Software Engineer

Remote-First Software Engineer | Software Engineer | Software Engineer (UK)

  • Role: Software Engineer
  • Salary: £75,000 - £85,000
  • Working: Fully Remote
  • Tech: Typescript, NextJS, React
  • Attitude: Hungry to have a real impact

We're working with a remote-first UK tech company in the referral and word-of-mouth space that's hiring a Software Engineer to help drive a major shift toward product-led growth.

This Software Engineer role is built for people who value flexibility and autonomy. As a Software Engineer, you'll work remotely by default, come into the office only when it's useful, and be trusted to ship outcomes, not clock hours or wait for perfect specs.

What this Software Engineer will do

  • Build and ship product-led growth tools used by leading consumer brands
  • Work mainly with TypeScript, Next.js, and the React ecosystem
  • Take loosely defined problems and move fast from idea to production
  • Run rapid experiments - ideas on Monday, live by Wednesday attitude
  • Work across the stack when needed (frontend, backend, AWS, infra)
  • Regularly demo live features to the wider company

What they're looking for

  • A Software Engineer at strong mid → senior level (upper-mid ideal)
  • Front-end-leaning full-stack experience preferred
  • Comfortable in ambiguity, pace, and change
  • Bias toward shipping and learning over perfection
  • Low ego, curious, and happy to challenge ideas
  • Willing to consume some legacy PHP (but not live in it)

Why this role stands out

  • Truly remote-first: most engineers work remotely with ad-hoc office visits
  • Engineering is central to the company's strategy, not a support function
  • A genuine pivot moment: new leadership, new platform, new direction
  • Opportunity to help shape a Next.js + microservices future
  • High ownership, high visibility, and real influence on what gets built

Location

  • UK-based only (visa sponsorship not available)

If you're a Software Engineer who wants remote flexibility and meaningful impact, this is one worth exploring.
