WHY WE NEED YOU

Disrupting the home cleaning market throws up a lot of hard problems: real-time scheduling, job-allocation, routing and messaging to coordinate thousands of daily home visits. And all this complexity has to be presented to our cleaners, customers and operations staff with beautiful, intuitive user interfaces.
Our ambitions are much bigger than winning in a single vertical. We’ve built a platform from which we can not only tackle the £5 billion home cleaning market, but from which we can also address the £10 billion commercial cleaning and £40 billion tradespeople markets. We have already made promising starts in each of these new markets, and we plan to scale up our tech team with the very best engineers to supercharge our growth.
We are looking for an experienced, driven, and preferably full-stack Lead Software Engineer who is excited about solving complex problems, building scalable platforms, mentoring other developers and promoting technical excellence within an engineering team.

As a Lead Software Engineer, you will:

• Bring your leadership experience and enthusiasm to our engineering culture
• Promote excellence with technical mentoring, feedback, and code reviews
• Understand the biggest and most complex business problems, then propose and implement technical solutions
• Work with the Head of Technology and other senior team members to make decisions on architecture, team structure, training and progression
• Contribute to the hiring process for new developers, for example by helping lead interviews or setting coding exercises
• Participate in and help run planning sessions, retrospectives, stand-ups and demos
• Join us in curating a codebase to be proud of, driving for quality, maintainability and testability
