Application Support Engineer

Codat is a fast-growing technology company headquartered in Clerkenwell, Central London. Our product is a universal API for small business financial data.

We build developer-friendly infrastructure that gives businesses the ability to create their own next-generation products without sacrificing time to market. We are well-funded with a large and growing number of enterprise and fintech clients.

We've most recently received a $10 million investment from Index Ventures, a leading global venture capital firm. We were also awarded a £5m grant from the RBS Capability and Innovation Fund last year to help power our growth with a focus on expansion into the US and a further £2.5m this year from the same fund to invest in the development of our product.

What you will be doing

Codat's Support Engineers provide first class support to our growing list of global clients. Our Support engineers should share Codat's passion for delivering an excellent product to our clients, and effectively helping them with any issues they have.

You'll be responsible for handling technical questions and requests for assistance via our support ticketing system. You'll be working closely with our Solutions and Commercial teams to ensure clients have the best possible experience when using Codat's technology.

We use technologies including Azure WebApps, WebJobs/Service Bus, Table Storage & SQLto run our product which is built in C# (.NET Core & Framework), ASP.NET and ReactJS. Any previous experience with these technologies would be an advantage, but it's not a requirement for anyone who is happy to do some on-the-job, self-driven learning.

Our values

No matter what we're doing - whether we're speaking to customers, partners or to each other - we live by our values.

We believe in delivering useful technology that solves real problems for real businesses. We are passionate about doing the stuff that isn't always "cool" but makes a big difference.

We believe that the people in the best teams push and enable each other to excel. We're united when we have each other's backs, hold each other to account, and support each other in learning - when something goes wrong, we don't blame, we work together to fix it. We embrace differences of opinion to end up with better outcomes. We don't let our egos win.

We believe that an unstoppable drive towards clearly stated goals is the best way to build great things. We are biased towards action - we make informed decisions, we share our ideas, and then we act. There is no such thing as an impossible problem, just a great challenge to sink our teeth into.
