Cleo AI

Cleo AI is hiring a Remote Software Engineer Frontend

Looking to do work that matters?

We get it – It’s why most people come to Cleo. Together we’re fighting for the world’s financial health, building an AI that helps our users make the best money decisions from day one. We’ve helped 4 million people so far with personalised insights and a voice you don’t expect in FinTech. But it’s time to do more.

As we enter the next phase, we’re looking for more improvisers, data geeks and grown ups who want to own their work and create meaningful change.

We’re looking for a brilliant Frontend React/React Native Engineer with an eye for UI/UX design to join us on our mission to fight for the world's financial health. You’ll be joining a team of adaptable, creative and product-focused engineers who ship working software. We understand our customers, we understand their pain, and we are passionate about helping them.

We're currently hiring for a Senior Frontend Engineer to lead our new Chat Squad. Chat is where Cleo started, and where we see the future. Chat is how we communicate information to our users, breaking down complex financial information into easy, delightful, actionable information. This will be our first squad dedicated to looking at how chat works, the nuts and bolts of the tech and the design around it. Historically, we were inside Facebook messenger, and so a lot of our design decisions and tech works based on that Facebook tech stack. With the app, we can move beyond this, pushing the boundaries of how we deliver information to our users.

Life as an Engineer at Cleo

  • We don’t deliberate exhaustively over all the what-ifs. We focus on being effective. We make small changes and test them quickly.
  • We think the deliberate, conscious and careful accumulation of tech debt is a powerful tool that lets us ship code and value to our users faster.
  • We write code to be read, debugged and maintained by humans.
  • We help each other. We learn the best and quickest by reviewing each others’ code and giving each other useful, constructive feedback.

What we’re looking for

  • We’re looking for someone who wants to make a positive difference in society by improving the financial health of over 3 million users worldwide.
  • We are acutely aware of the position of many of our customers and our role in trying to help and serve them. This means you take the initiative. You are a passionate doer. You own our problems and are always learning.
  • You join us in our belief that we don’t know everything and empower our colleagues to make progress. Anyone at Cleo can have an idea and we’ll support them to test it.
  • We are trying to be the change we want to see in the world. You purposefully give energy to those around you and inspire confidence. You create an environment that’s inclusive and empowers others to do their best work. You respect your colleagues and our customers.
