Join us at a pivotal moment to help maintain and evolve our B2C products used by millions, while playing a key role in building our new B2B offering from the ground up. You'll build the TypeScript/NestJS services powering our mobile app and ship full-stack features (backend through frontend) on our web products. Who You Are You're a Product Engineer first, an engineer second. Code is a tool, the goal is user value and business impact. You're backend-heavy and full-stack capable. Your home base is backend (TypeScript/NestJS), and you ship full-stack on the web (React/Next.js/similar) when the work calls for it. Angular & Vue experience is fine! You build for mobile without building the mobile app. You design APIs and services that serve mobile clients beautifully, accounting for offline, network, battery, and app-release realities and are able to partner closely with mobile engineers. You own features end-to-end. From API design and data modelling to web frontend implementation, deployment, and post-launch iteration. You're a proactive collaborator. You ask the right questions, propose solutions, and work effectively with teammates whose depth complements yours, including mobile, design, and product. You thrive in fast-paced, early-stage environments where speed, user feedback, and product-market fit drive decisions. What You Bring You have strong backend depth in TypeScript and NestJS (or comparable Node.js frameworks). You bring solid web frontend skills with React, Next.js, or similar enough to ship polished, production-quality interfaces independently. You have a working knowledge of cloud infrastructure; ideally GCP (Cloud Run, Cloud Functions, Firestore), CI/CD pipelines, and event-driven patterns (BullMQ/Redis or similar). You can ship and operate your own services. You have awareness of mobile constraints. You know what makes an API painful or delightful to consume from a mobile client, even if you don't write the mobile code yourself. You value pragmatism over purism. You make calibrated calls on architecture, scale, and tech debt based on what the product actually needs. How You Work You push back on the why, not just the how. You ask "why are we building this?" before "how do we build this?" You propose simpler alternatives when a 3-day version captures 90% of a 3-week feature's value. You're comfortable telling PMs and designers when something isn't worth building. You treat technical debt as a tool. You ship throwaway prototypes to validate hypotheses with real users. You delete what flops and re-architect what succeeds. You know when "the right way" is a luxury vs. a necessity, and can tell the difference. "Done" to you means users are using it. A merged PR isn't done. A feature is done when it's live, adopted, and the metrics prove it was worth building. You actively monitor analytics post-launch. You're a strategic partner. You sit with PMs and designers to shape what we build and what we don't. You're as comfortable in a product strategy conversation as you are in a code review. You contribute insights from user data, technical constraints, and implementation realities to inform product decisions. Must be based and have the right to work in the United Kingdom. Read Less

Description London, UK Hybrid (3 days in our Paddington HQ: Mon, Tue, Fri) Stack: React, TypeScript, Python, Flask, MySQL, AWS In 2018 we set out to solve a problem millions of people faced: not just struggling with their skin, but struggling to navigate skincare at all. We combined dermatology, pharmacy and technology into something simpler and genuinely personalised, and proved expert-led care could reach people who'd never had access to it. Today, +Me is the company behind Skin + Me, Hair + Me and Renew + Me, with more on the horizon. We're not building a single brand. We're building a category. We've delivered millions of treatments, we're profitable and growing fast, and we're expanding the engineering team to match. What you'll build You ll join the team behind our core commerce and clinical journey: the ecom stack, consultation engine, patient and prescription systems, and order generation. This is where customers discover us, complete a clinical consultation, subscribe, and receive their personalised treatment, at real consumer scale. On our Python and React stack, that's the storefront behind Skin + Me and Hair + Me, our flagship brands serving customers at scale. We're hiring a Full Stack Engineer with a frontend lean to build the customer-facing side of this system in React/TypeScript, backed by our Python/Flask services. Frontend is your strength: clean, responsive, accessible interfaces, and you're equally happy working into the backend to ship a feature end-to-end. You'll learn fast alongside experienced engineers who'll back your growth. What you'll do Build the customer-facing journey: clean, responsive, accessible React/TypeScript for the storefront and the consultation experience. Ship end-to-end: work into our Python/Flask backend to get a feature out the door, with support from senior engineers. Sweat the details: performance, accessibility, and the small things that make a clinical product feel trustworthy. What we're looking for Frontend depth: solid, recent, hands-on experience building production React/TypeScript interfaces. A non-trivial piece of work you can walk us through and explain well. Genuinely full-stack: able and willing to work in a Python/Flask backend to get a feature shipped (you don't throw it over a wall). Good fundamentals: component structure, state management, performance, and an instinct for testing. Care where it counts: you hold a high bar for correctness and detail, because this is a clinical product people rely on, not just a marketing site. The stack: React and TypeScript; working comfort with Python/Flask; relational databases (MySQL) a plus. Clear communication: much of our work is written (PRs, docs), so explaining a decision crisply matters. Roughly 3-6 years building software in production. We read for depth in your area, not years. How we work We're a small, experienced engineering team working closely with product, clinical and operations. We care about craft: clean code, honest reviews, and owning what you ship through to production. And because our software turns a clinical consultation into a real prescription and a treatment someone receives, correctness and care aren't optional here. They're the job. How we use AI Agentic tools like Claude Code and Codex are a standard part of how we work, and we're leaning into them hard: we automate the routine so we can spend our energy on the harder problems. You'll need to be comfortable working this way, and real skill with these tools is a genuine advantage we value. But it's a multiplier on strong engineering judgement, not a substitute for it, and never a prerequisite. If it's newer to you and you're keen to grow, we'll back you. Compensation & benefits We pay competitive base salaries and back them with meaningful equity, so your upside grows with the company you're helping build. Equity: a meaningful stake in a profitable, Series B-backed business that's growing fast, with flexibility on your cash/equity mix. Time off: 25 days holiday plus bank holidays. Hybrid & flexible: three days together in Paddington (Mon, Tue, Fri), remote Wed/Thu, core hours 10-4 with flexibility around them.

Description London, UK Hybrid (3 days in our Paddington HQ: Mon, Tue, Fri) Stack: Python, Flask, SQLAlchemy, React, TypeScript, MySQL, AWS In 2018 we set out to solve a problem millions of people faced: not just struggling with their skin, but struggling to navigate skincare at all. We combined dermatology, pharmacy and technology into something simpler and genuinely personalised, and proved expert-led care could reach people who'd never had access to it. Today, +Me is the company behind Skin + Me, Hair + Me and Renew + Me, with more on the horizon. We're not building a single brand. We're building a category. We've delivered millions of treatments, we're profitable and growing fast, and we're expanding the engineering team to match. What you'll build You ll join the team behind our core commerce and clinical journey: the ecom stack, consultation engine, patient and prescription systems, and order generation. This is where customers discover us, complete a clinical consultation, subscribe, and receive their personalised treatment, at real consumer scale. On our Python and React stack, that's the storefront behind Skin + Me and Hair + Me, our flagship brands serving customers at scale. We're hiring a Senior Full Stack Engineer to own features end-to-end across this system in our Python / Flask / React stack: backend services and data models through to the customer-facing frontend, with the judgement to make sound architectural calls as we scale to more brands and more customers. What you'll do Own features end-to-end: from Python/Flask services and data schemas to the React frontend, across systems like checkout, subscriptions, and the consultation-to-prescription flow. Scale what's working: keep the platform fast, correct and resilient through new brand launches and rising volume, and make the architectural calls that keep it that way. Lift the team: clean, well-tested code and honest reviews that help the engineers around you ship with confidence. What we're looking for Depth and breadth: strong, recent, hands-on full-stack experience. You're genuinely capable across backend and frontend, not just one side. Engineering judgement: clean code, clear API design, sound data modelling, and the instinct to pick the simple, robust solution over the clever one. Shipped impact: features you owned and shipped that moved something real for customers or the business. Care where it counts: correctness isn't negotiable when your code decides what treatment a patient receives. The stack: production command of Python (Flask) and React/TypeScript; relational databases (MySQL ideal) with SQLAlchemy/Alembic; comfort with AWS and Docker. Clear communication: most of our work happens in PRs, design docs and async decisions, so writing clearly matters. Roughly 6+ years building software in production. We read for depth and shipped impact, not years. How we work We're a small, experienced engineering team working closely with product, clinical and operations. We care about craft: clean code, honest reviews, and owning what you ship through to production. And because our software turns a clinical consultation into a real prescription and a treatment someone receives, correctness and care aren't optional here. They're the job. How we use AI Agentic tools like Claude Code and Codex are a standard part of how we work, and we're leaning into them hard: we automate the routine so we can spend our energy on the harder problems. You'll need to be comfortable working this way, and real skill with these tools is a genuine advantage we value. But it's a multiplier on strong engineering judgement, not a substitute for it, and never a prerequisite. If it's newer to you and you're keen to grow, we'll back you. Compensation & benefits We pay competitive base salaries and back them with meaningful equity, so your upside grows with the company you're helping build. Equity: a meaningful stake in a profitable, Series B-backed business that's growing fast, with flexibility on your cash/equity mix. Time off: 25 days holiday plus bank holidays. Hybrid & flexible: three days together in Paddington (Mon, Tue, Fri), remote Wed/Thu, core hours 10-4 with flexibility around them. Fuelled: free breakfast and lunch on office days, plus snacks and drinks. Growth: a £500 annual personal development budget. Family & health: healthcare cash plan, cycle-to-work, and a workplace nursery scheme (save tax/NI on childcare). The extras: a dog-friendly HQ (two resident pups), an active Culture Club, and heavily discounted products for you and 10 friends & family.
