Requirements
• You'll likely have: • Strong commercial experience designing and building systems across the full stack in production • Deep experience with TypeScript, Node.js, SQL, and relational databases • Solid experience with React or similar frontend frameworks • Experience with cloud infrastructure, ideally AWS and serverless architectures • A track record leading the delivery of complex technical projects and bringing others along with you • A thoughtful approach to system design, making pragmatic choices that balance quality with pace • The ability to communicate well and work effectively across different disciplines • It'd be great if you have, but it's not essential: • Experience building or scaling SaaS products • Familiarity with event-driven architectures • A background working with integration-heavy platforms • An interest in security best practices • We're more interested in how you approach problems than how long you've been doing it.
Responsibilities
• Technical Leadership • You'll play a key role in shaping how we build things. That means owning architectural decisions, identifying the right trade-offs between speed and sustainability, and making sure our systems are reliable and performant. You'll contribute to our product roadmap from a technical perspective and help the team navigate complex dependencies and risks. • This isn't a role where you stop writing code. You'll be hands-on daily, delivering high-quality solutions across the stack, improving our development workflows, and tackling the harder problems that come with a growing platform. • Growing the Team • You'll mentor engineers across the team, helping them develop their skills and confidence. You'll also be involved in recruitment, from screening candidates and reviewing code challenges to helping shape how we onboard new joiners. • You'll regularly translate technical concepts for non-technical stakeholders. Being able to explain the "why" behind decisions clearly and calmly is a big part of this role.
Benefits
• Flexible hybrid working. Two days a week in our Central London office in Farringdon, the rest from wherever works for you. • No out-of-hours support. We believe great work happens when people have balance. • Real influence. You'll have direct input into architectural decisions and the technical direction of a growing SaaS platform. • A learning culture. Dedicated time and support for developing new skills, working with modern cloud-native technologies. • A collaborative team. We genuinely enjoy working together and supporting each other's growth. • 25 days holiday per year plus Bank Holidays • Income Protection (75% salary after 26 weeks) • Access to WeCare Employee Assistance Programme • Cycle to Work Scheme • Annual eyecare voucher with Specsavers • We encourage applications from people of all backgrounds. If you're excited about this role but don't tick every box, we'd still love to hear from you. Curiosity and a desire to learn matter more to us than a perfect checklist.
