Levels Technologies - Software Engineer (UK

• Develop and own our core applications - CRM and finance services - for internal and external users. • Evaluation criteria (in priority order): • 1. Fast-growth / high-performance startup or scaleup experience (highest weight) • Has worked at a Series A/B (or comparable) startup through a period of rapid scaling, ideally not just a large, stable org. • Comfortable with ambiguity, shifting priorities, and shipping under pressure without over-engineering. • 2. Python / FastAPI (must-have) • Strong, current production Python with FastAPI specifically. This is a hard requirement, not a nice-to-have. • 3. Strong agentic workflows / development optimisation • Actively uses AI coding agents (Claude Code, Cursor, etc.) as a core part of how they work, not as an occasional aid. • Thinks about optimising their own and the team's development workflow - tooling, automation, spec-driven development. • Ownership of quality (baseline expectation): • Used to owning their own testing and quality - writes and maintains their own tests, doesn't rely on a separate QA function to catch issues. • Disqualifiers / flags: • No FastAPI / weak Python. • Based outside Europe. • Purely frontend focus with no backend service ownership. • No evidence of the scaleup or agentic criteria.
