Why Confluence?

At Confluence, we’ve always been driven by a commitment to innovation, precision, and partnership in the investment data space. Our global footprint now spans multiple countries, giving our employees the opportunity to get exposure to other countries and cultures. And it stands to reason that none of this would have been possible without the hundreds of hard-working employees who work at Confluence.

More about the role & team

We’re looking for a Senior Software Engineer to join Confluence and support a strategic, AI‑driven product with real customer usage. This is a senior individual contributor role focused on building and owning complex backend services, with Python as the core language, and playing a key role in bringing LLM‑powered functionality into production.

This position is highly hands‑on and ideal for an experienced engineer who enjoys solving complex technical problems, making architectural decisions, and setting a high bar for engineering quality.

• Take end‑to‑end ownership of complex backend services written in Python
• Design and build scalable, production‑ready systems with a focus on quality, performance, and maintainability
• Integrate LLMs into backend services and products using APIs
• Contribute to architectural decisions and engineering best practices
• Write and maintain automated tests across unit, integration, and API layers
• Collaborate closely with engineers, data scientists, and senior technical leaders within an agile Scrum team

What skills and experience do I need to succeed?

Required

- 5–8+ years of professional software engineering experience
- Deep, hands‑on Python experience in production environments
- Strong software engineering fundamentals, including system design, clean architecture, testing, and design patterns
- Exposure to AI / LLMs, including:
- Using LLMs in development workflows
- Integrating LLMs into backend services or products
- Strong sense of ownership and ability to work independently
- Excellent written and verbal communication skills

Nice to Have

- Background in fintech, financial services, reporting, or other data‑intensive systems
- Experience working in mixed technology stacks (Python alongside .NET and/or JavaScript)
- Familiarity with LLM evaluation, guardrails, latency optimization, and cost management
- Experience running Python services in Azure or other cloud platforms

Confluence offers the chance to work on a well‑funded, high‑impact AI product already used by real customers, with meaningful exposure to senior technical leadership, including the CTO. You’ll have real autonomy and ownership as a senior individual contributor, the ability to influence architecture and engineering standards, and the opportunity to collaborate with experienced engineers and data scientists on challenging, intellectually engaging work.
