The Glenturret Distillery

Full-Stack Platform Developer London (Hybrid) £65,000-£85,000 + Bonus This one's a bit different. One of the world's most iconic whisky retailers, a genuine institution, is hiring its first dedicated platform developer. A business with serious heritage, a loyal global customer base, and five active revenue streams: flagship retail, D2C e-commerce, cask trading, own-label bottling, and international export. The tech stack currently does the job. But it's a patchwork (Shopify, Airtable, WineHub, Xero) custom integrations holding it together, and they know it's going to become a ceiling as they scale. Your job is to replace it with something properly built. You'll design and ship a single internal platform from the ground up: a real source of truth, clean ETL pipelines, a custom internal web app, and serverless integrations across all their source systems. You'll report directly to the CEO, hold full architectural ownership, and see the impact of your work immediately across the business. This is not a role where you implement someone else's spec. You decide the architecture. You make the call on the stack. You own it. What you'll be building: A central internal web application covering stock, sales, cask trading, purchasing and export The data architecture underneath it - schema, data model, single source of truth on Azure Serverless ETL pipelines pulling from Shopify, WineHub and Xero into clean, normalised schemas AI features in production where they genuinely earn their place Role-based access control, Shopify theme maintenance, and Airtable as a read-only view layer The stack: TypeScript, Node.js, React/Next.js, Microsoft Azure, Azure Functions, PostgreSQL, REST APIs, Shopify (Liquid). Flexible for the right person. What we're looking for: You've designed a relational data model, built a backend around it, and shipped a usable web app. You're comfortable with Azure, unfazed by data pipelines and API integrations, and you use AI-assisted development fluently, not performatively. You've probably been the "everything engineer" at an early-stage startup, or you're coming from a backend/data/cloud background and want more ownership than your current role gives you. What you get: £65,000-£85,000 depending on experience, plus bonus Hybrid working from a genuinely interesting Soho HQ Direct CEO & CTO access and immediate visibility of your impact Full architectural ownership from day one Staff whisky allowance and access to their team education programme This is a rare role - the kind of technical ownership that's hard to find outside of a founding engineer position, inside a business with real character and a 60-year track record.
