    Description

    Interested in becoming the Founding Engineer for a SaaS Startup?

    Ready to revolutionize compliance tools and reduce security risks?

    ADA is exclusively partnered with an emerging startup that has built its own security compliance tool.

    The product is live and they are searching for a Founding Engineer (NodeJS, Gitlab, Postgres) to help scale this to the next level

    The SME is currently in the process of scaling up due to recent project successes. As a Founding Engineer, this is a great opportunity to manage, and work, on several greenfield projects.

    Role:

    • Founding Developer (NodeJS)
    • £55k DOE
    • Hybrid (Manchester - once a week in the office)
    • Bonus, professional development, social events, progression

    What we're looking for...

    An experienced Backend Engineer with skills in NodeJS, Postgres, Gitlab, and any additional experience with AWS/Kubernetes is beneficial.

    Preferably, you will have a track record in building and delivering complex greenfield projects with strong knowledge of the entire SDLC.

    You'll lead the technical function and be happy to communicate fresh ideas.

    Also, you'll need (some) Startup experience (if you're looking for an established team this won't be for you)

    With that of course, plenty of autonomy is to be expected. You will be working very closely with the Head of Engineering, both technical planning and hiring planning, too.

    For example, a few projects include:

    • Moving their monolith over to microservices
    • Taking onboard client feedback/thoughts to add new features
    • Working with Kubernetes/AWS to automate where possible

    Responsibilities:

    • Lead development activities, writing clean, testable, and scalable code
    • Improving efficiencies and automating as much as possible
    • Adding new features, ensuring best practices and quality, using state-of-the-art technologies
    • Deliver high-end development projects for our clients
    • Guide/help junior peers (long term)

    Experience:

    • Demonstrable experience with Node.Js and React.Js
    • Experience with Gitlab
    • Experience with Postgres or similar
    • Experience with Kubernetes and AWS
    • End-to-end SDLC experience

    You can expect a salary of up to £55,000 28 days holiday, a training budget, pension & bonus, amongst other benefits.

    We understand that job adverts only give a snapshot of the role, so we know you will have plenty of questions.

    Rest assured, we will share everything from the full job description, location, salary, benefits, and more on our initial briefing call.
