Summary: The Full Stack Engineer role involves joining an innovation function focused on exploring emerging technologies and building rapid prototypes to influence product direction. The position requires hands-on experimentation and the ability to work autonomously in undefined problem spaces. Candidates should possess strong full-stack engineering skills and excellent communication abilities. This is a six-month contract with a likely extension, offering a day rate of £550–£600 outside IR35.
Key Responsibilities:
- Experiment and iterate quickly to design proofs-of-concept using modern engineering and AI.
- Own initiatives end-to-end and work autonomously in ambiguous problem spaces.
- Collaborate with technical and non-technical stakeholders to communicate effectively.
- Develop TypeScript services, Python APIs, and frontend applications using Angular or React.
- Bridge validated prototypes into production alongside engineering squads.
Key Skills:
- Proficiency in TypeScript or JavaScript.
- Experience with Python or Ruby.
- Expertise in modern frontend frameworks (React, Angular, or similar).
- Fluency in RDBMS & SQL.
- Experience with ORM tools (e.g., Prisma).
- Strong full-stack engineering ability.
- Excellent communication skills.
- Self-directed approach, comfortable operating without day-to-day oversight.

- Angular and/or React frontends
- GCP-based data and storage workflows (anonymised cloud platform reference only)
- Prototyping frameworks, rapid experimentation and POCs
- AI-driven product concepts with external innovation partners
- Bridging validated prototypes into production alongside engineering squads
Nice to Haves
- Experience with cloud-based data architectures
- FastAPI development or similar
- Familiarity with dashboard or visualisation-heavy product workflows
- Exposure to AI-infused product development
- Experience working with complex or insights-driven datasets
Why Join / Projects
