The opportunity
Our client is hiring a Senior Full Stack Engineer to take ownership of building the next generation of customer-facing software in the energy market.
The business operates in a complex, high-value sector and is using technology, data, and strong product thinking to modernise an industry that has historically been underserved by great software.
We have already recruited 4 people into the business, and all 4 are still there. We know the company and team well and are pleased to be supporting them again on this important hire.
This is a genuinely high-impact opportunity for an experienced engineer who is equally comfortable across frontend and backend development. You will take the lead on building new products and developing the codebase, with significant autonomy over technical decisions, architecture, and delivery.
The position can be fully remote, although the business would welcome occasional visits to its Mayfair office for collaboration and team time.
The role
This is a true full stack position.
They need someone strong in React and Type Script who can build polished, reliable customer-facing software, but who is equally capable of contributing across backend services, APIs, application logic, databases, and data-rich workflows.
The platform supports complex energy processes across areas such as billing, metering, consumption, reporting, and asset performance. You will be responsible for taking those workflows and turning them into clear, scalable products that customers genuinely value.
Initially, you will lead much of the engineering work independently. You will not, however, be expected to operate without support. The business can provide access to external engineering expertise and additional coding support where needed as the platform and codebase develop.
This role offers genuine autonomy. You will have the freedom to make sensible technical decisions, shape engineering standards, and influence how the product evolves as the company grows.

Leading the development of customer-facing products from initial concept through to production
Building modern frontend applications using React and Type Script Designing and developing backend services, APIs, integrations, and application logic
Working with Python, SQL, databases, and data platforms
Taking ownership of architecture, technical decisions, and engineering standards
Turning complex energy and operational data into clear, intuitive product experiences
Working closely with product, data, leadership, and external engineering partners
Building a scalable and maintainable codebase from the ground up Helping define the future engineering team and technical direction as the business expands
What they are looking for Strong commercial experience across both frontend and backend engineering
Excellent React and Type Script capability
Strong backend development experience, ideally including Python Good experience with APIs, databases, SQL, and system integrationsA track record of leading projects or taking ownership of major technical work streams
Experience building customer-facing software from scratch
Strong product instincts and the ability to think beyond individual tickets
Confidence making technical decisions and working with a high level of autonomy
Excellent communication skills and the ability to work closely with technical and non-technical stakeholders
Personality and attitude are particularly important. They want someone positive, proactive, collaborative, and genuinely enthusiastic about building great software. The right person will bring energy to the team, take responsibility, and approach challenges with a practical and constructive mindset.
Nice to have Startup or scale-up experience
Energy, utilities, trading, sustainability, or fintech experience
Data visualisation experience
Experience working with Databricks or similar data platforms
Experience using AI-assisted development tools
Previous involvement in shaping engineering teams, standards, or architecture
