Job description

We're looking for a Python Software Developer to join the Labman.One team - a next-generation platform being built to support advanced laboratory automation systems.

This is an opportunity to work on a new, evolving platform with real ownership and impact, combining the pace of a product environment with the backing of an established engineering company delivering systems globally.

You'll be involved in more than just development - contributing to technical design, problem solving, architecture, and collaborating closely with engineers, stakeholders, and end users. This is ideal for someone who enjoys taking ownership, working through ambiguity, and shaping software from early ideas through to deployment.

What You'll Do

  • Build and develop the Labman.One platform using Python and Django
  • Develop backend systems, APIs, and integration services
  • Design scalable services and contribute to platform architecture
  • Work with PostgreSQL and Django ORM for data modelling
  • Write clean, maintainable, and well-tested code
  • Contribute to technical decisions, standards, and best practices
  • Collaborate with engineers, users, and stakeholders
  • Investigate new technologies and prototype solutions
  • Take ownership of features from concept through to delivery
  • Work within Git-based workflows using pull requests and code reviews
  • Use AI-assisted development tools where appropriate

Requirements

Do you have experience in Vue.js?, * Strong commercial experience with Python development

  • Experience building backend systems or applications
  • Experience with Django (or similar frameworks)
  • Solid understanding of relational databases (PostgreSQL / MySQL)
  • Experience with REST APIs and integrations
  • Experience writing automated tests
  • Good understanding of version control (Git) and collaborative workflows
  • Strong problem-solving skills and ability to work independently
  • Clear communication with both technical and non-technical stakeholders
  • Comfortable working in a fast-moving, evolving environment

Desirable

  • Experience with Docker or containerised environments
  • Experience with async tools (Celery, RQ, etc.)
  • Exposure to Azure or cloud platforms
  • Frontend experience (React, Vue, Tailwind, etc.)
  • Experience in automation, robotics, or scientific environments
  • Experience using AI development tools (e.g. Copilot, Claude, Cursor)

Benefits & conditions
