Software Engineer | Hybrid/Remote | UK | 45-65k

The Sunday Times Best Places to Work. Plus FT Award!

This isn't your typical "we're changing the world" startup waffle. These folks are actually doing something interesting – building an AI-powered tool that is a market leader!

Founded in 2020, they've gone from zero to hero pretty quickly (hence the FT award), and now they're at that sweet spot where you can still make a massive impact but without the "will we exist next month?" anxiety.

Their engineering team? Thoughtful, collaborative, actually gives a toss about quality code. They're building a platform that thousands of people use all day, every day – so no pressure, but also... proper impact.

The Role (The Actual Work Bit)

You'll be a proper full-stack engineer here. None of this "you'll exclusively work on one microservice in the corner" nonsense.

You'll be:

• Building features end-to-end (Python backend, Svelte/jQuery frontend)
• Owning your work from "hey, we should build this" through to "bloody hell, it actually works"
• Working with genuinely smart people who'll make you better at your job
• Actually talking to Product and QA like humans (revolutionary, we know)
• Having opinions on product direction that people will actually listen to

The tech stuff:

• Python (you should be solid here)
• Svelte/jQuery (or similar modern frontend – they're not religious about it)
• AWS, APIs, integrations, the usual suspects
• Bonus points for: browser extensions, LLMs, third-party API wizardry

The "You" Bit

They're not just hiring walking CVs. They want:

• Someone who gives a damn about quality and maintainability (future-you will thank present-you)
• A collaborator, not a lone wolf genius type
• Product thinking – understanding the "why" not just the "what"
• Clear communication, especially when things get messy
• Initiative without needing your hand held
• Startup/scale-up battle scars preferred

Basically: be good at engineering, be sound to work with, care about the product. That's it.

The Perks (Because Let's Be Honest, You Want to Know)

• 25 days holiday + bank holidays
• MacBook + whatever tech you need
• Proper flexible working (hybrid/remote, your choice)
• Private health, dental, vision (Aviva)
• Income protection
• Mental health support & EAP
• Compassionate leave (because life happens)
• Pension contributions (Royal London)
• Monthly socials (actually fun ones)
• Regular hackathons (the good kind)

Why This Could Be Great for You

• High-performing team without the toxic hustle culture
• Autonomy and ownership without being left to drown
• Real product impact with a user base that actually uses what you build
• Company that's growing fast but sensibly
• Engineering team with actual principles (they wrote them down and everything)

Sound Good?

If you're a solid engineer who wants breadth, impact, and to work with people who are the best at what they do. then apply!
