About the role

As Software Developer and a prototyping engineer where you build and maintain the web applications and backend services behind digital platform, working across the stack from Python-based services to the interfaces our customers and field teams use.

You report to the Head of Software and work closely with Front End Developers on integrating user-facing elements with server-side logic, and with the wider engineering team on the platforms our AI/ML models and IoT devices depend on.

This is a broad, hands-on development role in a small team you’ll work across the full software development lifecycle and see your work reach production quickly.

What you’ll be doing

• Design, develop and deploy robust, scalable web applications and services using Python and related frameworks.
• Write clean, efficient, well-documented code that meets the team’s engineering standards.
• Collaborate with Front End Developers to integrate user-facing elements with server-side logic and APIs.
• Test and debug thoroughly to ensure the quality and reliability of what you build.
• Troubleshoot and resolve issues raised by the team or by Customer Experience & Operations.
• Maintain and support existing applications, including performance optimisation.
• Contribute ideas on architecture, tooling and process as the engineering team grows.
• Stay current with software engineering practice relevant to our platform.

You’ll ideally have:

• A degree in Computer Science, Software Engineering or a related field, or equivalent practical experience.
• Strong understanding of Python and common frameworks (e.g. Django, Flask).
• Familiarity with front-end technologies (React, HTML, CSS, JavaScript) sufficient to work across the stack.
• Basic knowledge of database systems and SQL.
• Proficient with version control (Git) and modern development workflows.

It would be great if you also have:

• Knowledge of AI/ML for computer vision or data analytics.
• Experience with cloud computing and databases.
• Familiarity with IoT communication protocols (MQTT, HTTP) or edge devices.
• Firmware development experience.

The successful candidate will be:

• Versatile, comfortable moving across the stack as needed.
• A persistent problem-solver.
• Collaborative and communicative with both technical and non-technical colleagues.
• Flexible and willing to adapt priorities as the team’s needs change.
