The role involves building AI-powered products that change how organisations manage procurement and document data.

You'll work closely with product, design and data teams, influence technical decisions and help shape engineering best practices across the platform. If you want ownership of real technical challenges rather than just tickets to close, this is the kind of role where that's possible.

What you'll need

  • Strong commercial experience as a Lead or Senior Full Stack Developer
  • Deep expertise in PHP and Laravel
  • Front end experience with React.js or Laravel Nova
  • Experience designing and building scalable APIs and cloud-native applications
  • Strong AWS experience
  • Experience integrating LLMs, AI services or orchestration frameworks into production systems
