Software Engineer

Software Engineer - Python | Remote First/Hybrid - London | Up to £60,000 + Benefits

I'm currently working with an established and growing technology company looking to add a Software Engineer to its development team.

This is a great opportunity for an early-career engineer who wants to work on technically interesting problems, gain exposure to modern technologies and have genuine ownership over their work.

The team works across a range of areas including backend development, data processing, APIs and emerging technologies. Engineers are encouraged to get involved beyond a narrowly defined remit, making this an excellent environment for someone looking to develop quickly.

The role will involve working with technologies such as:

• Python

• SQL

• Backend and API development

• Data processing and databases

• Cloud-based technologies

• Modern AI tools

You don't need experience with every technology listed. The hiring team is particularly interested in people with strong fundamentals, good problem-solving skills and a genuine curiosity for technology.

What they're looking for:

• Around 1–3 years of commercial software engineering experience

• Strong Python and SQL skills

• Experience working with databases and backend systems

• Exposure to data-intensive or technically challenging applications would be beneficial

• Strong analytical and problem-solving ability

• Someone who enjoys learning and investigating new technologies

• Comfortable working independently and taking ownership of problems

The environment is collaborative and relatively flexible, with engineers encouraged to contribute ideas and have input into technical decisions.

This would suit someone who doesn't want to spend their career simply picking up highly prescriptive tickets, but instead enjoys understanding problems, asking questions and helping shape solutions.

If you're an ambitious Software Engineer looking for a role where you can broaden your technical experience, work on interesting challenges and take on meaningful responsibility early in your career, please get in touch.
