Full Stack Developer Role with Flexibility on Hours Available
Powdr's software is the brainchild of our amazing co-founder and CTO Steve and is managed and developed by his small but fantastic team which we are looking for someone to join. You'll get to work alongside some really great (and just nice) people whilst doing a variety of things in a full stack developer role.
We are on the hunt for someone who loves solving bugs but also wants to develop new features. You'll be working directly with the CEO and COO to bring their ideas to life, and we're looking for someone who can take ideas and build out the ask without all the structure that often sits in larger corporate firms when it comes to development. For the right person, it's a great development opportunity and will give a breadth of opportunities across a variety of different parts of the software... you'll never be bored.
We can promise you a dynamic, fast-paced role, responsibility from the get-go, and the ability to influence and shape your work to achieve the best output for our business and clients.
Come and be part of our growth story!
Because we are on such a growth curve at this stage we ideally are looking for someone with strong React and Java skills. You'll have the support of the team of course around you to help you day to day but having the independence to take a piece of work, shape it and bring it to life is a must for us.

Working hours are also flexible; as long as you deliver quality work, when you do this is within your control!

The Application Process:
We'd love a CV from you but also a quick couple of sentences as to what you're looking for and why the job interests you...there's a time and a place for using chatGPT (and don't get me wrong we are keen AI users in the world of work smarter not harder) however this is one time I want to see a couple of lines written by you, what's your passion, what are you after, why us?
Initial interviews will be a quick 15 minutes for me (Nicola) to speak to you, understand where you are and what you're looking for and for me to share a little more on the team here and our big plans. We find this helps both applicants and us to make a quick decision on whether the fit feels right at the get-go and hopefully reduces any time wastage during the application process that can often suck so many hours from you.
Java and React tests will be required after successful pass of the previous stage but ahead of the final interview.
Equal Opportunity Employer:
We are an equal opportunity employer and welcome applicants from all backgrounds and experiences. All qualified applicants will receive consideration for employment without regard to race, colour, religion, sex, sexual orientation, gender identity, national origin, disability status, or any other characteristic protected by law.
We regret that we are unable to offer visa sponsorships for this role and all applicants must hold a valid visa to work permanently in the UK.
If you're passionate about technology and eager to make a meaningful impact in a startup environment, we'd love to hear from you!
