Full Stack Software Engineer(s)
Salary: £75,000
Location: Edinburgh/Remote
 
Overview:
One of the great success stories of the Scottish start-up world are looking to hire 3 full-stack Software Engineers to help drive forward their groundbreaking data analytics software.
 
Their carefully curated, AWS-hosted Platform offers unrivaled competitive advantage to the investment industry, providing previously unachievable access to real-time market intelligence, uncovering previously unattainable insight, and at-a-glance sector analysis. This data-driven approach, harnessing the best in modern software engineering and data analysis, unlocks value and facilitates idea creation at scale.
 
You will be joining a great engineering culture defined by understanding, empathy, and collaboration. Senior Management are motivated by providing the most secure environment within which to excel, offering the chance to make a real impact on software design and platform development from day one.
 
Just as they have designed an industry-leading product by listening to their customers, they are constructing a people-first culture by listening to what their employees want and need. You will never just be a "cog in the wheel"; you will be a nurtured and respected human being.
 
We are looking for mid-level engineers to join the team, as well as Senior/Lead Engineers to lead new product development. They take a fairly flexible approach - "a good engineer is a good engineer" - so you could come from a JavaScript, C#, Java, Ruby or C++ background, but must be willing to work with:
 
  • Python
  • AWS (in particular DynamoDB)
  • React.js
  • CI/CD Pipelines
 
Key Skills:
 
  • A Solid Degree (2:1+) in a Computer Science or STEM subject
  • c.2/3 years experience for mid-level / 5+ years for Senior/Lead
  • Experience in OOP language (Python/Java/C#/C++)
  • Strong experience with web technologies (JS, TS, Django, Flask, React, etc.)
  • Experience in building scalable products for the cloud
  • Confidence in articulating ideas and opinions, and an ability to grasp high-level concepts as well as skills in writing clean, secure and robust code
 
They are set-up for remote working, and the exact balance of WFH/remote can be discussed on a case by case basis. The rough expectation would be c.2-3 weeks a year in their Edinburgh HQ.
 
If you think you have the skills and experience needed, why wait, when your career could be changing forever! Apply NOW with your latest CV or share this with the person you first think of!
