Senior Product Engineer

Summary

Join Sequence, a reinvented accounts receivable company, and be part of a team with extensive experience in building successful companies. As a senior product engineer, you will play a key role in creating a world-class product experience by building a backend for our product and a first-class API for our customers. You will also guide product direction, collaborating with data, product, and design teams. Shape our backend architecture by working on complex technical problems and help build an early engineering culture that values collaboration, learning, and teamwork. This is a fast-paced environment where you will have the opportunity to make a significant impact. We are looking for someone who enjoys hands-on work, is comfortable with backend-focused roles, and wants to work as part of a small, multi-disciplinary team.

Requirements

• Enjoy being hands-on with a focus on writing code and shipping things
• Are happy working day-to-day in a backend-focused role using a strongly typed language
• Our services are built in Kotlin, though you don't need experience in that language to join us, many of our engineers have done the same and enjoyed the challenge of learning a new set of skills
• Want to work as part of a small, multi-disciplinary team and collaborate closely with others
• Want to work on something new
• The biggest product and company decisions still lie ahead of us
• Enjoy the uncertainty and unpredictability that comes with an early stage company

Responsibilities

• You'll help us figure out the best ways to go about this, building a backend for our own product, alongside a first-class API experience for our customers
• Guide product direction: We believe that all engineering decisions are product decisions, and vice versa
• You'll collaborate with data, product and design to choose what we work on and why, and help build Sequence to be the best product and business it can be
• Shape our backend architecture
• You'll work on some of our most complex technical problems and help others do the same
• You'll help choose how we build things and what we prioritise as a product and engineering team
• Help our small team have outsized impact
• We want to build an early engineering culture that values collaboration, learning and teamwork
• You'll play an integral role in shaping our product, culture and ways of working to help us achieve this

Preferred Qualifications

• Enjoy larger organisation structures and only staying within your area of expertise
• Want a traditional engineering team set up, with a predictable roadmap, clearly scoped out tickets provided for you, and so on
• Prefer a slower pace
• Want all of the benefits that come with an larger, established tech company

Benefits

• The salary range for this role is £80,000 - £130,000 + share options
