Offer description

Overview

We’re looking for a Software Engineer to join our Software & Automation team. This isn’t a narrow, “take a ticket off of the JIRA queue” role; the ideal person thrives across a modern full stack, from React apps and APIs to low/no-code tools like Node-RED and Airtable. They’re excited about experimenting with LLMs and agents, and they tinker—whether that’s with home automation, music setups, or that one side-project they just haven’t quite finished yet!

We care about technical curiosity, craftsmanship, and a pragmatic approach: always do the right thing technically, but recognise when organisational or technical debt is a prudent trade-off to help move the business forward. We also believe software should serve processes, not dictate them, and that automation only makes sense once processes are sound.


Key Responsibilities

* Build across the stack: from low-code automations to polished React applications.
* Collaborate with business stakeholders to deeply understand problems and design solutions that improve efficiency.
* Explore and apply modern automation approaches, including LLM-powered agents.
* Contribute to the full software lifecycle: design, build, deploy, and support.
* Champion a mindset of “improving how we build,” both for team practices and developer experience.
* API Design and Development: Design and develop robust APIs with a strong emphasis on GraphQL.


The Right Candidate

* Adaptability in a fast-paced environment: thrives in dynamic settings and can quickly adapt to evolving business needs. Comfortable with rapid changes and able to maintain high performance under pressure.
* Proactive and self-motivated: takes initiative without waiting for directions and is driven to learn and tackle new challenges independently.
* Takes responsibility: owns tasks and responsibilities, and believes engineers should own their product’s entire life cycle.
* Collaborative and solutions-oriented: excellent at working with cross-functional teams, understanding needs, and proactively offering solutions. Strong communication and a team-oriented mindset.


Must-Have Skills

* Strong experience in Node.js and TypeScript.
* Strong experience with both consuming and developing GraphQL APIs.
* Strong experience with React or other front-end development frameworks.
* Experience with relational databases.
* Experience with containers, Kubernetes, CI/CD, IaaC tooling, and public cloud platforms.


Desirable Skills

* Experience with graph databases and low & no-code tools.
* Familiarity with digital design tools such as Figma.
* Familiarity with schema-first database development, especially with Prisma ORM.
* Experience with graph databases such as Neo4j.


Benefits

We believe in taking care of our staff both mentally and physically and offer a range of benefits you can access.

* Employee Share Plan - opportunity to become a shareholder in the company (terms apply).
* Company pension scheme.
* Bonus scheme.
* 25 days of annual leave allowance that increases with years of service (excluding bank holidays).
* Private healthcare.
* Life assurance.
* Income protection.
* Access to Spill, our mental health support partner.
* Cycle to work scheme.
* Half-price gym memberships through the healthcare provider.
* Free eye test.
* Travel loan.
* Hastee app to help manage salary and finances.

(Terms & conditions apply - amount possible to buy is capped and contingent on pre-existing variables.)


Diversity, Inclusion, And Equal Opportunities

We aim to be an equal opportunities employer and ensure that no applicant or employee receives less favourable treatment on the grounds of gender, age, disability, religion/b beliefs, sexual orientation, marital status, or race, or is disadvantaged by conditions or requirements which cannot be shown to be justifiable. We strive for a working environment free of bullying, harassment, victimisation, and unlawful discrimination, promoting dignity and respect for all. This commitment includes training managers and employees under the equality, diversity, and inclusion policy.

Vorboss promotes step-free access at our main headquarters and considers potential barriers across all other sites.
