Integrate third-party APIs and external services
Write and review database migrations before they reach production
Debug and resolve production issues
Deploy, monitor and maintain delivered work
Short release cycles, direct ownership of shipped features, and involvement across the full stack of the product.</p><p>• 2+ years building production backend systems — REST APIs, authentication, integrations, background jobs
• Strong in at least one modern backend stack: Python, Node.js, Go, Java or similar
• Solid relational database skills — schema design, constraints, indexes, migrations. Comfortable writing SQL, not only ORM calls
• Frontend ability — React or a modern JavaScript framework, sufficient to build and ship user-facing features
• Proven ownership of features from specification through to production
• Clear written English
• Bachelor's degree in Computer Science, Engineering, or equivalent practical experience
Preferred:
• Python / FastAPI — the primary backend stack for this role
• Next.js / React
• PostgreSQL, and Supabase or another Postgres-based BaaS
• Row-Level Security
• Migration discipline (Alembic or equivalent)
• Async programming
• Third-party API integration under real constraints
• Cloud deployment, monitoring and CI/CD
Candidates who have moved into DevOps or platform engineering and no longer write application code daily, or who prefer backend-only roles with no frontend involvement, are unlikely to be a good match.
Applicants should state in the first line of their application: the backend service they are most proud of — the stack used, what it did, and a repository link if public. Applications that do not include this will not be reviewed.</p>

We are hiring an IT Operations Officer to own the corporate IT environment: end-user devices, productivity systems, identity management, IT support, and corporate cybersecurity hygiene.</p>
<p>This role covers corporate IT only. Production technology systems sit separately with the technology leadership team.</p>
<h4>What the role covers</h4>
<ul>
<li>Procurement, configuration, and lifecycle management of laptops, peripherals, and mobile devices; maintaining the device inventory and asset register</li>
<li>Administering the productivity suite (M365 or equivalent) including mailboxes, file storage, collaboration tools, and licensing</li>
<li>Identity and access management: account provisioning, role-based access, multi-factor authentication, and the joiner-mover-leaver process</li>
<li>First-line IT support for staff: incident triage, resolution, and escalation to the outsourced managed service provider where needed</li>
<li>Applying cybersecurity policy to corporate systems: email security, endpoint protection, patching, and security awareness training</li>
<li>Managing corporate IT vendor relationships, service contracts, and the IT contract register</li>
</ul>
<h4>Requirements</h4>
<p>Who we are looking for</p>
<ul>
<li>At least five years in an IT operations, IT administration, or end-user computing role</li>
<li>Demonstrated experience administering M365 or equivalent productivity suites</li>

</ul>
<h4>What this is</h4>
<p>This is a founding-team role. The corporate IT environment is being built now, and the person in this role will set it up properly from the start. If you are self-sufficient, security-conscious, and want to own your environment rather than operate within one someone else built, this is worth a conversation.</p></p><p></p>
