Engineering Leader | High-Growth Series A Scale-up

Are you a full-stack pioneer ready to own a product from end-to-end? ️

We are exclusively representing a mission-driven tech startup that has just secured a strong

Series A funding round . They are on a journey to transform how local governments and public agencies operate in the UK and USA — breaking down barriers and building the most intuitive procurement platform of the future.

As the first dedicated engineering hire , you won’t just be writing code; you will be the technical architect and leader shaping the entire roadmap of a high-impact, purpose-led organisation.

The Role: Lead Engineering Hire

This is a "player-coach" evolution. You will drive great execution, manage the balance of scope and resources, and eventually build a high-performing engineering team from the ground up.

Key Responsibilities:

Strategic Hybrid Build: Utilise a modern stack ( React , Marketplaces, Payment Infrastructure) alongside innovative low-code/no-code and AI integrations.

Team Building: Drive hiring, mentorship, and culture. You’ll manage internal growth while effectively collaborating with external contractors and freelancers.

Execution Excellence: Establish the "Quality Playbook"—setting standards for code reviews, testing, and monitoring.

Who You Are:

Technical Polyglot: A rapid learner, fluent in React and complex marketplace infrastructure. You aren’t afraid to get your hands dirty in the code but are ready to delegate as you scale.

Systems Thinker: You think end-to-end about how architecture affects the user and the future of the service.

Entrepreneurial Spirit: You thrive in "startup hustle," acting with urgency and accountability. You care about being effective over being right.

Emotionally Mature Leader: An empathetic mentor who drives clarity in ambiguity and promotes a culture of high standards and transparency.

Why This Opportunity?

Key Leadership Status: This is a cornerstone role with the freedom to shape the tech stack and strategy.

Series A Momentum: Join at a pivotal inflection point with the financial backing to scale rapidly.
