Apply for the Full Stack Engineer – Engineers Wanted For Challenging Work
Location: London
Job Description:

Our client is a fast-growing EdTech company on a mission to fix the chaos of school management. Schools are juggling siloed systems that don’t talk to each other – creating duplication, frustration, and wasted time. The company is changing that with one AI-powered platform covering everything from club sign-ups and attendance to parental consent, medical data for trips, and real-time notifications. They started by dominating music department management and are now scaling that approach across schools.

Over 260 schools are already on board – and they’re building towards 1,000. The team is close-knit, ambitious, and based in a modern office in Vauxhall.

They’re hiring their second full-stack developer to work directly with an experienced Lead Developer and CPO. You’ll build and evolve areas of the platform at pace, with real ownership from day one. In the first three months, you’ll work closely with schools to drive onboarding and adoption — giving you deep product insight before you transition fully into the development team.

Key Responsibilities

  • Product development: Write excellent code, ship fast, and deliver real value to the teachers, parents, and students using the platform.
  • Customer success: In your first three months, drive platform adoption and engagement by working directly with schools. Carry that customer‑first mindset into the product team beyond that.
  • Collaboration: Engage fully in product and customer discussions, helping prioritise and balance competing demands across a fast‑moving roadmap.
  • Technical support: Resolve issues quickly and effectively, keeping customers happy and the platform performing.

The package

  • Up to £90,000 salary
  • A stake in the success of the company through share options
  • Fast‑growing company with plenty of room for progression
  • Uncapped training and development budgets
  • Vibrant team with regular socials, like pool, darts and drinks
  • Team retreats
  • Weekly lunches
  • 6‑monthly pay reviews
  • A high‑performance team where impatient, ambitious people thrive

What we’re looking for

  • Hands‑on experience with React and Node.js
  • Exceptional problem‑solving ability — proven in diagnosing and fixing complex technical issues
  • Strong communication skills — able to build real relationships with customers and translate technical solutions clearly
  • A solid grasp of software development best practices
  • A genuine appetite for learning and adapting in a fast‑moving environment

Ideal, but not essential

  • Experience with MongoDB
  • Experience with AWS‑style cloud platform architecture
  • Knowledge of automated testing tools and frameworks
  • Experience using AI tooling to amplify development output
