About the role
We are looking for an engineer to build standalone applications, internal tools and automations end to end — design, integration, deployment and support. The pipeline of projects is varied and growing, the technology is current, and there is real room to take on more as you deliver.
What you'll do
- Build standalone web applications and internal tools used across the business
- Integrate with internal systems and third-party services via APIs
- Deploy and host your applications on Azure — CI/CD, environments, access control, monitoring
- Automate manual workflows, including LLM- and agent-based automation where it genuinely fits
- Work with stakeholders to turn a vague problem into a scoped, shippable application
- Stay close to your applications after launch
What we're looking for
Must have
- Python — your primary working language, used for real applications and not just scripts
- Git and comfort in the command line — branching, reviews, general fluency in a terminal
- APIs — designing them, consuming them, and integrating systems that were never meant to talk to each other
- Application development — solid fundamentals across frontend, backend and database, and an understanding of how the three fit together
- Deployment — you have put applications into production, kept them running, and dealt with what breaks
- Observability and monitoring — you know what your application is doing once it is live
- Agentic coding — fluent daily use of Claude Code, Codex or equivalent as your working method
- 2–4 years of hands-on software engineering experience
Good to have
- Embeddings, vector storage and RAG
- Agent tooling and MCP servers
- Containerisation (Docker or equivalent)
- Cloud experience, ideally Azure (App Service, Functions, storage, SQL, DevOps pipelines)
