The Opportunity

• Mentor colleagues, supporting their growth through reviews, pair programming, and open collaboration.
• Partner with product and design teams to align technical solutions with business goals.
• Ensure security best practices are embedded throughout.

What You’ll Bring

• A generalist mindset, comfortable moving across technologies and frameworks.
• Strong AWS and Go experience (React knowledge is a plus).
• A passion for problem-solving and tackling challenges that don’t have straightforward answers.
• Excitement for working in an early-stage product environment where you can help shape architecture and ways of working.
• Adaptability, ownership, and a collaborative nature.

What’s on Offer
