Position: Senior Front-End Developer,  Banking System
Company: DataArt
Category: JavaScript
Experience required: 2y
English level: intermediate

Our client is a British bank, one of the largest finance companies in the world. The bank was founded three centuries ago, and today its assets are estimated at trillions of US dollars.

Throughout its history, the bank has offered various banking products to clients. Its technical support has become more complex and expensive due to the expansion of its product line and the growth of its customer base. The development of technologies has led to a growth in customer expectations for banking apps as well as the automatization of bank account interactions. Therefore, it became clear that all the IT systems of our client needed an upgrade. Now they have been improved in accordance with modern technologies, and the user interfaces of the apps have been modernized as well; the DataArt team is now working on closer integration of the apps. An incredible amount of paperwork with which the specialists of the bank are engaged is going to be automated and transferred to electronic format.

DataArt's experts together with developers on the client's side are creating new banking apps and upgrading the old ones. In particular, there is a custom client portal project, which aggregates all user information and allows users to switch easily between the various banking products.

Working on this project will provide you an opportunity to participate in the technological modernization of a large financial institution, creating a product that will have millions of users, and obtain relevant experience in agile software development.

We hire people not for a project but for the company. If the project (or your work on it) is over you go to another project or to a paid “Idle”.
