About Hard Shoulder
Hard Shoulder is the UK app that gets drivers moving again. With a few taps, drivers, insurers, dealerships and fleet operators can book verified mobile tyre fitters, recovery trucks and vehicle transporters near them. We match each job by location and take payment in the app by card, Apple Pay, Google Wallet or Klarna.
We work nationwide across the UK and partner with insurance providers and businesses. We're a small, fast-moving remote team, and every person we hire shapes how the product and company grow.
Full-Stack / Mobile Engineer
Remote (UK) · Full-time · Mid–Senior · £55,000–£75,000 + share options
About the role
When someone's tyre blows on the motorway, our app has to work first time, quickly. You'll own features across our iOS and Android apps and the backend behind them, from the driver's booking flow to the app our fitters and recovery operators use. You'll be one of our first engineers, so you'll help decide how we build as well as what we build.
What you'll do
Reasons to use Rodeo
Start with a chat, not a search bar
Grad scheme, placement, apprenticeship? Not sure what you want yet — that's fine. Your agent talks it through with you and turns "I have no idea" into a shortlist.
It searches the market for you
Every day your agent scans the market matching roles against what actually matters to you, not just keywords on a CV.
