This is an opportunity to join a high-performing engineering team where you will play a key role in delivering modern, reliable software across multiple products. If you enjoy a mixture of hands-on coding, technical ownership and helping others grow, this role is an excellent fit.

You will work within a fast-paced, product-led environment that is modernising operationally critical systems. As a Full Stack Engineer, you will contribute across a variety of codebases, support team goals, and take responsibility for delivering high-quality features from design through to implementation. You will help shape engineering practices, mentor junior engineers and ensure the systems you build are observable, secure and performant.

If you want a role that offers both technical depth and the ability to influence how engineering is done, this is a strong next step in your career.

What you will be working on

You will work across frontend and backend systems, contributing to a range of features and engineering projects. Your work will include planned delivery as well as occasionally stepping in to handle urgent issues that unblock the wider team.

You will have the opportunity to:

• Lead the technical implementation of typical engineering projects, ensuring high-quality, timely delivery.
• Work across multiple codebases and technologies depending on team priorities.
• Build observability into the applications you develop, including health checks, dashboards and alerting.
• Address performance and security issues proactively, helping reduce technical debt.
• Improve engineering practices and contribute to proposals within the Engineering Guild.
• Break down work, spot conflicts early and support the team in staying aligned.
• Share knowledge through documentation, pairing and onboarding support.

This role offers a mix of independent work, collaborative problem solving and technical contribution beyond your immediate team.

Technology environment

The engineering environment is modern, JavaScript– and TypeScript-focused, with strong expectations around code quality, observability and secure practices.

Frontend

React, TypeScript, shared component libraries, design systems and accessible UI principles.

Backend

with TypeScript, REST APIs, SQL and NoSQL databases, and integrations with internal and external services.

Infrastructure and tooling

Modern CI/CD, observability tooling, automated tests and best practice SDLC processes.

What you will bring

This role suits a Full Stack Engineer who is confident in leading typical engineering projects while remaining hands-on and collaborative.

You should bring:

• Proven ability to take an engineering project from design through to implementation.
• Experience working across multiple codebases as part of a product-focused engineering team.
• Strong full-stack skills, ideally with JavaScript/TypeScript, and React.
• Solid knowledge of SQL and/or NoSQL databases and integration patterns.
• Familiarity with testing, observability, debugging and building secure, performant systems.
• The ability to communicate clearly and explain technical concepts to different audiences.
• A collaborative, empathetic approach, with a focus on team success and knowledge sharing.
• Commercial awareness and the ability to assess technical trade-offs.

The impact you will have

In this role, you will:

• Deliver reliable, high-quality features that support real users.
• Improve engineering practices and contribute to wider technical standards.
• Mentor junior engineers and help raise the overall capability of the team.
• Build systems that are observable, secure and maintainable over time.
• Identify technical risks early and communicate them clearly.
• Run well-structured meetings, contribute to design discussions and support a no-blame culture.
• Help unblock teammates by providing context, guidance or taking on urgent work when needed.

Working pattern

The role is hybrid with a requirement to be in the Maidenhead office for at least three days per week.

Next steps

Interviews are being arranged now, and strong candidates can expect a smooth, clear process. If you are looking for a role that offers technical variety, meaningful ownership and the chance to influence the way engineering is done, this is a great time to apply.
