Caura.com is an £8.8M-funded London startup backed by Lloyds Banking Group and Jaguar Land Rover’s InMotion Ventures, 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.

- Work alongside seasoned operators who have successfully exited startups, offering a unique environment for professional growth and high-impact engineering leadership.
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.
Only hits
No noise. No "maybe this fits." Just roles with a clear explanation of why they're right — and where to focus when applying.
What You Will Do
- Architect and maintain robust, event-driven microservices using TypeScript, Node.js, and AWS services like ECS, Lambda, and EventBridge.
- Collaborate cross-functionally with product and design to turn complex car-management workflows into seamless, scalable, and secure customer-facing features.
- Develop critical internal tooling and API integrations that form the backbone of the company’s operations and support major enterprise partnerships.
The ideal candidate
- Deep production experience building and owning distributed systems and RESTful APIs specifically with TypeScript and Node.js.
- Proven hands-on expertise with AWS infrastructure, including event-driven architectures, serverless functions, and container orchestration.
- A "scrappy builder" mindset with a history of working in fast-paced startup environments and the legal right to work in the UK.

We never post fake jobs
This isn't a trick. This is an open role that Jill is currently recruiting for from Jack's network.
Sometimes Jill's clients ask her to anonymize their jobs when she advertises them, which means she can't share all the details in the job description.
We appreciate this can make them look a bit suspect, but there isn't much we can do about it.
Give Jack a spin! You could land this role. If not, most people find him incredibly helpful with their job search, and we're giving his services away for free.
