Role: Full Stack TypeScript & Python Software Engineer
Salary: up to £70k
Location: Fully remote/ remote first. They have no office!
Would you like to use your tech skills to help reduce the damaging impact of transportation on the climate crisis?
Then this role and company might just well be what you’ve been looking for!
I am looking for a Full Stack Software Engineer, with a specialism in Python and TypeScript (Node) and web development.
You will be going into a small, but growing, company and team; there are 2 developers there currently and around 10-15 people in the company as a whole. They are a talented and caring bunch of people from diverse backgrounds, who love what they do and believe strongly in the company’s mission.
Data IS the company’s product. They use it to augment behaviours within the transportation sector to reduce fuel costs and usage; helping the companies they work with to save money and, most importantly, to have a significant, positive impact on the environment.
Due to the nature of the business, having a strong passion for data would be a major advantage! SQL skills around data modelling, CRUD ops, etc would be beneficial.
As they are a start-up, they have virtually no tech debt, all their projects are greenfield; making this a veritable utopia for developers! They always endeavour to improve a system before building new features on it; something that I’ve not seen many other companies do. And that speaks volumes about their general approach to their tech – sustainability, efficiency, and scalability are paramount.
To give you an idea of what you can expect to be doing in this role; you will, amongst other things, be tasked with the Design, build, and maintenance of multiple parts of the product, including; their customer-facing web app, backend systems, databases, microservices, third-party APIs, and servers in the cloud.
It would be really useful if you’ve worked in a cloud environment previously, with DevOps processes in place; taking part in interacting with the cloud, using CI/ CD pipelines for deployment through to production. It doesn’t matter which cloud you’ve used before- GCP/ Azure or AWS, but they use AWS, so this would be the most pertinent for this role.
They like to have good debates and technical conversations around best practices and how they can continuously improve how they do things, so if you’re the type of person to have strong views on these kinds of things- with enough humility to have your mind changed, and accept where other peoples’ ideas might be a better solution for the problem at hand- then you’ll fit right in!
They all work entirely remotely and don’t have an office, so you’ll need to be happy and able to comfortably work from home. They do like to socialise though! So in-person meetup suggestions- perhaps in a hot desk environment or a meeting for a coffee, would be welcomed.
If this sounds right up your street, then please get in touch to find out more, or apply today!
