Founding Full-Stack Engineer

Role: Founding Full-Stack Engineer

Comp: Competitive salary + meaningful early equity

Location: London - onsite 5 days

Visa: UK work authorization required

Were working with a venture-backed industrial technology company rebuilding the software stack that runs modern manufacturing.

This is not SaaS for dashboards.
This is software that directly controls machines, workflows, and operational output inside real facilities.

If youve worked in defence, aerospace, robotics, or mission-critical environments — this will feel familiar.

• Designing and building the internal operating system for advanced manufacturing sites
• Owning features end-to-end (infra backend data frontend deployment)
• Shipping continuously into live operational environments
• Working directly with operators to remove bottlenecks with code
• Setting early architectural standards that will scale across multiple sites

You wont be maintaining legacy systems. Youll be defining the foundation.

Strong signals:

• 3–7 years experience shipping production systems
• Experience in defence, aerospace, robotics, hardware-adjacent, or mission-driven startups
• Former founder / founding engineer / early technical hire
• Experience building complex operational platforms (ERP, internal tooling, workflow-heavy SaaS)
• Comfortable operating without heavy process or management layers

We care more about ownership and systems thinking than pedigree.

• Type Script / React
• PostgreSQL
• AWS
• Terraform
• Modern Dev Ops practices

You should be comfortable moving across the stack and making pragmatic architectural decisions.

• Small, high-agency team
• Direct access to leadership
• Software that runs physical systems
• On-site engineering culture
• High ownership, low ego

• Remote-first SaaS
• A large org with strict role boundaries
• Research-heavy or academic

Youll help rebuild physical manufacturing infrastructure in the UK and beyond. The roadmap includes scaling from a handful of sites to many more — and the software layer is central to that expansion.

If you want your code to control real machines — not just dashboards — email with a short intro and links to work

youve built.
