UK, UK, United Kingdom Ambue Full time

Junior Full Stack Developer (Front End Bias)


Duration: 12 months fixed term (potential for 3 month extension)

Location: Fully Remote (UK based), with some in-person and project meetups.


About Us

At Ambue, we’re on a mission to simplify, predict, and streamline the retrofit of the UK’s housing stock through technology. Our bespoke software empowers social housing providers to enhance the energy efficiency of their portfolios.

We’re hiring a Junior Developer to work with our Senior Data Engineer, Lead Graph Engineer and Product team on an Innovate UK funded R&D initiative. The project aims to deliver 300,000 retrofits annually, scaling up to one million by 2030. Our major industry partners include BRE, MTC, TATA, and Energiesprong UK. This ambitious endeavour involves creating new digital tools for portfolio assessment, typology categorisation, demand aggregation, risk quantification, and standardisation. To execute this vision, we’ll establish a community interest company.


The Role

As part of Ambue’s Special Projects division, you’ll contribute to the software and front-end interface design for this R&D project. Key objectives include integration of various data sources, graph database algorithm outputs, along with 3rd party geospatial data and present these intuitively to a variety of user types. We are seeking to provide value to our users through the ability to easily analyse and manage very large property portfolios, project pipelines, and product selections.

Ambue’s core software stack is built using functional programming languages and paradigms however, given the fast pace, R&D nature of this project, we are working with a more flexible software stack to achieve rapid iteration and solution testing with key user groups. The project leverages a combination of Python, JavaScript/TypeScript, FastAPI, and Neo4j, with a front end currently wireframed in HTML/bootstrap. We’re looking for someone who has broad experience in these technologies and working with the presentation of geospatial data. Candidates with an understanding of the functional paradigms we use in of core stack will also be beneficial for integration.

The final deliverables will include a functional alpha platform to support retrofit at scale with a comprehensive specification for the beta release.

Our stretch goal is to progress the beta version for use by the wider project delivery team.
