Principal Software Developer

Role: Principal Software Developer

Salary: £75-85k plus benefits

Location: Birmingham once per fortnight

Are you looking to join a company that strikes the perfect balance – big enough to offer well-established career paths, yet small enough that your work makes a tangible difference? A company that not only boasts top-tier tech talent but also a culture that matches?

I love recruiting for this company, and I’m confident you’ll love working here.

We’re searching for a Principal Software Developer to join a team of four highly skilled and friendly individuals: a Team Leader and three developers.

As an experienced Software Developer with deep expertise in modern development practices, cloud services, architecture, and crafting high-quality solutions, this role will see you actively contributing to hands-on software development while providing technical leadership within your team.

You’ll be a democratic force within the team—knowing when to lead decisively and when to listen and encourage collaboration. You’ll make key decisions around software architecture, technology choices, and solution design, always with the understanding that achieving software excellence is a collective effort. Here, all ideas are valued, and success is shared.

Tech-wise, you’ll be proficient in C#, .NET, Angular, TypeScript, SQL, and various Azure platform-as-a-service components. You’ll also ensure that every piece of code you write is well-tested.

If this sounds like the right opportunity for you, apply now! Or if you want to ask some questions to learn more, drop me a line and let’s talk!

We welcome diverse applicants and are dedicated to treating all applicants with dignity and respect, regardless of background.

Software Delivery Manager – Sustainability

Software Delivery Manager – Sustainability

Location: Fully remote within occasional trips to Scotland.

Salary: Circa €70K + bonus + share scheme + private health.

Fun fact for the day: Global shipping contributes 3% of the world’s carbon emissions.  That’s the same as the *whole* of Europe’s largest economy, Germany.  It’s an industry that relies heavily on the cheapest and dirtiest fossil fuel: crude oil.  And use is predicted to rise, fast, unless someone does something about it.

Like so many things, there are obvious solutions staring us in the face, but it takes a brave and bold few to embrace the challenge and attempt to turn the tide.

This company is a purpose-driven endeavour. Honestly they’re looking to change the world. For the past 10 years they’ve been working day and night to develop their (quite frankly astonishing) products and services, and they’re on the cusp of something special.

However, to take that next jump, they need an accomplished software delivery professional to join them and help drive their suite of digital products and services, to complement their engineering-based solutions.

You’d work with the teams of third parties who up until now have developed their software, leading analysis and engagement, and driving delivery.  You’ll be regarded as the company chief digital authority, developing strategy and providing insights to the leadership team and high-profile customers.

Your projects will vary, from IoT/hardware control systems through to data-science and SaaS platforms.

You won’t be doing any programming or directly managing engineers (at least for the medium term) but you will have worked in heavily technical environments where you have been responsible for making sure key software projects are specced, resourced and delivered effectively (and to budget).

It’s going to be a multi-faceted role drawing on your technical, project delivery, stakeholder management, commercial and strategic skills, and given the company is still relatively small you will need to love being in the thick of the action and rolling your sleeves up to support the company mission as is required.

You’ll have worked previously a Software Engineering Manager, Delivery Manager or Specialist Software Project Manager, ideally with a technical background that includes some SaaS and/or Data Science experience.

Any previous experience within the shipping industry would be great, along with some previous start-up/scale-up exposure.

You will likely be a passionate supporter of the sustainability movement or at least have a genuine interest in working for a purpose-driven company.

The team are friendly and passionate, and the company are supportive with great benefits including a share scheme and possible bonus, so you’ll bought into any future success.

Longer term, the company are expecting to make several hires in 12-18 months, so there will be an opportunity to help shape this growth and potentially grow a small in-house team.

Although the role is remote, the company would strongly prefer to hire someone who lives in Scotland as they are likely to be opening up a Scotland office soon and quarterly meetings will be help there.

So, do you want to use your skills to help make a significant dent in the climate crisis? Well, what are you waiting for?

We welcome diverse applicants and are dedicated to treating all applicants with dignity and respect, regardless of background.

Tech Lead

Role:  Tech Lead – TypeScript, AWS 

Location:  Office in Leicestershire. Hybrid working model of 1-2 days per week in the office, the rest is working from home. 

Salary:  Up to £95k plus bonus and benefits 

You’ve got bags of passion and experience not only in creating excellent technical solutions but also in turning teams around.   You take all their bad habits and introduce great ones.  You coach, you mentor, you inspire.

Bringing all of this knowledge, experience, and enthusiasm to the fore, this role will challenge you in the best way and be so rewarding.

I am working exclusively with a fabulous tech company that enriches the lives of the people it serves: the incredible people who protect the community.

I am looking for you: someone who is exceptionally skilled with technology and leading teams.  For you, best practice around software engineering and cloud engineering is your de facto way of doing things:  You can turn your hand to whatever problem you encounter because you have the fundamentals down to a tee.

Experience-wise, you have been in teams where they have been using waterfall-y ways of product development, working with monolithic architectures, messy code bases, and unhelpful silos. You have been pivotal in turning those teams around to use iterative, Agile ways of working, especially continuous development (CD) practices, and fostered a collaborative culture of bringing people from product/ development/ QA, etc. together to reduce release lead times and catch potential issues/ bugs before they become problematic.

Most importantly of all, you’ve inspired a culture of curiosity- experimenting, iterating, and improving how your team do things, from finding and fixing bugs, to how they develop and implement new features.

In this role, you’ll be doing this all again in an environment that’s open and hungry for positive change!

You will technically be leading a team of 5 engineers, alongside a Product Manager, and will be very hands-on with around half your time spent on development and architecture, and the other half of your time spent in planning sessions, coaching the team, doing code reviews, building a team and architecture roadmap, etc.

If this sounds right up your street, apply today, or drop me a line to find out more!

Solutions Architect

Role: Solutions Architect

Location: Nottinghamshire office. Hybrid working, ranging from twice per week up to once per month, depending on your preferences.

Salary: Around £80k, there is wiggle room for the right candidate.

Do you love puzzles and seeing things fit together seamlessly? Have you been a Solutions Architect in an Architecture team and feel it’s about time you get yourself a new puzzle to solve? Are you nodding along as you’re reading this? Read on, my friend!

I am working with a lovely little company looking to expand its Architecture team’s capabilities by bringing you on board.

They are part of a bigger group of international companies that operate in the fabrication industry. To have a great time in this role, you’ll be someone who has a stellar background in Microsoft web development with C#, .Net, SQL Server, and AWS. Not only that but, here is the crucial part, you’ll be a great communicator too.

Now, I know that ‘great communicator’ is a term that’s banded around so much that it loses its meaning, but in this case, I mean it. You’ll be talking with lots of different people, from external senior stakeholders, internal stakeholders, your architecture team, product people and devs.

There is a lot of orchestrating, both technically – and naturally, it’s what you do! – and with the company and wider group.

Part of being a great communicator is the ability to be open-minded and respectful of different opinions when discussing solutions or other hot topics with others, and to be able to admit when you’re wrong, or someone else’s idea might fit the bill better. No big egos here, please!

Please note that I will only be able to consider you if you’ve experienced as a Solutions Architect and have worked in a dedicated architecture team before. If you’re a technical architect looking for a step up into the next level of architecture, this role is not for you as this is essentially a role that their tech leads have covered.

This is a fab role that will see you influence their solutions architecture, improve their technical roadmap, and generally have a lot of say in how things are done. It’s a small team/ company so all the work you do will be seen and matter, but it comes with the security of being part of a larger group of companies.

There is also the opportunity to travel internationally with work too, which is always fun!

If you like the sound of this role, then either apply now for immediate consideration or drop me a line to find out more!

We welcome diverse applicants and are dedicated to treating all applicants with dignity and respect regardless of background.

Product Manager

Salary: up to 55K, potential wiggle room for the right candidate

Are you well versed in working with products? Are you able to take ownership and work with stakeholders? If so, read on….

A shrinking butterfly, not at all what’s required.  I am looking for the butterfly that will flourish and raise the stakes with the way product is dealt with in the business. You will take full responsibility for all the products internally within the business, so experience of managing products internally is a bonus!! There are approximately 5-10 core products.

You won’t be thrown into this alone, there will be a BA who will work alongside you and help with various aspects of the products. You will need to be proactive and take full responsibility of the build of the road maps for example.

Product is currently treated reactively, which can lead to being on the back foot at times. You will be happy to challenge processes and the way things work. You will be the driving force within the business and help the business understand the benefits and need for change to be made.

If you are looking for a clean slate where you can come in and put your own stamp onto a role then this is the positions for you, as in their words, “you will be starting from scratch”. Being able to communicate to non-technical members of staff to understand their needs is also a big brownie point.

ClimateTech Software Engineering Manager – Earth Observation

ClimateTech Software Engineering Manager – Earth Observation
Location: Fully remote within Europe, +/- 2 hours of CET.
Salary: €75K – €100K + equity & benefits.

Forest management is tough. Cut too much and we release carbon, too little and the risk of wildfire or damage to infrastructure can be devastating.

Vegetation monitoring may not sound very exciting but building earth observation software, utilising satellite imagery and Machine Learning with remote sensing and geospatial presents interesting challenges.

These systems are used to efficiently manage resources and team activities, saving time and money.

Most importantly though, this saves homes, businesses and services from blackouts caused by seasonal and extreme weather events. It’s a game changer in energy and climate resilience.

The company have grown rapidly since the end of 2021. There are ~70 people now, with around 45 in development and data science across 5 teams with one core product, each being quite specialised.

You’ll lead a team of 6-8 cross-disciplined people, building out new features and implementing deeply interesting product developments. Your key focus will be optimising the team, removing bottlenecks, and supporting them individually, managing resources and planning workloads in line with changing priorities.

Data processing and pipelines are critical to the work, and it’s essential you’ve worked with machine learning products in the past. Geospatial and remote sensing data experience and any knowledge of satellite and high-resolution imagery would also be very helpful.

Their tech stack is Python, Django, Typescript, Node and React, with Google Cloud Platform for managing their services. They use a lot of PyTorch and TensorFlow and various other data libraries or frameworks so you might be getting the hint that data exp is key experience.

They’re hoping to find someone who’s been an EM in numerous companies, having seen some different approaches to leadership, process design and implementation, onboarding, and a deep curiosity for understanding people. Empathy is critical and this all feeds into building a team who are passionate about having a positive impact and compassionate towards their peers.

They also want someone familiar with startup environments, ideally who’s been through series A-C fundraises and the growth that comes with bringing on paying customers and investment simultaneously.

The team are friendly and passionate, and the company are supportive with good benefits including equity, so you’re bought into any future success.

Want to help address the climate crisis? What are you waiting for? 😁

ClimateTech Senior Fullstack Engineer – Earth Observation

ClimateTech Senior Fullstack Engineer – Earth Observation
Salary: €65,000 – €85,000 + equity
Location: Fully remote – Europe or UK based.

Forest management can be challenging. Cut too much and you’re causing unnecessary damage, too little and the risk of wildfire or damage to infrastructure can be devastating.

Vegetation monitoring may not sound very exciting but building earth observation software, utilising satellite imagery and Machine Learning with remote sensing and geospatial presents interesting challenges.

These systems are used to efficiently manage resources and team activities, saving time and money.

Most importantly though, this saves homes, businesses and services from blackouts caused by seasonal and extreme weather events. It’s a game changer in energy and climate resilience.

The company has grown rapidly since the end of 2021. There are 70 people now, with around 45 of those in development and data science across 5 teams with one core product, each team being quite specialised.

The company is hoping to find people with experience in earth observation or some familiarity with image processing and GIS/Geospatial technologies.

You’ll focus on building dashboards and web apps connecting various aerial imagery and satellite data to customers, enabling decision-making. You’ll work closely with product managers in an Agile environment. The company’s tech teams have grown heavily in the last 12 months and will continue to do so through the next 12+ months following the close of their Series A fundraiser.

They use Google Cloud Platform and Python alongside modern Typescript, ES6, ES7 and frameworks like React and NodeJS. Their products are very geospatial and remote sensing focused so experience with Python and GIS tools or geospatial data will be prioritised.

As with most dev roles these days you’ll do quite a lot of work with APIs, FASTAPI specifically, so browser API and backend API building is a must.

They’re keen to find someone with experience working in startups, ideally in the space sector, with imagery in some capacity, or with data pipelines and machine learning products.

Following that, a real passion for climate solutions is something they’ll need to see.

They care about their staff. They have a 13% vacation stipend to send you on some epic holidays contribute to your training and development and operate truly flexibly – so long as you’re available and overlap with the team (+/- 3-hour CET is best) you can work when you choose.

If this sounds like a bit of you, please reach out. They’re remote first and will consider people anywhere in Europe.
