We're working with an innovative tech company that’s scaling up and looking to bring on a Software Support Developer. This is a great opportunity for someone with around 12–18 months of commercial development experience who’s eager to step into a role that blends coding, problem solving, and real-world impact.


The role

You’ll be working in a small, collaborative team where your work will be visible and meaningful. This isn’t just about keeping systems running – you’ll get to design, improve, and optimise solutions that support a complex industry and its data-driven challenges. Expect to roll up your sleeves, own problems end to end, and grow your technical and industry knowledge along the way.


Key responsibilities

  • Support and enhance core systems while ensuring smooth day-to-day operations
  • Optimise and refactor code for performance and scalability
  • Develop and maintain SQL queries for large datasets, with a focus on performance tuning
  • Collaborate closely with both technical and non-technical teams to solve problems and implement solutions
  • Contribute ideas and improvements across projects, with the freedom to experiment and innovate


What we’re looking for

  • 1–2 years of hands-on commercial experience in a software development role
  • Proficiency in Python and SQL (other coding languages a bonus)
  • Solid understanding of algorithms, data structures, and computer science fundamentals
  • Experience with Git, Jira or similar tools is useful
  • Strong problem-solving ability and willingness to own challenges through to resolution
  • A collaborative communicator who can explain technical concepts clearly


Why join?

  • A fast-paced, entrepreneurial environment where your voice will be heard
  • Exposure to large-scale data challenges and industry-specific problem solving
  • Freedom to test ideas, innovate and contribute directly to the company’s growth
  • Plenty of scope for professional development as the business scales


If you’re looking for a role that offers variety, responsibility, and the chance to build your skills in a supportive but ambitious environment, I’d love to chat.
