Job Description

Reed.ai is looking for a Senior Developer to join their team in Holborn, London.

Overview

Join a collaborative, forward-thinking team that values creativity, experimentation, and impact-and help redefine the future of recruitment through intelligent, human-centered technology.

We're looking for a talented and experienced Senior Fullstack Developer to play a pivotal role in the development and growth of a brand-new AI recruitment platform as it prepares to enter the market this summer. This is a rare opportunity to take a product from Beta launch to full market release and beyond, shaping its trajectory at every stage.

You'll be central to transitioning product development from an external agency to an in-house team, while driving technical excellence, user adoption, and long-term innovation. This is a chance to build something meaningful from the ground up-within a startup-style venture backed by the strength and stability of an established business.

Key Responsibilities

• End-to-end development of high-quality, scalable SaaS platforms from design through deployment and maintenance.

• Architect and implement robust backend services primarily using Python and PostgreSQL.

• Develop and maintain responsive, performant front-end applications with TypeScript and modern frameworks (e.g., NextJS, NodeJS).

• Collaborate with product owners, UX/UI designers, and other stakeholders to translate requirements into technical solutions.

• Champion agile ways of working, driving continuous improvement and delivery excellence.

• Integrate and optimize AI tools and APIs to enhance development productivity and platform capabilities.

• Provide technical mentorship and leadership to development teams, fostering best practices in coding, testing, and deployment.

• Participate in code reviews, architecture discussions, and system design decisions.

• Troubleshoot and resolve complex technical issues across the full stack.

• Ensure software security, scalability, and performance are maintained at all times.

• Keep abreast of emerging technologies and industry trends to inform strategic decisions.

Skills and Experience

• Minimum 8 years of commercial software development experience, with at least 3 years in a senior or technical lead role.

• Proven expertise in full-stack development using:

  • TypeScript (and JavaScript frameworks such as NextJS, Node, or Tailwind)

  • Python (including frameworks like Django, Flask, or FastAPI)

  • PostgreSQL and relational database design, optimization, and maintenance.

  • AI Development Tools such as Windsurf, Aider or Augment.

• Demonstrable experience building and scaling SaaS platforms in a production environment.

• Strong understanding and practical application of Agile software development methodologies.

• Hands-on experience integrating AI tools, APIs, or platforms into software solutions.

• Domain experience in Recruitment Technology, HRTech, or closely related fields is a must.

• Proficient in software architecture, microservices, RESTful API design, and cloud-native development (AWS, Azure, or GCP preferred).

• Experience with CI/CD pipelines, automated testing, and DevOps practices.

• Solid grasp of security best practices, data privacy, and GDPR compliance.

• Excellent communication skills, with the ability to work effectively across multidisciplinary teams and stakeholders.

• Strong problem-solving skills and a pragmatic approach to delivering solutions.

• Desirable

  • Experience with containerisation and orchestration tools such as Docker and Kubernetes.

  • Familiarity with event-driven architecture and message brokers (e.g., Kafka, RabbitMQ).

  • Knowledge of front-end performance optimisation and accessibility standards.

  • Exposure to machine learning pipelines or data engineering workflows.

  • Prior experience working in startup environments or high-growth technology companies.

Benefits

• Hybrid working as standard

• 25 days annual leave plus bank holidays

• Flexible holiday scheme

• Paid time off to move home

• Contributory pension scheme

• Enhanced family leave benefits

• Insurance benefits including life assurance

• Love Mondays events

• Discount scheme including gyms and popular retailers

• Range of wellbeing and mental health support avenues

• Office in a fantastic location, with countless bars, restaurants and theatres right on the doorstep.

We're always on the lookout for people who want to make a difference and are passionate about helping others progress their careers. It's time to Love Mondays!
