Senior Full Stack Developer at Car Finance 247
A Senior Full Stack Developer at Car Finance 247 is a passionate, backend-leaning technologist with a strong interest in modern web technologies and best practices. You’ll have advanced experience with Vue 3 and its associated ecosystem, TypeScript, and Node, and be comfortable working with SQL – and because we use generative AI to design and maintain much of the UI, your deepest work will be on the server side.
This role is ideal for a senior engineer who enjoys owning their work end-to-end, from shaping solutions and making architectural decisions through to delivery and ongoing improvement. You’re a self-starter, equally effective working independently or as part of the team. You care deeply about code quality, performance, and maintainability, and you’re motivated by building things the right way, not just the fastest way. You’ll thrive in an environment that values clear thinking, thoughtful collaboration, and meaningful outcomes over simply shipping tickets.
You’ll be building ArcaneAI, our CRM SaaS platform, from the ground up – designing and building APIs and services in Node, modelling data in SQL, and shipping features end to end. We build on the Cloudflare developer platform (Workers, Pages, D1, KV, and Queues), so experience there is ideal, though a background in other cloud architecture such as Azure works just as well. There’s a strong emphasis on clean architecture, automated testing, and continuous delivery, with plenty of opportunity to influence technical direction from day one.
We’re an AI-first team, so using generative AI to supercharge the development process is a must – from designing and maintaining UI through to writing, testing, and improving code. For the right person there’s real headroom here too: progression to Technical Lead is a genuine possibility given proven success. In return, you’ll be supported to develop your skills, explore new technologies, and grow your career within a team that genuinely values quality, curiosity, and continuous improvement.
Our Software Engineers don’t just write code – they actively shape the features and platforms they work on. From initial concept through to production, you’ll take ownership of your work, contributing to design, architecture, and delivery to create meaningful, high-quality solutions.
