• Software Engineer L5£55K – £75K • 📍Manchester (Hybrid, up to 4 days WFH) | 💰 £55k-£75k • Street Group is one of the fastest-growing PropTech companies in the UK. We want to be the leading creator of delightful experiences for everybody involved in buying, selling, renting and letting property, regardless of their involvement, to improve the industry for everybody by elevating UK Estate Agencies through world-class technology. • Our products, Street.co.uk and Spectre form a powerful duo, working harmoniously together to transform an agent’s job. From securing more leads and winning new instructions to streamlining business operations and growing market share, our products are supercharging 1,000s of agencies across the UK. • How we work in 2026 • How we work in 2026 • Engineering at Street Group has changed. Most of us don't write code by hand day-to-day anymore - agents do; we direct. The bar has moved with it; planning and judgement matter more than typing speed: engineers run several workstreams in parallel, directing agent sessions while their own attention goes on design calls and the more complex problems. Real product and user understanding, once a "nice to have," is now baseline. • Being genuinely tuned into AI tooling is core to the role here, not a side skill - and if you'd rather work the “old” way, that's fair - but we’re probably not the place for you. • You'll own features from start to finish: scoping the problem, directing the build through to deployment, and iterating based on what you learn. You'll also contribute to discovery and ideation, and work alongside designers and engineers to identify, prioritise, and solve problems efficiently. If you love autonomy, are naturally curious, and want to have a genuine impact within a growing company, we think you'd fit right in! • Here’s what you can expect to be working on as a Senior Software Engineer (L5) at Street Group • Owning your area of the codebase and its direction: scoping ambiguous problems end-to-end and building with distributed systems and scale in mind. • Directing parallel agent sessions to deliver work, while your own attention goes on the design decisions, reviews and complex problems where your judgement is required. • Playing an active role in the department's big technical moves: security work, architectural changes, and platform upgrades. • Building and improving the team's AI infrastructure beyond your own work - shared plugin skills and the review and CI loops the whole team relies on. • Bringing product thinking into everything you build: understanding the user and commercial problem behind the brief, challenging requirements that don't serve the outcome, and being a regular technical voice in discovery alongside product and design. • Mentoring less experienced engineers and holding the team's output to a high standard by showing others how to reach it. • Work closely with technical leaders and Product Designers to offer technical input; paying special attention to scale, maintainability and alignment. • 🏠 Hybrid-working - you can work from home up to 4 days per week🏖️ Guilt-Free R&R - £1000 towards a holiday after your first year with the team (we'll even cover the tax!)💪 Joining a culture that supports your development and encourages growth📚 £500 yearly L&D budget for your career development🎂 Your birthday on us - we pay, you stay away🙋 ‘Give something back’ - 2 paid days volunteering on us👶 Enhanced maternity, paternity & adoption pay🧠 Mental health & well-being support via Health Assured🧘 Regular well-being initiatives🕒 Flexible working hours🚂 Public transport season ticket loans🌷 Paid menopause leave🌞 Holiday buying scheme🚀 Joining a new team in an exciting business with huge ambition👥 Be a part of something bigger - everyone in our team is passionate about improving the entire property industry!
