Summary

We're working with an exciting London-based startup that has recently announced its Series A funding from one of Europe's leading venture capital firms. With strong momentum behind them, they're now growing their engineering team to help deliver on an ambitious mission.

They're looking for a Senior Software Engineer who enjoys working across the stack and is comfortable building backend systems in Python or TypeScript. The team values product-minded engineers who enjoy solving real customer problems, taking ownership, and shipping high-quality software.

Many of the engineers have backgrounds in startups and high-growth environments, but they're equally open to candidates from larger technology companies where product engineering is central to the culture.

About the Role

This role offers a high degree of autonomy and ownership. You'll work across the full product development lifecycle, contributing to everything from backend services and infrastructure through to user-facing features.

You'll collaborate closely with a talented team of engineers, designers, and founders to build products that have a direct impact on customers. The team places a strong emphasis on collaboration, kindness, and intellectual curiosity, and they're looking for engineers who enjoy working in a highly ambitious environment.

Experience or interest in AI is a plus, particularly if you've used AI tools to enhance your development workflow or have worked on AI-powered products.

What We're Looking For

• 5+ years of professional software engineering experience
• Experience building products within a product-focused company
• Strong full-stack engineering capabilities
• Commercial experience with Python or TypeScript on the backend
• Ability to take ownership and operate with a high degree of autonomy
• Comfortable working in fast-moving, high-growth environments
• Interest in AI technologies and modern AI-assisted development practices
• Based in or near London for hybrid working
