Job description

We're partnering with a fast-growing UK SaaS business that's building a cutting-edge, cloud-native platform used at the heart of multiple major utility companies across the country.

This is genuine greenfield work - no Legacy systems, no duct tape, no tech debt holding you back.

Think: ? Building the digital core of next-generation power & utility companies ? High-impact engineering that touches millions of customers ? Modern tech, modern practices, modern culture

If you're a Python developer who craves real technical ownership, this is your playground.

????? The Role - Software Developer

Whether you're a budding Junior or a seasoned Senior, there's room for you here.

You'll be building and owning features end-to-end across a modern, cloud-native stack - working with a highly capable engineering team who care about quality, design principles, and doing things the right way.

You'll be doing things like:

Designing and developing scalable Back End systems in Python
Building clean, intuitive front-ends with React & TypeScript
Creating and optimising APIs using FastAPI
Contributing to architectural discussions and greenfield system design
Working hands-on with GCP, CI/CD pipelines, microservices & containerised deployments
Collaborating in a remote-first, engineering-led environment
