Software Engineer

£80k - £120k per annum
Full-time

This Is Not Your Normal 9 to 5.

If you are searching for predictability and structure this is not the right role for you. If you want to clock in and clock out and be told exactly what to do you will not thrive here. But if you want to build something extraordinary from the ground up and have a direct hand in shaping a company that is already growing at a breathtaking pace then read on. This is your chance to build a unicorn from scratch.

You will join forces with some of the brightest minds in technology. The founding team includes leaders who have already proven themselves at the very highest levels of innovation and execution. They are backed by world class investors including DeepMind and OpenAI.

In less than a year of launching their products they have already reached seven figures in recurring revenue and they are only just getting started. The mission is bold and the ambition is clear. They are reinventing the way intellectual property is created defended and scaled. Right now the products focus on drafting patents responding to patent office actions and detecting infringement. But this is only the beginning.The true goal is to become the operating layer for innovation itself a platform that empowers inventors research teams and intellectual property professionals to move faster and more effectively than ever before.

Here is what makes this opportunity different:

  • You will work directly with the founders and the founding engineer on a daily basis. There is no corporate structure here just high velocity collaboration with the people shaping the future of the company
  • You will be given problems not instructions. Your role is to take full ownership and deliver solutions that matter to customers
  • You will build production grade software at speed. The team runs one week sprints and moves at an intensity that few companies can match
  • You will talk to customers shape products and see your work have an immediate and visible impact on real businesses.

What you will need to succeed:

  • Strong back end engineering experience. The core service is written in Java but adaptability and curiosity are more important than labels
  • A systems mindset. You will need to think about how data flows through the system and how it affects the end user experience
  • Hunger and drive. This environment suits people who want to be challenged and who enjoy building in conditions of uncertainty
  • Comfort with being office first. The team believes that speed and intensity are best achieved when working closely together in person

What is on offer:

  • A base salary up to £120k with additional stock options worth between 30 and 70 percent of cash compensation
  • A genuine opportunity to join at the seed stage right before takeoff with a clear path toward becoming a billion dollar company
  • The chance to build alongside some of the best in the business and to say with pride that you were there at the very beginning

This is not the right place for corporate lifers or those who want predictability and safety. This is a place for builders for owners for people who want their work to matter.

If you are ambitious smart and excited by the chance to create something groundbreaking this is your opportunity.If that sounds like you it is time to step forward.
