Who We're Looking For
We don't want 9–5ers. We want
builders
. People who code because they can't
not
code. People who get a kick out of taking an idea from scratch to something real and used. People who've pulled all-nighters because they were too deep into solving a problem to stop.
You'll thrive here if you're:
* Curious.
You go down rabbit holes. You can't leave a problem unsolved.
* Ambitious.
You want to build something that matters — and get rewarded big when it works.
* Hard-working.
You know success doesn't come without putting in the hours and the grit.
* Ownership-driven.
You see problems and fix them. You don't wait for permission.
If you're just looking for a comfy salary, this isn't for you. We're looking for
missionaries, not mercenaries.
About JammJar

We've got early traction (~£100k ARR → £1m+ ARR in sight), strong backing from Haatch and The FSE Group, and a small, senior team who've been around the block.
