About the role
As we embark on the next phase of our growth, we’re looking for a mid‑level to senior Software Engineer to help us design, build, and scale the software that brings life‑changing skincare directly to our customers. This is a hybrid role with three days a week in our Paddington HQ (Mon, Tue, Fri) and two days remote.
About the company
There’s a huge problem in the world of personal care: people struggle with more than just how their skin or hair looks. They’re navigating confidence, identity, and long‑term health— all deeply personal and ever‑changing. Skin + Me, Hair + Me and Renew + Me exist to change that.
Skin + Me launched over six years ago with one mission: to revolutionise skincare through personalised, clinically‑effective treatment that’s simple, sustainable, and built around real results. Now a category leader and scale‑up success story, Skin + Me has delivered millions of personalised treatments through our signature Daily Doser and helped customers transform not just their skin—but how they feel in it.
From that foundation, we’re building out a powerful family of brands: Hair + Me brings prescription‑led, personalised treatment to the world of hair health, tackling concerns like thinning and loss with the same blend of dermatological expertise and tailored solutions. And now, Renew + Me is our latest evolution— an advanced prescription skincare brand created specifically for midlife women. Born from the insights of Skin + Me and designed to meet the unique needs of women 45+, Renew + Me couples hard‑working actives with deeply human insight to become the definitive skincare brand for this powerful life stage.
At Skin + Me, Hair + Me and Renew + Me, we advocate for real, long‑term change—whether it’s better skin, hair, or health. Our mission is rooted in personalisation, expert care, and building deep trust with our customers. No compromises. Just undeniable results.
We recently raised £10 million in Series B funding, backed by top‑tier investors like Octopus Ventures and leading DTC founders. Our founding team brings experience from some of the most trusted consumer brands in the world — Facebook, Charlotte Tilbury, Graze.com, and more.
With Skin + Me leading the way and our fast‑growing younger brands already gaining traction, the +Me journey is just getting started. We’re scaling fast—and we’d love for you to be part of it. Think you’re up for the challenge?
