What kind of person are we looking for?

We are looking for an individual who is an open communicator, wants to bring new ideas to the table, is able to prioritise workload and execute that workload without needing to be managed.

We would love to hear from you if:

• Are genuinely interested in getting into the tech/software sector
• Have some basic working knowledge of programming, are keen to grow as a software developer and learn js, react, mobx, angular, css, python, flask, sql, postgres and linux
• Possess a natural aptitude for problem solving
• Can demonstrate a naturally high level of drive and enthusiasm for life, work and music
• Can demonstrate excellent verbal and written communication skills - A Level/University standard

Like most organisations, we use a variety of technologies to build our products. Our flagship product uses our own image recognition algorithm to instantly find things in the digital soup that is construction industry PDFs. It's built with Python (numpy), Postgres and React and has interesting backend scaling challenges due to the large amount of data we need on every request.

For our most recent architecture, we've adopted a slightly different tech stack to allow real-time syncing for collaborative features. Hasura gives us a GraphQL subscription layer over Postgres, which is transformed to MobX objects for the frontend. Around that, we've built a frontend library that allows for transactions and optimistic updates in an activerecord style for a really nice developer experience.

When we sit down to code, some of us old die-hards still cling to vim, while most others have adopted the warm embrace of VSCode. Whatever your preference, you'll be provided with the tools you most like to work with (new Macbook, display etc).
