API-first embedded investment platform and regulated custodian on AWS
Seccl provides API-first investment infrastructure for advisers, wealth managers and platforms, acting as a regulated custodian and ISA/SIPP provider. Its stack is heavily serverless and event-driven (AWS Lambda, SQS, EventBridge, API Gateway) with Fargate now being adopted, pointing to a shift toward containerised workloads. Senior-skewed, engineering-heavy hiring aligns with work on reliability, Datadog observability and a push into Europe.
