Software Engineer

Company

I’m delighted to be partnering with an award-winning technology business that has built an exceptional reputation for innovation, product quality, and employee experience. This organisation develops high-scale, data-driven digital products used by major global brands and continues to experience strong growth across the UK and internationally.

With a people-first culture, genuine investment in professional development, and a modern hybrid working model, this is an outstanding opportunity to join a company that not only values technical excellence but also prioritises wellbeing, collaboration, and long-term career progression.

Role

We are seeking a talented Software Engineer to join a dynamic, cross-functional product and engineering team. This role offers the chance to work on high-traffic, customer-facing digital products while using modern technologies and best-practice engineering principles.

You’ll be involved across the full development lifecycle—designing, building, and deploying high-performance web applications. While the role is predominantly development-focused (approximately 80%), you will also gain exposure to light DevOps and cloud engineering (approximately 20%) within a Google Cloud environment.

The stack includes modern TypeScript, React, and next-generation backend frameworks, with opportunities to work across serverless cloud, CI/CD, and scalable architectural patterns. Prior experience in all these areas is not essential—an openness to learn and contribute is what matters most.

Salary: Up to £55,000 depending on experience Working model: Hybrid—2 days per week onsite in Newcastle-upon-Tyne

Desirable Experience
  • Exposure to functional programming
