Fancy joining a high-growth tech business with a major product roadmap and big investment into engineering?
We’re helping a client find a Senior Backend Developer to play a key role in scaling an established IoT platform – already used by thousands of businesses across the UK and Europe. The product is gaining serious traction, and there’s plenty of opportunity to lead, influence architecture, and shape the future of the platform.

Designing, building, and maintaining secure, scalable backend systems using Elixir and Ruby, with some Go in the mix
Taking the technical lead on key projects, supporting delivery while influencing the wider architecture
Guiding and mentoring junior engineers while setting the tone for engineering standards and delivery mindset
Working closely within a cross-functional agile team – collaborating to solve real-world problems at pace
Rolling up your sleeves when it counts – especially during high-pressure delivery periods

Significant experience as a backend engineer in modern product environments
Strong critical thinking skills and a pragmatic approach to problem solving
Ability to lead from the front – both technically and as a mentor
A product-led mindset – comfortable taking ownership from design to delivery
Passion for agile principles, team collaboration, and iterative improvement
What’s on offer:
Remote-first working (UK based), with just one day a month in Chester
A major product with scale, complexity, and a real-world impact
A fast-growing tech business with loads of opportunity to progress
A great engineering culture with strong collaboration and high standards
