Senior Software Engineer
Company Description
Caura.com is an £8.8M-funded London startup backed by Lloyds Banking Group, Jaguar Land Rover’s InMotion Ventures, and other investors, building the UK’s all-in-one car management platform.
Job Description
You will own and elevate Caura.com’s backend platform, architecting scalable distributed systems that serve millions of UK drivers and major partners like Lloyds and Motorway. Working in a small team of experienced startup veterans, you’ll bridge the gap between product vision and secure, event-driven infrastructure using TypeScript, Node.js, and AWS.
Location: London, UK
Why this role is remarkable
- Join a high-growth scale-up founded by an ex-Apple executive and backed by prestigious investors (including TwinFocus, Quiet Capital, and the founder of Shutterstock).
- Build the infrastructure behind a 4.8-star app, trusted by tens of thousands of drivers to manage insurance, tolls, and maintenance in one place.
- Collaborate with seasoned operators who have successfully exited startups, offering unique growth opportunities and high-impact engineering leadership.
