Engineering Manager  

Written by Rebel Recruiters on .

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.

I’m working with a global company to find their first QA Manager to join a team and help grow and develop them.

You’ll slot into their existing team, who are spread across the globe. You will be responsible for a small team, onshore and offshore, developing and mentoring them.

Customer Success Data Manager

Location: East Midlands, fully remote with a monthly meeting in the East Midlands

Salary: up to 45k

Does making a difference matter to you? Does Education float your boat? If so, carry on reading.

For this role, it is crucial that you have worked in the Education sector within a school, preferably at Trust level, however, this is a nice to have, rather than a necessity.

You will be the first person in this role, so you have the opportunity to make this role your own and put your own processes in place. It is not very often that you get the opportunity to walk into a clean slate and have no one else’s shoes to fill.

You need to have a passion for data, as well as project implementations. You will be joining a small team, so a shrinking wallflower will not fit in, as you will need to ensure that your voice is heard, and your ideas and thoughts will be listened too.

The following experience is essential:

  • 3 years experience working as a Data Manager in a school
  • Understanding the data requirements of a school and multi academy trusts
  • Knowledge of data tracking and analysis
  • An interest in software products and technical concepts

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

Conservation Tech Lead

Conservation Tech Lead – Ruby on Rails & JavaScript

Location: Cambridge, hybrid – 2 days per month on-site

Salary: Up to £70K + 12% pension

Biodiversity is finally raising the agenda globally, following various agreements made at BioCOP15 in Canada in late 2022.

Monitoring and reporting financial disclosures and their impacts on nature will be compulsory for many large companies from early 2024, particularly those extracting resources, developing land or providing finance.

Working for a conservation partnership of 4 organisations this role will be working on a geospatial mapping tool which tracks biodiversity over land and oceans. The usership has doubled in the last 18 months with no signs of slowing. The platform is also used by conservation partners and governments to allow for more robust decision-making and policy creation.

You’ll work predominantly with Ruby on Rails and JavaScript to build new features, taking some ownership of design and architecture as you grow into the position and learn how your team work best. They use PostgreSQL and have lots of APIs which require maintenance.

Interestingly, you’ll have the best of several worlds in this role, being employed by a charity with a large broader tech team and a strong support network, events and workshops for upskilling and a wonderful culture, while being embedded in a specific product team.

You’ll manage around 4 people, though this will likely grow to ~7 in the next year. You’ll take ultimate responsibility for the platform, including touching on things like security, testing, documentation and coaching your team, though there are colleagues across the partnership who can support in areas outside of your skillset, e.g., security.

As the tool is geospatial / mapping focused, any experience using or building GIS tools will be hugely beneficial. Knowledge of conservation, rewilding, ecology, biodiversity, or any field within environmental science will also stand out, as will a demonstrable passion for tackling the climate crisis.

The team needs a leader with experience, someone who can manage resources, assess future priorities and requirements, identify gaps within the team skills matrix and maintain calm when deadlines are looming. This platform is the authoritative tool in the sector globally, and the aim is to maintain that prestige and impact.

So, if you’re serious about saving our planet and turning the tide against the fight to fix our climate crisis, this is a role you should apply for.

What are you waiting for?

Product Manager

Written by Rebel Recruiters on .

Role: Product Manager

Location: Fully Remote

Salary:  Up to 70k

This is a brand-new role, you will not be stepping into anyone else’s shoes and will have a completely clean slate to work with. If the idea of being solely responsible for Product hasn’t scared you away, please carry on reading.

You will ideally have worked within the Ed-Tech sector, however, if you have worked with a company in the Education sector then please do get in touch. With a clean slate, you will set the way Product will work in the business, take full control of this, and grow a team as the business grows and develops further.

You will be joining a small team, who are supportive and looking to grow the business and they want you to join them in that vision. You will be responsible for translating the business strategy into product strategy, as well as driving action through the organisation in order to take the products to market.

You will have a proven track record of managing product success and be excited to take full responsibility for strategy and roadmaps to name a few. Ownership is key here, as you will own Product and it will be in your hands to watch it grow and develop.

The role is 100% remote, and the exciting thing about this role is that they want you to be completely included in the business and in order to share the vision, there are EMI share options available. There is also private healthcare.

If this sounds right up your street, please get in touch! ✊

Product Manager – Sustainability

Written by Rebel Recruiters on .

Role:  Product Manager (Sustainability)

Salary:  £50k to £60k per annum base + bonus and benefits

Location:  2 times a week in the West Midlands / Warwickshire during probation (can be largely remote thereafter)

Sector – ESG / Sustainability

You’re a highly talented Product professional.  You build rock-solid roadmaps, are highly data-led and drive product development teams forward to get things delivered.

But are the Products you are currently delivering helping to make the world a better, more sustainable place?

Perhaps that’s becoming increasingly important to you, or at the very least you like the idea of working as a PM at a company with a growing global footprint, super-talented individuals and a track record of progressing careers.

We’ve worked with this company for years and have been proud to see many of our placements go on to great things there.  The feedback from them is always positive and, whilst they have their challenges (as do all fast-growing companies), they treat people well and have everyone bought into the company vision.

In this role you will be looking after a product portfolio of 3 large internally facing products.  You will be supported by two Business Analysts and will be working with a development team based across the UK with some offshore support.

To be clear, whilst there may be some new product development, this role is more concerned with taking the company’s existing products and making them fit for the company’s growth and expansion plans.

If you are the sort of Product Manager who gets their kicks by undertaking deep user research and mapping out competitive markets whilst visioning new products this probably isn’t the role for you!

The company has a wealth of knowledge and experience that you will be able to draw on internally, so this would suit someone who has worked in a more internal delivery-focused Product Management role as opposed to a commercially driven PM background.

Your previous title is not so important, so if you are a Product Manager, a Product Owner or hold any other title, as long as you have a proven track record in developing product roadmaps and working with software development teams to ensure effective delivery of these, then you will be considered for the position.

On offer is a base salary up to £60k, a generous pension scheme, bonus, life assurance and subsidized gym membership.

Please do apply or call us to discuss further!

Director of Cloud Security

Written by Rebel Recruiters on .

Director of Cloud & Security
Salary: €100K+, 13% vacation stipend, equity and more.
Location: Fully remote – Central European time +/- 3

Forest management can be challenging. Cut too much and you’re causing unnecessary damage or increasing the risk of drought, 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 nature, time and money. Also avoiding homes, businesses and services experiencing 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 ~65 people now, with around 40 of those in tech, including data science, product and delivery.

So far, their DevOps function is currently managed by one DevOps Engineer. You’ll lead that individual and take ownership of resources, strategy and policy longer term as they scale their services and teams which are highly specialised.

The role will start around 50% hands-on, shifting to ~20% over the next 18 months and the team will grow from one to at least five by the end of 2024.

You may also have some customer engagement if a large / niche customer comes on board with specific security requirements, again you’d handle the strategic approach to those scenarios, including resource management and additional personnel needs.

Appreciating most people don’t have specialisms in both security & DevOps, this role could fit someone from either a security or DevOps background, so long as you have touched on the other discipline to a reasonably high degree, perhaps managing or collaborating closely with DevOps or Security teams and have the knowledge to assess scenarios outside of your strengths and bring in the right consultant or hire, ask the right questions and deliver on business goals

They use Python and Google Cloud Platform but understand AWS or Azure are largely transferrable. Experience with security principles, e.g. NIST, ISO 27001 or SOC2 is essential as you’ll manage external auditors and security partnerships, including with customers’ security teams – at least early days.

Most importantly, they need someone to embed and influence their DevOps & Security culture, someone who’s not afraid to coach individuals and teams and adapt to changing business priorities as they arise, so some kind of startup experience is also going to be key.

Following that, a real passion for climate solutions is something they’ll want to see. They care about their teams. They have budgets to contribute to your training and development and operate truly flexibly – so long as you’re available and overlap with the team (+/- 3 hours CET is best).

If this sounds like a bit of you please reach out. They’re remote first and will consider people anywhere in Europe. They can also provide visa sponsorship via a Netherlands government salary sacrifice scheme if you’d prefer to move to the Netherlands.

GreenTech Technical Delivery Lead

GreenTech Tech Delivery Lead

Location: Fully remote within Europe, +/- 1 hour of CET.
Salary: €70K – €85K + 13% vacation supplement + equity & benefits.

Vegetation management. Harder than it sounds. Cut too much; cause unnecessary damage, too little and the risk of wildfire or damage to infrastructure can be devastating and costly.

Vegetation management may not sound 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 protects as much nature as possible while saving homes, businesses, and services from blackouts caused by seasonal and extreme weather events. Literally improving energy and climate resilience.

The company have grown rapidly since the end of 2021. There are ~60 people now, with around 30 of those in development and geospatial / data science.

The data science team are growing to increase the capacity of their systems for their existing clients, and to meet demand as new clients with ever-more-interesting requirements come online. They need someone to support these efforts to utilise the tools they’ve built to bring value from satellite imagery and other geospatial datasets, analysing those using machine learning, and delivering the end results to customers.

You’ll work with commercial teams and customers to understand their needs, what existing solutions can be applied, what’s already planned and in development and what future capabilities can be delivered. You’ll design bespoke solutions and wrangle the necessary people to deliver those.

Also, supporting software engineering and data science teams to improve and create products and tools, define risk, strategy and resource management alongside executing delivery plans in line with estimations.

This role is somewhat hybrid, touching on technical project management, with some hands-on work using Python and Jupyter notebooks to implement fixes, optimise and configure tools and generally tie off loose ends where needed, so you’ll be ~30% hands-on.

Commercial remote sensing experience and satellite imagery exp are a huge benefit, but having experience with Python and Jupyter Notebooks is a must, and they’re keen to speak with people who’ve worked at start-ups or small companies where close customer relationships and interaction are/were the norm. 

Predominantly they use Python, but they also work pretty heavily with GIS technologies and tools. They also use PyTorth and Tensorflow, so experience with similar frameworks or libraries will be transferrable, especially if you have that remote sensing, geospatial or satellite data exp.

There will be projects that others lead, and you review or support, but you will take the lead on lots of different projects, some small, some larger. The team are friendly and passionate, and the company are supportive with good benefits including equity, so you’ve bought into any future success.

What are you waiting for – if this sounds interesting and you have done 60-70%, or more, of what’s mentioned above in some form, do hit apply. 

Scrum Master

Written by Rebel Recruiters on .

Role:  Scrum Master

Location:  Fully Remote

Salary:  Flexible

Businesses can be hectic. With so many different projects constantly on the run, deadlines to be met and standards to be fulfilled, your typical team can turn into a group of headless chickens! However, it only takes one person. One person to come in and maintain the peace. Adding structure. Defining objectives. Delegating responsibility. The middleman (or woman) between peace and chaos. Think you’re that one person?

If so, listen in. I’m working with a software company that excels in supply chain technology. Essentially, they provide food and beverage technology for enterprise companies to help them make smarter, more environmentally sustainable decisions when it comes to things like stock/waste management. They’re at the forefront of green tech and are trusted partners with some of your favourite food companies.

They’re looking for a Scrum Master to come into one of their 5 teams and instil some discipline into badly behaved developers! Not really, but they are looking at reinventing their business structure to optimise how they operate as a team, and this is where you come in.

If you’ve got experience in things like capacity planning and resource allocation, you’re off the mark already. Someone who has good experience working in a fast-paced agile team would be great for this role, but if you’ve got exposure to Waterfall, this is a plus!

I need someone exceptionally organised. If you have OCD, it’d be put to good use here. Someone dynamic in their approach to different teams and sizes, ensuring everyone is working on the right thing and the workforce is staying ahead of schedule, rather than just coasting along. If you’re vocal, can challenge and put forward your own ideas, and have a past record of ensuring the smooth running of teams within a mission-critical environment, step into my office! J

The role is fully remote, and the salary is completely flexible to where you fit in with your experience.

Benefits – Addition holiday, industry-leading maternity/paternity and adoption pay, bespoke flexible working, enhanced long service awards, discounted car schemes, high street discounts etc

You’ll be working with a corporate company that knows a thing or two about cars so if you are an avid petrolhead yourself, there will be lots to get excited about.

As you can imagine, this organization is looking to scale their tech offering ensuring the processes in place are seamless. You’ll be looking after a cracking team of business process specialists whilst liaising with key stakeholders to proactively find areas of improvement in the business.

2x Senior C# Developer

Written by Rebel Recruiters on .

Role: 2x Senior C# Developer

Salary: Up to £65k plus excellent benefits, including a 35-hour week, 30 days leave + BH, medical AND dental, etc.

Location: Nottingham, hybrid working with 2 days per week in the office

PLEASE NOTE: Upon joining, you’ll need to be SC Cleared and so you’ll need UK residence for 3 continuous years prior to employment and to be able to provide proof of address for the previous 5 years.

If you’ve been looking for a company to work for that when you tell your friends and family what you do, they go ‘Ooo, that’s cool!’, then look no further!

The company I am recruiting for, exclusively, creates software for use in public sectors, including the police. They have a wide range of products that I’m excited to tell you about!

so, I am looking for 2 Senior full stack C# Software Engineers from a product house background, who has experience seeing projects and products through the full SDLC (as opposed to someone from an agency background).

A ‘Software Engineering’ mentality is desirable in this role due to the nature of what you’ll be building, which needs to be best in class.

Whilst a solid technical background with C#, .Net Core upwards, SQL Server, Razor, React, JavaScript/ TypeScript, Azure, and in an Agile Scrum environment are paramount in this role, personality is the real key to success here. You’ll be an enthusiastic and ambitious person who thrives in an environment where you’ll get to suggest and implement improvements, constantly! Great processes and products are what they strive for, and you’ll love the fact that they actively encourage contributions and accountability.

Ideally, you’ll be up for some technical leadership or mentoring others in the team, as this is a senior-level role, knowledge sharing is high on their agenda!

The team is full of friendly, intelligent, and technically astute people who love to have a good time at work and who have opinions on technical topics, so the ability to hold your own in a technical conversation, whilst being respectful and open-minded, is going to be very useful for you here! Don’t worry, they are always productive, friendly chats!

The hybrid working model they operate is not for the sake of keeping the office or for micromanagement or anything like that, rather, they really want their teams to feel close to each other and the action, have time and room for spontaneous collaboration, and mentoring, and feel that in-person time isn’t replicable for these kinds of things. They don’t dictate which days you have to go in, but most people tend to go on Tuesdays, Wednesdays, or Thursdays. They also have flexible hours to accommodate all kinds of personal situations.

If you feel this role sounds right up your street, then let’s be avenue (get it? :D) – apply today for immediate consideration!

Head of Software Development

Written by rebelrecruitersinfo on .

Role:  Head of Development

Salary:  £75-85k + equity and bonus

Location:  Leicestershire HQ – 2/3 office visits per month

Data, data, data.  You can’t move without someone launching a new company, product or service and convincing you that you need more data.

And here’s the thing.  Not all data products are equal.  Some are great and genuinely game-changing.

Some are pure ponies.

The proof is always in the pudding, and in this case the pudding is the number of customers and longevity of the company – and this is one seriously good pudding!

This business has been around for several years working in one of the most robust and stable markets around (they’ve still achieved 30% YoY growth in the last two years).

The business is now looking to grow its flagship product, harnessing the power of emerging technologies, to deliver a new and unique service.

The only problem? They need an Engineering leader to deliver this dream. A visionary with the ability to marry business vision with architectural design and team leadership.

We’re looking for an engineering leader with CTO ambitions. Someone ready to break free from the shackles of delivering someone else’s vision and take ownership of delivering your own! You’ll be passionate about technology and inquisitive about how new technologies can enable the business to deliver more value and better service to its customers.

The strategy will be an important part of the role, but the business recognises their ideal candidate may not have been able to demonstrate their abilities in this area in their current role, so they’re willing to give you a chance with them.

For this role you will need:

  • To be an engineering leader with the ability to coach and mentor a team to achieve their full potential.
  • Proven experience in the .NET stack with the ability to architect solutions that can scale with business ambitions.
  • To be the voice of engineering – engagement with non-technical stakeholders is critical.

The company are offering between £75-85k base with potential for equity, bonus and a generous holiday allowance, health insurance and pension. The company offers the ability to work in a true scale-up environment with a warm and down-to-earth team working towards a genuine and feel-good purpose.

This role is exclusive to Rebel so please apply for a guaranteed personal response or reach out to alex@rebelrecruiters.co.uk or 07458 160 412 for a confidential conversation about the role.

Software Development Manager

Data Engineering / Software Development Manager

Location: Remote – with occasional (once a month or so) travel into Warwickshire (your team is mainly UK remote).

Salary: £60 – £75k + 10% bonus, pension and healthcare

 

This company are sitting on a goldmine of data. Their customers are going crazy for it, and though they’ve been around for years, the international opportunity for their services is growing and, in many cases, completely untapped.

They have ambitious plans to offer their services to new markets and territories as well as develop new data-focused products.

They already have a very talented software engineering team, but you’ll be the person the developers look to for leadership. The one who, when a deadline needs to be hit, come into your own, leading the team, ensuring they have everything they need and that they enjoy the right balance of accountability and freedom to do what they do best.

In addition to managing the team, you will be responsible for delivering software projects, technical architecture, security and the ongoing integration of new technology and tooling.

You will join one of the country’s fastest-growing companies, but also one with a ‘green’ soul who is doing good in the world and helping us all towards a more sustainable future.

You’ll have a strong Cloud / Data-Engineering background using the Microsoft stack. You’ll appreciate Agile/DevOps best practices (inc. industry standard CI/CD tools), with experience in delivering systems built on MS Azure, along with an appreciation of containerisation using Docker and Kubernetes.

You may be working as a team leader, looking to take that first step into management, or are already a Data Engineering / Software Development Manager wanting to work somewhere more ambitious (the projects they have lined up might make you drool…if you’re into growth!).

Although not a huge company, they pack a punch for their size, investing in leading technologies (such as Mulesoft) and ensuring their developers have the best tools and kits to deliver amazing outcomes.

You’ll like a role where there’ll be pressure to get things done, but also lots of autonomy, where work-life balance is a real thing and where your boss is a great human being, and someone who will always look out for you.

You’ll be free to work from home with occasional (once a month or so) travel into Warwickshire (your team is mainly UK remote).

On offer is a salary of up to £60 – £75k + 10% bonus, pension and healthcare. And they will look after you once you join – people stick around here!
