The posting

We're looking for a full-stack engineer to join our growing team.

We value small and high performing teams and are looking for a full-time software engineer to join alongside the current core team. The responsibilities will go beyond just the technical stack: you'll help shape product direction and company strategy, and you'll have a lot of influence over how we build and how we work.

SOME THINGS WE'RE LOOKING FOR:

- You're a high-ownership builder. You take a fuzzy customer problem, decide what to build, and get it shipped.

- You're AI-native. You build with coding agents and LLMs every day, you understand how they work under the hood, and you have real projects to show us.

- You have product experience. You've built products that real users and customers depend on.

- You appreciate good design (UI/UX) and are passionate about building products that people love to use.

- You care about security but know how to build secure systems without slowing down. An interest in networking or security operations is a plus.

- You're a fantastic communicator and happy to keep challenging existing ideas.

- You're thoughtful about creating and maintaining a world-class engineering culture.

WHAT THE JOB INVOLVES:

- Build and own features from start to finish: plan, build, test, deploy, iterate.

- Working directly with our users in the community (through Slack, X, Github), reviewing their issues and using the feedback to prioritise our work.

- Having an ownership mindset: being comfortable with both responsibility and accountability.

- Being comfortable when faced with a lot of ambiguity, both technically and organizationally.

- Making good trade-off decisions between moving quickly and launching features versus optimising for engineering excellence. You're happy to ship something at ~80% and iterate.

Location This is a hybrid role based in London.

Research has shown that women are less likely than men to apply for a role if they don’t have experience in 100% of the requirements outlined in a job description. Please know that even if you don’t have experience in all the areas above, but think you could do a great job and are excited about shaping company culture, finding great people and building great teams, we’d love to hear from you!

HOW WE WORK AT LIGHTDASH

- We build in public, by default. We’re an open source product, so having shared context is important so that people can contribute effectively to Lightdash. As a team, we also think that we make the best decisions when everyone has a lot of the same information. We don't oversell and under-deliver: we want the experience of using Lightdash to be as awesome as the experience we're selling.

- We challenge problems, not people. We ask ourselves “why is this broken?” not “who is breaking this?”

- We’re highly collaborative. We’re a group of people that are happy working independently, but love being part of a team. **We not only work on problems as a team, but we also listen to the feedback from our community and our users. We invest in tools and processes that allow us to do this, even while fully remote.

- We bias towards impact. We’d rather build something to 80% and get it in front of users so we can iterate on fast feedback than build something to 100% just to find out it’s not the right thing. We spend a lot of time thinking about how our work solves real user problems. We work on the highest impact problems even if they’re something a bit “out of your remit”.

OUR TECH STACK:

While we don't expect you to have used all the components of our stack, it'd be great to know which parts of it you're familiar with:

- Primary stack: Typescript, React, Node, SQL

- Frameworks: express, react-hooks

- Infrastructure: Docker, GCP

💜 We believe that to build a product that works for a diverse group of people, we need a diverse team. So, we strongly encourage candidates of all different perspectives, experiences, backgrounds and identities to apply. We’re committed to hiring people regardless of race, religion, colour, national origin, sex, sexual orientation, gender identity, age or disability. And once you join us, we’re committed to building an inclusive, supportive place for you to do the best work of your career.

Why it works

3×

more interviews than doing it yourself with ChatGPT.

ChatGPT writes a CV and never learns what happened to it. We see every reply. For each CV we know:

  • How it was written, and how the review scored it
  • When we applied, and how long after the posting went up
  • Which posting, which company, which city
  • Who got the interview, and who heard nothing

That is how we know which CVs get called.
