Full Stack Engineer (Laravel/Vue.js) in Alderley Edge, Cheshire

CoComply is building AI-Native Services Governance — the control layer that brings services spend under management at major corporations, typically with 500 - 5,000 employees. Services spend (consultants, contractors, agencies, statement-of-work suppliers) is the second-largest line on the corporate P&L after payroll, and the least well-governed.

CoComply is hiring a full stack engineer to join a small, experienced founding engineering team. We’re looking for someone who can genuinely contribute from day one alongside existing engineers. Our day-to-day combines conventional full stack engineering (PHP/Laravel, Vue.js, TypeScript) with heavy use of AI coding tools and agentic workflows. Hands-on, practical experience with AI-assisted development (Claude Code, Codex etc) is a requirement for this role.

We value engineers with a strong commercial product mindset. We want people who can weigh a refactor against shipping a new feature and make the right call for the business. If your instinct is to improve code quality only when it actually moves the needle, you’ll feel at home.

The candidate should possess a deep understanding of modern software engineering technologies and practices as well as excellent soft skills.

• Contribute as a core member of a small, close-knit founding engineering team focused on shipping value to customers at speed.
• Develop and maintain web applications using PHP/Laravel, TypeScript, Vue.js and related web technologies.
• Use AI-assisted coding tools (e.g. Claude Code, Codex, Cursor, Gemini) as part of your everyday workflow.
• Design, build and extend agentic features and LLM-backed workflows within the product.
• Solve for the user with frictionless UX and clean UI design.
• Contribute across the full software development lifecycle: planning, requirements, build, test and deployment.
• Write clean, well-documented, well-tested code and uphold our existing standards across a codebase with over 12k automated tests.
• Help shape our engineering practices, patterns and internal documentation as the team grows.
• Implement security and data protection measures.
• Stay current with developments in AI tooling, agentic systems and modern web engineering.

• Hands-on, practical experience using AI coding assistants (Claude Code, Codex, Cursor, Gemini or similar) on real, production-quality work.
• Working understanding of agents, tool/function calling and how LLM-integrated systems fit together.
• Commercial product mindset. Able to prioritise pragmatically between delivery, maintenance and refactoring based on the needs of the business.
• Strong proficiency in PHP, JavaScript, TypeScript, HTML and CSS.
• Demonstrable experience with Laravel and Vue, or comparable frameworks.
• Solid testing experience across the pyramid (unit, integration and end-to-end).
• Experience with AWS services such as EC2, S3, RDS and CI/CD.
• Experience working with relational databases and debugging real-world performance issues.
• Familiarity with Git and modern code review workflows.
• Experience building applications end-to-end.
• Track record of meaningful tenure in previous roles.
• Excellent problem-solving skills and attention to detail.
• Good communication and collaboration skills.

• Production experience building with agents, tool calling or LLM orchestration.
• A background in lawtech/legaltech or other regulated domains.
• Programming in Python.
• Deeper experience with LLMs, RAG techniques and evaluation.
• Knowledge of Docker, containerisation and serverless technologies.
• AWS Certification is a plus.

• Bachelor’s degree in Computer Science, Information Technology, or a related field is preferred.
• 4+ years as a full stack engineer working across a modern web stack is required.

• 30-min intro screen with CTO + Senior Engineer.
• 60 to 90 min technical working session (remote) with CTO + Senior Engineer.
• Final round in person at Alderley Park, combining a 60-min technical conversation with CTO + Senior Engineer and a 1hr Culture & Values interview with CEO.
• Offer.
