Mid Level Full-Stack Engineer (Backend-Leaning) · Remote
We're hiring on behalf of a small, product-focused insurtech – a digital-first insurance business with a tight-knit engineering team.
This is a growth hire. The platform is solid; they just need more hands on the work that keeps it that way: dependency updates, CI/CD health, repo tooling, security patches, and internal scripting – alongside normal product feature work.
The stack
Node.js · TypeScript · React · MongoDB · MySQL · AWS (Lambda, RDS)
Roughly 80% backend, 20% frontend.
You'll need
- 3+ years in a full-stack or backend-leaning production environment
- Strong TypeScript and Node
- Comfort maintaining existing codebases, not just greenfield work
- CI/CD, repo tooling, scripting experience
- Pragmatic, ownership-driven – you spot things that need fixing and fix them
- MongoDB or AWS Lambda experience is a plus
The role
- Fully remote (UK)
- 2–3 in-person team meetups per year
- £60,000–£70,000 · no equity or bonus
Process
30-min intro call → 1hr technical (live coding) → 30-min meet the team
Notice periods over 2 months are likely to be a blocker — worth flagging upfront.
Interested? Get in touch with your profile and we'll take it from there.
