Job description

Why join

We are a hyper-growth Tech startup on a mission to revolutionise student rental. We’re now looking for a Full Stack Engineer to help us on the next stage of our journey.

We were formed after our co-founders - Harry and Ben - experienced the pain-points of renting a house while at university, and knew that there had to be a better way.

We're now up and running in four UK cities and have launched in the US. In 2023 we were recognised by Tech Climbers as a rapidly scaling tech company, and we're currently fundraising to fuel our growth even further.

What you'll do

  • As a Full Stack Software Engineer, you will play a crucial role in maintaining and enhancing our existing products : a mobile app built in React Native and a backend portal built in Laravel Livewire.
  • You'll work closely with our experienced development team to contribute to the entire software development lifecycle and ensure the delivery of high-quality solutions..
  • You’ll assist in the maintenance and enhancement of our mobile app, implementing new features and optimising performance.
  • You’ll contribute to the development of our backend portal, built in Laravel Livewire.
  • You will write clean, well-documented, and efficient code that aligns with coding standards and best practices.
  • You’ll participate in code reviews, providing and receiving constructive feedback to maintain code quality.
  • You’ll troubleshoot and debug issues across the stack, ensuring smooth functionality of both products.
  • You will stay up-to-date with industry trends, emerging technologies, and best practices to suggest innovative solutions

What we're looking for

  • You probably identify as a “Mid-Level” Full Stack Developer, with good commercial experience, ideally within a startup / scaleup environment.
  • You will have commercial experience with our Tech Stack : Laravel (Livewire), PHP, ReactNative, React, AWS
  • You have strong problem-solving skills, with the ability to debug and resolve complex technical issues
  • You have great verbal and written communication skills, with a collaborative mindset to work effectively within a team.
  • You’re based in / near the North West and can work to our hybrid policy (see below).

    • What we offer

  • Salary - Genuinely Market Competitive!! (We’re happy to disclose our benchmarked bandings during the interview process)
  • Share Options - The opportunity to gain from Housr’s success with our Share Options scheme (again, we’re happy to discuss during the interview process)
  • Holiday - 25 days off, plus bank holidays each year
  • Free Gym Membership - Keep fit, with free use of our on-site gym
  • Monthly Team Lunches - At the end of each month, we all grab lunch together as a team, and also have the afternoon off to focus on ourselves
  • Company socials - A chance to let our hair down as a team. Past socials have ranged from paintball to ping pong tournaments - we’re quite competitive!
  • Central Office Space - Located in the heart of Manchester, and complete with on-site barista
  • Hybrid Work Policy - We’re big advocates of in-person collaboration. We’re in the office four days a week, with Thursday as a team-wide work from home day.

    • Interview Process

  • First Stage - Exploratory call with our Talent Partner to discuss your experience and go through any initial questions (30 mins)
  • Second Stage - Informal video call with one of Senior Developers - learn what it's like to be a Engineer at Housr (30 mins)
  • Third Stage - Remote task to evaluate key skills for the role (written in Laravel)
  • Fourth Stage - A single F2F interview split into two parts :

    • Part 1 - A chance for us to chat through your task (what went well, what you’d improve with more time etc) (30 mins)

  • Part 2 - Wider ranging questions about your experiences and motivations for working at Housr, approaches to certain scenarios, working style and what you’ll bring to this role (30 mins)
  • Offer - If we think it’s a good fit, we’ll make you an offer! 🎉
