Financial services transformation via data platforms and workflow automation
NextWave is a London-based consulting firm serving financial institutions through strategy and technology transformation. The tech stack reveals a dual engineering focus: Java/Spring microservices with Kafka/RabbitMQ on cloud platforms (AWS, Azure, GCP) for data work, paired with Camunda-based workflow orchestration (Zeebe, BPMN 2.0) for process automation. Active hiring is heavily skewed toward engineering (9 of 14 roles), mostly senior level, suggesting they're scaling internal delivery teams rather than pure advisory capacity—a shift toward managed services or platform-led engagement models.
