why? 99% of our users are based in the US – where financial health is often overlooked. We’ve decided to shift our focus to where we can provide the most value and make the greatest impact for users who need it most. Then we’ll be able to apply what we learn to better support our UK users in the future.
