Full Stack Engineer

Mid–Senior Level | Manchester | Hybrid – 3 Days On-Site

We’re partnering with an ambitious, product-led Manchester technology start-up that has achieved product-market fit and is entering an exciting new phase of growth.

Its technology connects consumers with service providers, creating a simpler and more intuitive experience for both sides of the marketplace.

The business is now looking for a hands-on Full Stack Engineer who can work confidently across the front and back end, take ownership of features and turn ideas into well-built customer-facing products.

You’ll work closely with the Founding Engineer and company founders, taking features from initial idea and exploration through to build, launch and iteration.

As an early, senior-leaning member of the engineering team, you’ll have genuine influence over technical decisions, engineering standards and how the product evolves as the business scales.

Key responsibilities

• Build clean, maintainable and well-tested software using React, Node.js and JavaScript/TypeScript
• Own features across the full development lifecycle, from idea through to launch
• Improve the product using customer feedback, user behaviour and performance data
• Manage integrations with payment providers, app stores, calendars and email platforms
• Oversee infrastructure and contribute to CI/CD pipelines
• Make pragmatic decisions around architecture, technical debt and build versus buy
• Maintain strong standards around security and data protection
• Participate in lightweight sprint planning, refinement and retrospectives
• Collaborate closely with founders, designers, customers and other stakeholders

Skills and experience

• Approximately 3–5+ years of commercial full stack engineering experience
• Strong JavaScript/TypeScript, React and Node.js skills
• A genuine mix of front-end and back-end development experience
• Experience working within a start-up or similarly fast-moving environment
• A track record of independently delivering features from concept through to launch
• A product-focused mindset and an understanding of how technology can solve customer problems
• A good eye for design and user experience
• Strong consideration for maintainability, scalability and security
• The confidence to make pragmatic technical decisions without heavy oversight

Experience building consumer-facing products would be particularly valuable.

Experience with Stripe, Expo, mobile development, ticketing platforms or e-commerce products would be beneficial but isn’t essential.

Why Apply

• Join a growing technology business at a pivotal stage
• Take genuine ownership of customer-facing technology
• Work directly with the founders and Founding Engineer
• Help shape engineering standards, architecture and ways of working
• Influence the development of a product with an established and growing user base
• Share options available for the right candidate
• Hybrid working from a central Manchester office
• All necessary equipment provided

If you’re a product-minded Full Stack Engineer who enjoys moving quickly, solving genuine customer problems and owning work from idea through to launch, we’d like to hear from you.
