Compensation- Software EngineerSalary £45K - £55K • 0.25% - 0.5%
 
Location: London (Hybrid, 4 days/week in office) • Team: Early engineering • As: Full-stack engineer
Why this role
Ship useful software fast. You'll design, build, and own features end-to-end in a small team working directly with the founders. You'll build and ship features that matter, take real ownership of your work, and grow quickly as part of a high-velocity team.
What You'll Do
- Design, build, and ship user-facing features across the stack.
 - Develop and maintain REST APIs and backend services with scalable, maintainable designs.
 - Implement secure data flows and integrations.
 - Build complex workflow tools and interactive UIs (think editors, tables, real-time updates).
 - Keep quality high through tests, reviews, and clear, simple code.
 - Work directly with founders and product from concept to release + iteration.
 
What We're Looking For
- Startup mindset: bias for action, ability to work independently, comfort with ambiguity.
 - Strong fundamentals: solid grounding in computer science (data structures, algorithms, systems).
 - Full-stack skills: React/TypeScript or similar on the frontend, Python/Django (or another MVC framework) on the backend.
 - Track Record: 2+ years professional experience or open-source/projects that show you can build and ship.
 - Collaboration: strong communication, team-first attitude.
 
Nice to Have
- Experience with Next.js or modern server-side frameworks.
 - Familiarity with component libraries/design systems.
 - Curiosity for DevOps, CI/CD, or infra as code.
 
Why Join Us
- Ownership: we expect every engineer to think beyond code, shaping product and architecture.
 - Learning & Growth: work directly with founders in a fast-paced environment.
 - Startup energy: small team, ambitious mission, rapid iteration, big upside.
