Backend engineer in proptech

Описание:

Every year, hundreds of thousands of homeowners could move but don't, and homes that could sell never reach the market. The property market is slower and more closed than it should be. Homesearch is building the intelligence layer that gets it moving, connecting people, homes and agents through data and AI. Our vision is a fully connected, faster, more open property market.

Задачи:

• Work across HAILO, Homesearch Pro and our app integrations, picking up the problems that matter most at the time.
• Build and extend APIs and backend services in our Laravel codebase.
• Find new ways to process and serve property data as our products and customers grow.
• Set a high bar on security, performance and code quality, and help others meet it through code review.
• Help shape how we structure and ship code, from CI/CD on Bitbucket and GitHub to shared packages used across the platform.
• Explain technical trade-offs to product and leadership in plain language, so good decisions get made early.
• Work closely with product, and get involved before a spec is fully settled.
• Use AI tools (we use Claude, GitHub Copilot and Codex) where they genuinely speed up the work.

Требования:

• Strong PHP and Laravel experience, with solid SQL, MySQL preferred, and a real understanding of optimisation and indexing.
• REST/JSON API development experience, and comfortable working with Redis alongside MySQL.
• AWS experience, particularly API Gateway, ECS and containers, plus Docker and Docker Compose.
• Confident within CI/CD workflows on Bitbucket or GitHub.
• What matters more than years of experience is breadth: you've worked across genuinely different kinds of systems, maybe GIS, big data or indexing and data architecture, e-commerce customer flows and payments, and that range shows in how you approach problems.
• You use AI coding tools (Claude, GitHub Copilot, Codex or similar) actively as part of how you work. Neither resisting them nor relying on them blindly, you stay accountable for what you ship.
• Collaborative and genuinely receptive to code review, and comfortable with ambiguity, especially in product conversations before a spec is fully settled.
• You can explain a technical constraint to a non-technical stakeholder without losing them.
• We welcome career paths that don't run in a straight line. Some of our strongest people came from unrelated fields, and that adaptability is exactly what we're looking for.
• Будет плюсом: Comfortable with Vue (V2/V3) and vanilla HTML/CSS for the occasional frontend-adjacent piece of work; Terraform or infrastructure-as-code experience; Agile/Scrum ways of working

Условия:

• Competitive salary, plus share options, so you share in the upside you create.
• 25 days holiday plus bank holidays.
• A MacBook to work on.
• An office with a free on-site gym, free yoga and gym classes, sauna and regular events.
• Hybrid working: mostly remote, with time in our London Victoria officeonce a week while you get to know the products and team, then around 2 to 4 days a month once settled.
• Real impact at a fast-growing PropTech at a real turning point.
