Job description

  • Total Autonomy: You aren't just a cog in a machine. You will shape the architecture, propose new features, and drive the technical direction of our entire stack.
  • True Full-Stack Variety: From background daemons and parallel computing to sleek front-end interfaces and AWS cloud orchestration.
  • A "Green" Culture: We walk the talk. We offer railcard reimbursements and even contribute to your home energy bills if you're on a renewable tariff.

The Tech Stack

We are a Flask house looking for a master of the MVT (Model-View-Template) structure. You'll be taking ownership of:

  • Backend: Python, Flask, Jinja2, SQLAlchemy.
  • Frontend: Vanilla JS (jQuery, AJAX), HTML5, CSS3.
  • Data & Infrastructure: PostgreSQL, Docker, and a deep AWS suite (ECS, RDS, VPC, Boto3).
  • The "Hard" Stuff: Parallel computing, background daemons, and orchestrating complex engineering algorithms., As our Senior Developer, you will lead the lifecycle of our cloud-based products from "napkin sketch" to enterprise deployment.
  • Architect: Design full system workflows, databases, and cloud infrastructure.
  • Build: Create background services to run optimization algorithms in parallel.
  • Innovate: Identify and scope new R&D opportunities and contribute to funding bids.
  • Lead: Manage external technical relationships and mentor the next generation of engineers.

Requirements

You are a developer who loves the "how" as much as the "what." You should bring:

  • Proven Experience: You've led the development of multiple complex web apps using Python/Flask and Jinja2.
  • Full-Stack Fluency: You're comfortable across the entire lifecycle-front-end, back-end, and AWS deployment.
  • Ownership Mentality: You enjoy taking a code base from an idea to a commercial-grade product.
  • Communication: You can translate complex technical specs into clear plans for stakeholders and subcontractors.

Bonus points if you have experience with GIS Mapping (OpenLayer), Kubernetes, or .Net Core.
