What are the opportunities for a Software Engineer at Gearset?

• Our small engineering teams start from a few core principles but evolve over time. They all work a little bit differently, depending on their preferences and the problem they're working on. You’ll impact what we build, as well as how we build it.
• A great team does their best work with context and feedback - there’s no substitute for talking directly with the people impacted by our work. Engineers work across the business and talk directly to customers and partners, to ensure we're solving the most pressing problems.
• Our tech stack includes C#, React, TypeScript, Postgres, AWS and Kubernetes. You’ll become familiar with our pragmatically chosen stack, but you’ll also help us define what great looks like.
• You'll have access to leading LLMs and AI development tools to support your work, with a collaborative culture and dedicated internal channels for sharing AI tips and tricks to help everyone grow.

What you'll achieve

• Enhance and extend existing features, and collaborate with the rest of the development team to spec, design and build new features end-to-end.
• Share your expertise and learn from a diverse team, fostering a culture of collaboration and continuous growth.
• Engage directly with users—understanding their challenges, gathering feedback, and shaping features that truly make a difference.
• Contribute opinions on a range of topics, from development practices to product strategy and roadmap, to impact business decisions.

About you

• A pragmatic approach to working, prioritising iteration and delivering value to customers, over process and deliberation
• Previous experience as a full-stack engineer
• A passion for learning and continual improvement, being comfortable giving and receiving constructive feedback to make your work even better

Great to haves

• Familiarity with C#/.NET or Java, JavaScript/TypeScript and React
• Expertise with an OOP language (eg., C++) and a modern JS framework (eg. Angular, Vue.js)
• Proficiency in working on a distributed, cloud hosted product with rapid release cycles
• Experience working directly with customers
• Experience working in an agile development team, where you’ve delivered incremental small slices, and are comfortable with reacting to meet user needs

Salary and benefits (the stuff you’d expect!)

• Salary is £41k - £59k, depending on experience
• This is a full time opportunity, working Monday to Friday with the option of flexible home working (for most of us that looks like 2-3 days a week in the office). We are also open to discussing part-time options for this position.

• Top end hardware provided
• Opportunity to join our Long Term Incentive scheme
