About the company
Our client is a fast-growing software company.
The role
Raydar is recruiting for this role on behalf of our client. Join a small engineering group as a hands-on generalist, designing and delivering developer-facing software across the whole stack.

What you'll do
- Design, build and release new capabilities for developer-facing packages and services, mainly in TypeScript.
- Emphasize reliable infrastructure and tooling that other engineers can adopt with little effort.
- Take part in a short daily sync to prioritize defects and incoming customer asks, then move into heads-down work on your own area.
- Partner with senior leadership to weigh customer suggestions and help set product direction.
- Write and review code changes with teammates, keeping quality standards high.
- Contribute to AI-driven workflows that support the platform.

- Ongoing hands-on coding outside of work, for example a personal project.
- A degree in computer science or a related technical field such as electrical engineering or mathematics with programming.
- If coming from a large technology company, evidence of initiative and resourcefulness; startup experience is valued.
- Ability to work independently and stay effective amid ambiguity in a fast-moving setting.
