At ReCulture, we’re not your typical recruitment agency. We’re talent matchmakers - connecting top talent with environments where they’ll thrive. Our approach goes beyond the surface, focusing on behaviours and values as much as skills. Partnering with clients like an in-house team but moving at the speed of an agency, we deliver long-term impact by ensuring the right values fit.
We’re working with an early-stage start-up using Generative AI to transform how non-technical teams work. They’re building intuitive, AI-powered tools to support knowledge workers and are looking for a talented Back-End Developer to join their ambitious team.
This is a great opportunity for a mid-level developer who’s ready to take ownership, contribute to technical decisions, and help shape a product from the ground up.
The Role:
You’ll lead on back-end development and architecture, designing secure, scalable systems. You’ll work closely with a collaborative team and have opportunities to share your work publicly through blogs or demos (support provided).
What You’ll Bring:
* Strong Python skills with Django and DRF experience
* Familiarity with Celery for background tasks
* Confident with PostgreSQL and performance tuning
* Experience with WebSockets (Django Channels or similar)
* Comfortable with Docker and CI/CD pipelines
Bonus Skills:
* Experience with LLMs or vector databases (e.g., Pinecone, FAISS)
What’s on Offer:
* Equity in a high-growth start-up
* Personal learning budget
* Flexible hybrid working (2 days per week in Manchester)
* A chance to build cutting-edge AI products in a supportive team.
ReCulture endeavours to be an outstanding and inclusive employer and is committed to presenting the best candidates regardless of background.
