Head of Software Engineering - Market leading SaaS product (NodeJS/ReactJS)South Yorkshire 2 days per week, 3 remote
Opportunities like this simply do not come around that often.
My industry-leading Technology client have created a newly formed role of Head of Software Engineering to lead, motivate and inspire a team whilst driving their incredibly ambitious tech roadmap.
Their flagship SaaS product is doing well within its industry across the UK and Europe with over 500 customers utilising it. But what I love about it, is that they haven’t even scratched the surface of where they intend to take it. It is continuously evolving as a platform, as they anticipate the delivery of an exciting multi-year road-map as they continue to on-board new customers.
Their CTO feels it is the exactly the right time to bring in a top-notch Head of Software to lead, motivate and inspire their talented Software Engineering team and this is where you come in!
I’m looking for a seasoned, inspirational Tech Leader and one that knows exactly how to get the best out of their people. Alongside leading the team, you will play a key role in the technical execution of their ambitious road-map - defining it accordingly and executing across the business.
Let’s talk tech. So - their highly scalable Flagship product is built mainly around the NodeJS ecosystem and this is the foundation of their applications. It’s well-geared for websites with the React framework on the front-end - all on Azure platform What else? TypeScript, Redux.js, React Hooks, Bootstrap and so much more.
Whilst this is a leadership and strategy focused role, you will have a good appreciation for the tech under your remit
Therefore, you will come from a hands-on JavaScript background using Node or React previously and have led teams of Engineers.
You’ll have exposure to Azure platform but other cloud technologies like AWS will be considered.
Alongside their industry-leading product they’re also piloting new stuff like on AI like chatbot - so there’s plenty of opportunities ahead with newer tech. They’re quite a traditional firm with a flat structure - you’ll work closely with the CTO but also their Head of Product and Head of Ops in relation to overall company strategy.
Mega role, superb product and a fantastic team. The CTO is great, with a real vision of where he wants to take their applications. He has been there since Day One when the application was built from scratch & is super passionate about finding the right person to be part of their evolution!
Awesome package with substantial benefits. You’ll be flexible to visit their South Yorkshire offices twice a week and you can work 3 days remotely
