The Role: What You'll Be Building

We're on the lookout for a talented, self-driven Full Stack Developer skilled in Java, Spring Framework, Flutter, PostgreSQL, and microservices. Your work will directly shape how landlords and tenants experience renting across the UK.

• Write clean, reusable components that bring product features to life
• Comfortable using AI coding tools such as GitHub Copilot, Cursor, or Continue
• Exposure to DevOps, CI/CD pipelines, and automated deployment is a strong advantage
• Experience with open-source toolsets is a plus
• Using Linux as your daily driver OS is an added advantage

What We Need From You (Our Must-Haves)

• 1-5 years of hands-on experience with Java, Spring Framework, and Flutter
• Understanding of REST APIs, microservices, and distributed systems
• Experience working with PostgreSQL
• Comfort using AI-assisted development tools (Copilot, Cursor, Continue, etc.)
