Full Stack Engineer

We’re also building a new generation of AI-powered analytics and diagnostic tools, incorporating technologies like OpenAI and modern frontend infrastructure. We’re looking for a pragmatic, product-minded Full Stack Engineer to help evolve and maintain the Zuko platform. This is a high-impact role where you’ll take ownership of meaningful parts of the system (not just implement tickets). You’ll work closely with a fractional senior technical lead and senior management of the company, but day-to-day you’ll be expected to drive work forward independently. This role is ideal for someone who:

• Enjoys solving real-world problems end-to-end
• Is comfortable navigating existing systems and improving them
• Doesn’t wait to be told what to do

What You’ll Be Working On Core Platform Our platform includes:

• React frontend
• Ruby on Rails API layer
• Event ingestion pipeline (Node.js + AWS ECS)
• Real-time data processing using Kinesis, Lambda, Redis, and OpenSearch
• AWS-based infrastructure (CloudFront, S3, Aurora, etc.)

You’ll contribute across the stack - from UI improvements to backend performance and data pipeline reliability. New Product Development We’re also building new products using:

• Vercel
• OpenAI integrations
• Automation tooling (e.g. Skyvern, trigger.dev)

You’ll have the opportunity to work on these from an early stage and help shape how they evolve., * Take ownership of features and systems from idea to production

• Improve and maintain our core platform and data pipeline
• Build new product features across frontend and backend
• Identify and fix issues proactively (performance, reliability, UX)
• Work with our fractional senior lead on architecture and technical direction
• Contribute to simplifying and strengthening the platform over time

• Solid experience as a full stack engineer (mid-level or above)
• Strong JavaScript/TypeScript experience (React ideally)
• Backend experience (Ruby, Node.js, or similar)
• Comfortable working with APIs, databases, and cloud infrastructure
• Experience with AWS or similar cloud platforms

Mindset (Critical for This Role)

• Ownership mentality - you take responsibility for outcomes, not just tasks
• Self-directed - you can figure things out without heavy guidance
• Pragmatic - you balance speed and quality effectively
• Curious - you ask “why” and look to improve things
• Comfortable working in a small, evolving team

Nice to Have

• Experience with data pipelines or event-driven systems
• Familiarity with Redis, OpenSearch/Elasticsearch, or Kinesis
• Experience with AI/LLM integrations (e.g. OpenAI)
• Experience working with early-stage or scaling SaaS products

Working Setup

• Flexible working (full-time or part-time considered)
• Predominantly working from home with occasional-face to-face days
• Remote-friendly (UK-based preferred; North West ideal but not required)
• Small, collaborative team

As well as the opportunity to work for an exciting tech company we offer:

• Flexible working hours.
• Competitive salary dependent on experience.
• Monthly wellbeing stipend to spend on something that benefits your mental or bodily health.
• Autonomy, ownership and a flat management structure mean your opinions will be listened to and you’ll have a big impact from the start.
• Your ideas to be taken seriously and valued, and have your input directly affect the future of our company.
• To have the space and autonomy to manage your own workload and priorities, and be able to enact your ideas and improve on our current way of doing things.
• A high level of company transparency - company profit and loss, budgets and more are all shared in our open and honest working environment.
• A close-knit, focussed and productive team.
• Working with household name brands like Experian and Capital One as well as clients based across the world.
• All the incredible experiences of working at an agile technology company - dizzying highs, and buckle-down-lows, but never boring.
