You’ll move from 0-1, establishing foundational code patterns and influencing the entire product roadmap. This role is a unique opportunity to lead technical development for a platform transforming how families make critical life decisions.

Location: London, UK

Why this role is remarkable:

• Direct mentorship from founders and experienced operators provides a high-growth pathway toward either a Principal Engineer or Engineering Leadership role.

What you will do:

• Build and own core product features end-to-end, working across the full stack from backend infrastructure to polished frontend experiences.
• Collaborate directly with founders to translate user needs into technical solutions while utilizing modern AI tools for rapid architecting and debugging.
• Navigate 0-1 development cycles to reach product-market fit, ensuring security infrastructure and data privacy compliance are built-in from day one.

The ideal candidate:

• Demonstrates excellence in full-stack or backend coding with a bias toward shipping fast and a deep proficiency in modern AI development tools.
• Possesses strong business acumen and product intuition, with the ability to navigate the high-risk and ambiguous environment of an early-stage startup.
• Prioritizes in-person collaboration in London and maintains a long-term mindset focused on customer impact and transforming the financial advisory industry.

We never post fake jobs

This isn’t a trick. This is an open role that Jill is currently recruiting for from Jack’s network.

Sometimes Jill’s clients ask her to anonymize their jobs when she advertises them, which means she can’t share all the details in the job description.

We appreciate this can make them look a bit suspect, but there isn’t much we can do about it.

Give Jack a spin! You could land this role. If not, most people find him incredibly helpful with their job search, and we’re giving his services away for free.
