Are you a kick-ass web or app developer?

We strive to provide satisfying, challenging work, plenty of room for growth, a whole heap of benefits and a flexible, relaxed environment to work in.

Environment

We like our employees to feel like a major part of the company. We massively value sharing ideas, and challenging each other when suitable. We want everyone to feel like they have a voice, and that people will listen to it. We score a 10/12 on the Joel test (we don’t have designated testers or use hallway testing at the moment), and are constantly looking to improve our working environment in every way possible.

Training

Training for developers can mean a range of things, but by and large, there’s no substitute for learning on the job. We encourage our team members to identify the skills develop and technologies they’d like to work with in our regular review meetings – and we aim to match projects to resource accordingly, with mentors assigned to guide along the way. We also run regular hack days where we all work on our own projects and then demo the code and work to one another.

Self-taught?

So are we! Most of our team are either self-taught or have come from boot camp courses and we advocate them as a great way to enter the industry – we encourage applications from course graduates from MakersGeneral AssemblyLe Wagon, etc.

Are you a recruitment agency?

These are not the droids you’re looking for.

Please don’t call. If (one day) we need you, we’ll be in touch. We will not engage with cold-calling or emailing agencies in any way.

When applying

Please include links to your portfolio/GitHub/Bitbucket/Linkedin and a copy of your CV.

Whilst we’re working on a fully remote basis, we’re still only recruiting UK-based candidates right now, to ensure our team focus stays localised and that we can still meet when we need to.
