Python Full Stack Engineer

Senior Full Stack Engineer (Python/Django) | Product Engineering | London (Hybrid 3 days)

The Job

We’re looking for a Senior Full Stack (Python) Engineer to help scale a fast-growing digital platform that is modernising a large operational industry through software and data. You’ll own meaningful product areas end-to-end—from architecture and backend services through to production delivery—working closely with a small, highly collaborative engineering team. This is a coding-first role where your ability to ship reliable software, improve scalability, and solve real-world operational problems will directly influence the growth of the platform.

The Company

My client is a rapidly growing technology company building software products that simplify and modernise operational workflows within a traditionally underserved industry. They are product-led, engineering-focused, and operating with a startup mindset—moving quickly while solving practical challenges that have real-world impact. The team is still relatively small, giving engineers genuine ownership and influence over both technical direction and product evolution.

About You

You’re a strong backend-leaning full stack engineer who enjoys building production systems that scale. You care about code quality but also understand pragmatism and delivery. You’re collaborative, low-ego, and comfortable working closely with product teams in a fast-moving environment where ownership matters.

• 6–10 years of software engineering experience
• Strong hands-on experience with Python & Django
• Experience building and scaling production systems
• Comfortable contributing across backend, APIs, databases, and some frontend work
• Strong debugging, bug-fixing, and delivery mindset
• Experience mentoring or supporting mid-level engineers

Nice to have: GCP experience, startup/scale-up background, or experience in operational/product-led businesses.

Why Would You Join?

This is an opportunity to join a genuinely mission-driven engineering team at an exciting stage of growth. You’ll work in a small team where your work has immediate visibility and impact, while helping shape products that are solving practical problems at scale. The environment is collaborative, low-ego, and focused on building high-quality software without unnecessary process or bureaucracy.
