A fast-growing, tech-first climate company is looking for a Lead Full Stack Engineer to join its core engineering team and help shape the future of clean home energy in the UK. This is a hands-on leadership role. You'll still write meaningful amounts of code, while also setting technical direction, mentoring engineers, and working closely with product and design to ensure the right things are built at the right time.

  • Identifying scaling risks, bottlenecks, and technical debt and driving solutions
  • Mentoring engineers and developing technical leadership within the team

  • TypeScript, JavaScript
  • React, Tailwind, Konva
  • Node.js, Prisma
  • PostgreSQL, PostGIS
  • Docker, Docker Compose

Essential experience

  • Strong experience with modern JavaScript/TypeScript
  • Full stack development experience (Front End, Back End, APIs)
  • Relational databases and data modelling
  • Solving ambiguous, real-world problems end to end
  • Mentoring others or contributing to healthy engineering teams

More importantly, you are

  • Product-minded and curious about real user problems
  • Impact-driven, balancing quality with momentum
  • Comfortable with ownership and accountability

What's on offer

  • Competitive salary plus meaningful equity (options)
  • 33 days holiday + up to 30 days working abroad per year

  • Fortnightly full-team meetups with paid travel, accommodation, and dinner
