Job Title: 2 x Software Engineers (Mid-Level)
Location: Remote (UK-based, ideally London or South England)
Reporting to: Engineering Lead
Type: Permanent, Remote
Salary Range: £50,000 – £60,000

Overview
We are seeking two motivated mid-level full-stack engineers to join a collaborative and pragmatic team. This role is ideal for developers with a few years of hands-on experience who are ready to take ownership of their work, grow their skills, and contribute to building and improving a modern underwriting platform. You’ll work on a mix of feature development and system enhancements, from small fixes to full-scale new functionality, in an environment that values autonomy, learning, and practical problem-solving.

Key Responsibilities
  • Develop and enhance the underwriting platform for both new and existing clients.
  • Work across the full stack, including frontend (React) and backend (Go / Node.js / TypeScript).
  • Collaborate with developers, product managers, and QA teams to deliver reliable, user-focused features.
  • Maintain consistent UI and UX standards across applications.
  • Troubleshoot, diagnose, and resolve production issues effectively.

What We’re Looking For
Essential Skills & Experience
  • 2–4 years of professional software development experience.
  • Confident working as a full-stack engineer across frontend, backend, and databases.
  • Strong practical experience with React.
  • Proficient in at least one backend language: Go, Node.js, or TypeScript.
  • Comfortable with RESTful APIs, CRUD development, and Git-based version control.
  • Clear communicator, proactive problem solver, and effective collaborator.
Desirable Skills
  • Experience deploying and iterating safely in production environments.
  • Knowledge of relational databases (e.g. PostgreSQL).
  • Familiarity with Unix tools, containerisation, and Kubernetes.
  • Experience conducting code reviews or pair programming.
  • Exposure to geospatial data.
  • Ability to explain complex technical concepts clearly and simply.

Working Style / Culture Fit
You’ll thrive in this environment if you:
  • Enjoy autonomy, responsibility, and end-to-end problem-solving.
  • Balance speed with long-term, maintainable design.
  • Value open, honest communication over unnecessary process.
  • Appreciate pragmatic decisions and continuous improvement.
  • Are curious, collaborative, and motivated to deliver meaningful work.
This role is best suited to someone who values a close-knit, hands-on team environment rather than rigid structures or narrowly defined tasks.

Technical Stack
  • Frontend: React, TypeScript
  • Backend: Go, Node.js
  • Database: PostgreSQL
  • Infrastructure: Docker, Kubernetes

What You’ll Gain
  • The opportunity to work on impactful, customer-driven software projects.
  • Freedom to shape how software is designed, built, and deployed.
  • Ongoing support for technical and professional development within a collaborative, growth-oriented team.
