About the role
We are seeking a high-calibre Full-Stack Software Engineer to join our team at a scaling mental-health technology company.

Write clean, efficient, and well-documented code in Python and TypeScript, adhering strictly to architectural patterns and coding standards.
Actively maintain and improve the performance and responsiveness of our applications through code optimisation, effective database queries, and debugging.
Implement robust security and data protection measures to safeguard user data and ensure regulatory compliance (e.g., CQC, GDPR).
Collaborate primarily with other engineers to scope, estimate, and deliver technical solutions quickly and reliably.
Take ownership beyond implementation by proactively questioning requirements, identifying risks and opportunities, and helping shape solutions that deliver the greatest value for our users and the business.
Provide constructive, detailed feedback during code reviews to maintain high quality and consistency across the codebase.
Participate fully in the software development lifecycle, focusing on implementation, deployment, monitoring, and maintaining system reliability.
Troubleshoot and resolve complex production issues across the stack, ensuring high uptime and stability of all web applications.
Stay up-to-date with the latest web development trends and tooling to continuously improve our technical practices.

Strong understanding of database performance and management for relational (e.g., PostgreSQL) databases.
Practical expertise with Git, CI/CD pipelines, and best practices for automated testing (e.g. PyTest, Jest, Vitest).
Nice to haves:
Experience with optimisation and scaling techniques for high-traffic or highly regulated applications.
Hands-on experience with cloud platforms such as AWS, Google Cloud, or Azure, particularly with managed database services and serverless functions.
Practical experience with Docker and continuous deployment tools to maintain our infrastructure as code.
