Company: Innova Recruitment Limited
Apply for the Fullstack Engineer
Location: Manchester
Job Description:

Mid-Level Full Stack Developer – Permanent Position

Location: Manchester – Hybrid (2‑3 days onsite)

Package: up to £60,000 + bonus + private healthcare.

We are working with a PE‑backed consumer platform that is rebuilding its internal engineering capability after historically relying on outsourced development teams. The business operates at scale, with millions of users across the UK, and is currently building cross‑functional product squads internally as it modernises both its platform and engineering culture. This isn’t a “sit in a corner and maintain legacy code” type role; it is a genuine opportunity to join a business in the middle of a large‑scale technology transformation where engineering standards, product thinking and modern development practices are becoming central to its operations.

Technical Stack

  • C#/.NET Core
  • React/TypeScript
  • Node.js
  • Azure
  • CI/CD/DevOps
  • PHP/Laravel (legacy estate currently being modernised)

You will join one of the UK product squads and work alongside a Tech Lead, Senior Engineer, QA, Product Manager and UX Designer. Your responsibilities will span contributing to the modern platform while also supporting and gradually modernising parts of the existing PHP estate as the company brings capability in‑house.

What We Are Looking For

  • Approximately 3+ years of commercial software engineering experience
  • Strong experience with .NET backend development
  • Exposure to PHP, React and TypeScript
  • A preference for product engineering over ticket‑factory delivery
  • A commitment to code quality, collaboration and proper system improvement
  • Curiosity around AI‑assisted development and modern engineering tooling

Why This Role Is Interesting

  • Direct access to the CTO and senior leadership
  • Opportunity to shape engineering standards as the function grows
  • Strong progression opportunities into senior level roles
  • Modern product squads with meaningful ownership
  • Fast‑moving environment without heavy corporate process
  • Engineering transformation already underway rather than “talked about”

The business is Manchester based with hybrid working (typically 2–3 days onsite). Salary is realistically up to £60,000 depending on experience alongside bonus, private healthcare and additional benefits.
