About the job

Software Engineer

Python/FastAPI/React

Amsterdam

My client isn't looking for someone to execute a roadmap. They're looking for someone to help write it.

They're a fast-moving, well-funded startup based in Amsterdam with 400+ paying customers, a 4+ year runway, and a founding team that knows how to build. They're at the stage where things are working, and now they need the right people to help them scale.

The role

This is a hands-on engineering role with real ownership. You'll work across the full stack, help shape technical decisions, and have a direct impact on the product and where it goes next. No bureaucracy, no endless approval chains, just a small, talented team moving fast and building something people actually pay for.

What you'll be doing

• Building and improving core product features end-to-end
• Contributing to architectural decisions, not just implementing them
• Working closely with the founding team to shape the product roadmap
• Owning your work from idea to production

What they're looking for

• Strong experience with Python and React
• Someone who thrives with autonomy and takes pride in their work
• A builder's mindset, you care about the product, not just the code
• Based in Amsterdam or happy to relocate

Why join them?

✅ Serious traction, 400+ paying customers already

✅ Strong investment, 4+ year runway

✅ Impressive founding team with a track record

✅ Real ownership and influence from day one

✅ Fast-moving environment where your work actually matters

If you want to join a startup that's past the risky early stage but still early enough to shape, my client would love to hear from you.
