Areti Group is partnering with a high-growth, Series A startup that’s scaling at serious pace — 20+ hires planned in the next 3 months.

We’re looking for exceptional Tech Leads to take ownership of a core API Platform Team, driving the transition from legacy systems into a modern, scalable, API-first architecture — with a key shift from PHP into Golang.

✅ The Essentials 💻 Fully Remote (UK-based) ✈️ Monthly on-site collaboration (fully expensed) ⚡ Fast process: interview → offer within 3 days

💡 Why This Role Stands Out ✔️ True Tech Lead role (≈70% hands-on / 30% leadership) ✔️ Major tech evolution – moving from PHP → Golang ✔️ Own the architecture of a high-scale API platform ✔️ High-impact work in a fast-growing startup ✔️ Strong engineering culture – collaborative, pragmatic, product-focused ✔️ Real influence on technical direction, standards & delivery

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.
