Technical Lead / Lead Full Stack Software Developer

£100,000  |  10+ years' experience  |  Full time | Quarterly office visits 

Permanent – UK-based SaaS scale-up

About the Company

Our client is a fast-growing SaaS company operating in the B2B sales and marketing technology space. 

The business is profitable, healthy and growing - expanding its product suite while continuing to invest heavily in the technology and people behind it. It's a genuine "One Team" culture, with a strong focus on growth, ownership and giving back to the wider community.

The Role

We're looking for a Lead-level Full Stack Software Developer to join a small, senior team building the company's customer-facing products. You'll be technically leading work from initial design through to full implementation - iterating quickly on a modern tech stack (Node.js microservices, Vue, Redis, SQL Server and Snowflake) and deploying to production in AWS every day, following a DevSecOps approach.

This is a hands-on lead role: part high-performing individual contributor, part lead developer and embedded architect. You'll work closely with stakeholders and customers directly, shaping solutions from the ground up rather than simply executing a backlog.

AI is central to how this team works. You'll be expected to use AI heavily to accelerate delivery and stay ahead as the tooling evolves - the team is intentionally kept small, with AI acting as a genuine force-multiplier rather than a replacement for headcount. 

What You'll Be Doing

• Partnering with stakeholders on initial solution design, scoping and system design
• Spiking areas of uncertainty and building proofs of concept where needed
• Working with initiative managers to break work down into deliverable epics and stories
• Turning user stories into production code — as an individual contributor and as lead developer/embedded architect within a small squad
• Owning the quality, maintainability and operability of what you and the team build
• Supporting live products in production and resolving issues as they arise
• Contributing to architecture and implementation decisions across the product

What We're Looking For

• 10+ years' full stack development experience, ideally on large-scale SaaS platforms
• 5+ years' JavaScript and TypeScript experience — essential for this role
• Strong system design and domain modelling experience, with a commercial mindset
• Experience with clean code, SOLID principles and design patterns
• Comfort working in a mature CI/CD environment, deploying to production daily
• A forward-thinking approach to using AI to accelerate high-quality software delivery
• Excellent interpersonal and collaboration skills, including working directly with customers
• Experience with automated testing, quality assurance and building systems that perform at scale
• Enthusiasm for security best practice and driving high engineering standards
• A technical/computer science degree or equivalent professional experience

What's On Offer

• £100,000 salary
• Employment with a fast-growing UK SaaS company
• Competitive benefits package
• A genuine "One Team" culture built around growth and high standards
• Volunteer days, fundraising and community involvement

Senior Full Stack Developer | Glasgow | Hybrid

Up to £60k + great benefits 

We're working with a well-established, growing organisation in the financial services sector - a purpose-driven business with a loyal customer base and a proprietary digital platform that genuinely differentiates them in their market.

They're growing their engineering team and looking for a Senior Full Stack Developer to join a small, close-knit group where your opinion matters, your code ships, and your impact is visible.

The Role

This is a hands-on position - the majority of your time will be spent writing and architecting code, not sitting in meetings. You'll work across a member-facing self-serve platform and internal tooling, contributing to both greenfield features and ongoing improvement of live systems.

You'll also play a senior role in the team - reviewing code, mentoring junior developers, and helping shape technical direction without it becoming a management role.

Tech Stack

• React, React Native, Next.js
• Node.js / TypeScript
• Cloud (AWS, Azure or GCP)
• CI/CD and modern DevOps practices

What They're Looking For

• 5+ years of professional full stack development experience
• Strong JavaScript fundamentals with solid React and Node.js experience
• Someone who takes genuine ownership - from brief to deployment
• Experience mentoring or supporting less experienced developers
• TypeScript, mobile app experience, and cloud exposure are all advantageous

What You Get

• Hybrid working — primarily remote, with occasional in-office days in Glasgow
• Defined benefit pension scheme
• Generous holiday allowance
• A role where your technical input genuinely shapes the product

This is a rare opportunity to join an organisation with real stability, a meaningful mission, and a tech stack you'll enjoy working in — without the noise of a large enterprise environment.
