More

We are a close-knit engineering team building and running internal products that more than 700 employees across 70+ locations rely on every day. Our stack includes a Laravel-based ops platform, Azure data pipelines, mobile apps, and a new greenfield system in early development. This is a high-ownership, ship-it role with real influence on architecture and technical decisions, exposure to modern Azure tooling, and a broad stack across data, cloud, and web. We offer a clear path to senior engineer, the chance to help build a greenfield platform from early stages, and a hiring process focused on practical work rather than leetcode or algorithm trivia. The role is hybrid remote based in Amersham, Buckinghamshire.
