Full Stack Engineer
Mid–Senior Level | Manchester | Hybrid – 3 Days On-Site
We’re partnering with an ambitious, product-led Manchester technology start-up that has achieved product-market fit and is entering an exciting new phase of growth. Its technology connects consumers with service providers, creating a simpler and more intuitive experience for both sides of the marketplace.
The business is now looking for a hands-on Full Stack Engineer who can work confidently across the front and back end, take ownership of features and turn ideas into well-built customer-facing products.
You’ll work closely with the Founding Engineer and company founders, taking features from initial idea and exploration through to build, launch and iteration. As an early, senior-leaning member of the engineering team, you’ll have genuine influence over technical decisions, engineering standards and how the product evolves as the business scales.
Key Responsibilities
- Build clean, maintainable and well-tested software using React, Node.js and JavaScript/TypeScript
- Own features across the full development lifecycle, from idea through to launch
- Improve the product using customer feedback, user behaviour and performance data
- Manage integrations with payment providers, app stores, calendars and email platforms
- Oversee infrastructure and contribute to CI/CD pipelines
- Make pragmatic decisions around architecture, technical debt and build versus buy
- Maintain strong standards around security and data protection
- Participate in lightweight sprint planning, refinement and retrospectives
- Collaborate closely with founders, designers, customers and other stakeholders
