Team Overview & The Role
We are looking for a passionate Engineer to join our cross‑functional squad in London. While the role has a strong front‑end focus, we are an AI‑first engineering organization. The ideal candidate uses agentic AI tools as a force multiplier and is comfortable flexing to tackle backend tasks (Kotlin/Spring) when squad priorities shift.
Core Responsibilities
- Feature Development: Build, test, and optimize highly scalable, user‑oriented features for our client‑facing web applications.
- Full Stack Adaptability: Take ownership of domain software, contributing to our event‑driven microservices platform when backend support is needed.
- AI Engineering: Leverage agentic coding tools (e.g., Claude Code) across the full development lifecycle, reviewing and hardening AI‑generated outputs to maintain rigorous quality standards.
- Agile Delivery: Collaborate in a two‑week delivery window to plan, develop, and release secure, cost‑efficient features.
What You Bring
- AI‑Assisted Workflow: Daily practical experience with AI‑assisted or agentic development tools, with the engineering judgment needed to audit and refine AI outputs.
- Modern Engineering Practices: Familiarity with TDD principles, clean architecture concepts, and consuming APIs (e.g., GraphQL).
- Mindset: An independent, critical thinker who thrives in collaborative, small‑team environments and values continuous feedback.
Bonus Points
- Backend development experience in Java or Kotlin (ideally SpringBoot).
- Understanding of microservices, database concepts (RDBMS/PostgreSQL), and event‑driven architectures (Kafka).
- Familiarity with containerization (Docker) or cloud deployments (AWS/Kubernetes).
Location & Ways of Working
Hybrid Model: London‑based with a hybrid policy requiring 2 days per week in our London Office.
What We Offer (Benefits)
- Health & Wellbeing: Private healthcare through Vitality (including 50% off premium gym memberships) and an Employee Assistance Programme.
- True Time Off: 25 days of annual leave where we expect you to fully unplug—no booking leave required for quick life appointments.
- Financial Future: 3% standard employer pension contribution, with enhanced company matches available via salary sacrifice.
- Environment: A welcoming, dog‑friendly office with break‑out spaces and silent booths, alongside regular, well‑balanced team socials.
- Extra Perks: Electric car schemes, family‑friendly policies, and support towards professional qualifications.
