[LRUG] [JOBS] Software engineering at FreeAgent (Edinburgh, or remote UK)

[Olly Headey]

Hi LRUG

We're looking for software engineers of all levels to come and work on our
flagship product FreeAgent (www.freeagent.com). We're a growing team of 75,
based largely in Edinburgh, but with remote staff around the UK (5
engineers are fully remote).

We have a lot of happy customers (40,000+, NPS = 75), a lot of traffic (13
million+ page views/mo), and some lovely staff to work alongside, learn
from and have fun with (http://www.freeagent.com/company/about-us). We
invest a lot of time in our platform (code health, scalability, security)
as well as working on new features, which is nice.

Engineers tend to be full stack, but we are seeing people move towards more
specialist work these days, such as front-end programming (we're doing a
lot of React.js, primarily on our iOS app), our real-time accounting
engine, data science. People play to their strengths really. Our stack is
intentionally straightforward. It's sensible and sustainable. Javascript
aside, we mainly write Ruby alongside MySQL, RabbitMQ, Elasticsearch,
Puppet.

We are looking for full-time staff right now, but I'd also be interested to
chat to people interested in a longer-term contract (e.g. 12 months+).

Cheers,
Olly
