Senior Software Engineer

Senior Software Engineer Location: UK Remote / Hybrid Salary: up to £80,000
ABOUT THE COMPANY
Financial Times' fastest-growing software company in Europe, this is an AI and automation platform — used by thousands of people, every single working day. Founded in 2020, they've grown to 90 people and were voted one of The Sunday Times' Best Places to Work. They're not slowing down.
The engineering team is small enough that your decisions matter, large enough that you're not doing it alone.
THE ROLE
This is a senior, hands-on engineering role — not a stepping stone to management, though it can be if that's where you want to go. You'll own complex technical work end-to-end, shape architecture and engineering standards, and raise the quality of the team around you.
The platform is genuinely interesting: Python backend services, Svelte and jQuery frontend, AWS infrastructure, Chrome and email extensions, CRM integrations, and OpenAI-powered automation workflows. You'll work across it.
Impact here is measured by the quality of the whole team's output, not just your own. If that sounds like a burden, this probably isn't the right role. If it sounds like the interesting part, read on.
