Job description

This is a great opportunity for an early-career engineer to develop within a genuine product team, working on software used daily by customers across the UK. You’ll be mentored by more senior engineers while getting hands-on with real features, not just internal projects. The tech stack is flexible - Python, JavaScript, or similar - so this suits someone with solid fundamentals rather than deep specialism in one language.

What You’ll Be Doing

  • Write, test, and maintain code across the product under senior guidance
  • Fix bugs and contribute to feature development
  • Participate in code reviews and take feedback on board
  • Work with product and engineering colleagues to understand requirements
  • Build understanding of the wider codebase and architecture over time
  • Support testing and quality checks ahead of releases
  • Learn and apply the team’s engineering standards and practices
  • Ask questions and build technical judgement through mentorship

Requirements

Essential:

  • A relevant degree (Computer Science or similar) or equivalent hands-on project experience
  • Solid understanding of at least one modern language (Python, JavaScript, or similar)
  • Genuine interest in software engineering as a career, evidenced by personal projects, internships, or coursework
  • Willingness to learn and take direction from senior engineers
  • Good communication skills

Desirable:

  • Some exposure to web frameworks (e.g. Django, Flask, React, Node)
  • Familiarity with Git and basic CI/CD concepts
  • Any placement, internship, or junior commercial experience

Benefits & conditions

  • Salary £28,000 - £32,000 per annum
  • Structured mentorship within a growing engineering team
  • Real product exposure from day one, not just internal tooling
  • Stability of an established, profitable SaaS company with national customer reach
