## Description

If you've spent evenings and weekends building your own apps, tools or side projects simply because you wanted to, this is worth a read. You'll join a small engineering team working across the full stack, picking up real features from day one rather than sitting through a long graduate scheme. You'll work closely with the founders and senior engineers, so you'll see how product decisions get made and have a say in them. People who thrive here are curious, self-starting and happy to own a problem from idea through to release., * Build and ship features across the front end and back end using React, TypeScript and Node

 * Own small parts of the product end to end, from first idea to release
 * Collaborate with the founders on what to build next and why
 * Write clean, tested code and take part in code reviews
 * Fix bugs and improve performance based on real user feedback
 * Prototype new ideas quickly to test whether they're worth pursuing
 * Contribute to technical decisions as the product and team grow
 * Learn from senior engineers and share what you pick up with the team
