We're putting together a talented team to build the #1 training platform for Runners

Our ambition is huge: to become the go-to global leading training platform for millions of runners everywhere. We’re growing with purpose and looking for people who want to build something meaningful with lasting impact. With the recent acquisition by Strava accelerating our journey, now is a really magical time to join

The team you’ll join

We are looking for talented, creative and positive team players to join our highly-skilled cross-functional engineering team. You’ll sit on the Train Team where you will work closely with our modelling teams to integrate features that are core to [Employer hidden — view at passion-project.co.uk]’s mission (think adapting plans around holidays and B races, supporting new cutting edge plans, and building in-app experiences around our AI/ML tooling).

You will work closely with our founders, CTO, and engineering leadership team to help shape the future of [Employer hidden], who will support you all along this exciting journey. We have a jam packed roadmap, with countless opportunities to champion new technologies, work on meaningful problems that impact millions of runners, and improve existing architecture to elevate the whole of our engineering team.

What you’ll be doing

  • Always be on hand to help other team members when they need help on technical matters
  • Help us operate more efficiently, by building and maintaining our developer tooling and CI/CD pipeline

Bonus points if you have:

Our Interview Process:

Our aim is to keep the interview process as straightforward and enjoyable as possible, and will consist of the following stages:

  • Take home technical task (max 1-2 hours to complete, or if you have something interesting you recently built and would like to showcase then that's perfectly OK)
  • 1.5-hour technical interview (the first half of the call will be used to discuss the take-home technical task from the previous stage and the second half will consist of system design and some general architecture/tech questions)
  • Meet the team (in-person chat with founder(s) and rest of the team)
