Full Stack Engineer/Agile Engineer - Edinburgh, United Kingdom - Continuum Industries

Description

Continuum Industries is on a mission to help the world accelerate the transition to a more sustainable future using Artificial Intelligence.

We have developed Optioneer , an AI-powered tool that helps plan new infrastructure projects much faster, more sustainably and with lower risk.

underground and subsea power cables, overhead transmission lines, hydrogen, and water pipelines.

We're looking for a Senior Fullstack Engineer to join our Applications Team (currently ~10 people) comprised of a mix of front end, back end, full stack and DevOps expertise.

Based in our Edinburgh office we all have a passion for both engineering (all kinds) and technology with a positive impact.

Optioneer is a data-rich application.

We ingest geospatial data on a national scale which Optioneer uses to create optimal routes for infrastructure based on hundreds (if not thousands) of constraints.

It is used by people with highly specialised knowledge in the infrastructure industry such as Civil/Design/GIS Engineers, Environmental Consultants and Project Managers to significantly reduce the time in which linear infrastructure is planned and developed.

We're looking to increase the number of users, amount of data and reliability by 10x this year and make Optioneer all round bigger, stronger and faster.

With large amounts of data moving in real time between frontend and backend, we cannot design either in isolation.

You'll work to ensure that the two work together to scale Optioneer seamlessly into the future as we become the project development platform of choice for the infrastructure industry.
