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.

Principal Software Developer

Role: Principal Software Developer 

Salary: £70-80k plus benefits 

Location/ Working Arrangement: Birmingham office, flexible working hours and location. You can go into the office as much or as little as you like. The average, I would say, is 1/ month. 

Do you want to work in a company that is big enough to have well-established career paths, small enough to know that all your work makes a real, material difference, and prides itself on not only some of the best tech talent around but a culture to match?

If not, why not?!

I love recruiting for this company, and I’m sure you’ll love working there.

I am looking for a Principal Software Developer to join a team of 5 highly proficient, friendly people, consisting of a Team Leader, 2 Senior Devs, a Mid-Level Dev, and a QA.

Please note that this is an individual contributor role, which means that you will provide technical direction to the team you’re in, but you will not be responsible for the wellbeing of the team: that is in the remit of your peer- the Team Leader of your team.

As an experienced and highly capable Software Developer, well-versed in modern software development best practices, cloud services, architecture, and high-quality solutions, this role will see you providing both hands-on software development yourself and technical leadership for the team you’re in, which looks after 6 software products, 2 of which are larger and more notable than the others.

You will be a democratic, force for good within the team: knowing when to take the initiative to instruct and when to listen and encourage those around you. You will make key decisions around several areas, including software architecture, technology choices and solution design, all with the knowledge in mind that achieving software excellence is a group activity, and all ideas are welcomed, from everyone. Successful outcomes are something to be shared and for everyone to be proud of and contribute to.

Tech-wise, you will be competent with the following: C#, Typescript, SQL, .NET, Angular, and a range of Azure platform-as-a-service components. You will also do great tests for every bit of code you write!  You will have no direct reports but will be a hands-on, Senior team member, supporting and working closely alongside the Team Leader.

If this sounds like a great time to you, apply now, or if you want to ask some questions to learn more, drop me a line and let’s talk!

Product Manager

Role: Product Manager

Location: Chorley – 4 days a week in the office

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.

If this sounds like the role for you, please get in touch.

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.

Role:  IT Manager – ISO experience needed (initially 4 months)  

Salary:  Competitive Daily Rate (Inside IR35)

Location:  Nottingham – Hybrid – 1 day a week in the office

How long have you been an IT manager? Do you have a wealth of experience? Are you at a stage in your career where you need a change?

Have you been instrumental in transforming teams and departments throughout your IT management career? Have you previously advised internal stakeholders of the best suited strategy of the department, where resources should be used and identifying potential areas that need to be documented and how to go about getting ISO accreditations?

If so, keep reading because I’ve got a cracking contract role on, just for you!

This IT Manager role will be spinning two plates, the first plate is the technical support to internal users and the second is experience in ISO accreditations.

  • Previous experience in either obtaining ISO accreditations or at least the upkeep of them.

Software Engineering Manager – Earth Observation

Location: Fully remote within Europe, +/- 2 hours of CET.

Salary: €75K – €90K + 13% vacation supplement + equity & benefits.

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 and costly.

Vegetation management may not sound all that exciting but building earth observation software to integrate satellite imagery with geospatial analysis and Machine Learning with data coming in from teams, remote sensors and other hardware on the ground 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 improving energy and climate resilience.

The company have grown rapidly since the end of 2021. There are ~60 people now, with around 45 of those in tech.

Engineering Manager

Role:  Engineering Manager 

Location:  Office in Derby that you’ll need to go into at least 3 days per week for the first 6 months, then it drops down to around once per month. 

Salary:  £60k  

Have you been unofficially managing a dev team, even offshore devs, whilst having to deliver code at the same time?  Would you really rather concentrate all your efforts on managing, coaching, and developing the people in your team?

Then this role is for you!

I’m working with a Property SaaS company who have grown a lot recently, through acquisition. They have turned a collection of small industry-leading companies into a group that’s hard to be rivalled!

Due to this way of growing, they have maintained the small company feel to their roles and added the security and stability of a parent company into the mix, therefore giving their team the best of both worlds.

This role will see you leading a team of 50 developers in a mix of in-house and offshore reports, and you’ll be completely hands-off: this is a full-time job in itself!

Whilst you’ll not be hands-on in this role, a strong technical background in the Microsoft web tech stack is necessary for you to hold your own in technical conversations, 1-2-1s, code and performance reviews, etc. So, C#, .Net Core, SQL Server, Azure, and complementary tech like JavaScript/ TypeScript with a SPA framework like Angular, React, and Vue.

You’ll be someone who really cares about people and having a happy, high-performing team is what you strive to maintain. Being able to show examples of mentoring and/ or leading more junior team members and helping them grow and develop to the point of getting promoted in your current or past roles will be great for you to show at the interview.

It is no small task to manage people around the world, so previous experience in leading or managing (unofficially is fine) offshore teams, as well as in-house devs, is crucial for this role.

If you’re ready to be unleashed and show what you can really do, hit apply to be considered immediately!

Engineering Manager  

Role:  Engineering Manager  

Location:  Fully remote working model- remote first attitude, no obligation to go into an office.  

Global offices, with 3 in the UK in the South of England.

Salary:  Up to £90k plus excellent benefits 

How does joining a well-established, market-leading, global, and growing SaaS company sound to you?  How about a role that lets you have a singular mission of ensuring your dev team is happy?

Like what you are reading? Then read on, I’m excited for you!

I am working with a really lovely company that is not only excellent at what they do, but rather unique, too!  They are a global company with a remote-first mentality. They care about their people and are adept at identifying ways they can improve as a company and acting on it, which is what they’re doing by creating this role.

They have seen that they are lacking a middle management layer in their development teams to be able to cascade down changes coming from above, and to make sure that their development teams are looked after, so they’ve decided to go ahead and hire someone to do just that.

Looking after a team of 10-12 engineers, they are looking for someone who is strongly motivated to ensure the well-being, happiness, performance, career progression, and appropriate training is received by the team they are heading up. To this end, they have removed the delivery aspect of the usual engineering manager role, so you’ll have no distractions from your mission.  This will be your whole world.

Their tech teams use the Microsoft stack, so C#, .Net, Azure, SQL Server, and JavaScript/ TypeScript with angular on the front end. A background in this would be beneficial as you’ll be able to have in-depth technical 1-2-1s and performance reviews!

If this sounds like what you’ve been waiting for, then apply now! If you want to find out a bit more first, contact me and we can have a chat.
