Job openings

Full-Stack Software Engineer | Cardiff (mostly remote) | £50,000-£60,000 per annum + bonus

We're hiring a full-stack engineer for a small Cardiff-based SaaS business. Self-funded, profitable, paying customers and growing. The team is small enough that the person we hire will be in the room when product decisions get made.

This is a hands-on engineering role across the full stack, with real ownership of the cloud infrastructure that keeps the product running. If you've spent the last couple of years writing production code and want a role with more scope than a big-company ticket queue, this is worth a look.

The stack Node on the back end, React with TypeScript on the front, PostgreSQL, hosted on AWS using ECS, RDS and S3.

What you'll be doing

• Building features end-to-end, from database schema through to UI

• Owning deployments and the cloud infrastructure that runs them

• Working directly with the people deciding what the product does next

• Pairing with a small team where your code review actually gets read

What we're looking for

• Around 2-4 years of commercial development experience

• Comfortable across front and back end, with a stronger lean toward the back

• Solid relational database skills

• Hands-on experience building or running things on AWS, Azure or GCP

• The kind of engineer who reads other people's code carefully and asks good questions

• To discuss anything you've built outside of work that you'd want to talk about

Nice to have

• Experience with APIs and third-party integrations

• Infrastructure-as-code (Terraform, CDK, Bicep)

• CI/CD pipeline experience

The package

• £50,000 to £60,000 depending on experience

• Pension and bonus

• 35-hour week with genuine flexibility

• One day a week in the Cardiff office

• A direct line to the people running the business
