Senior Software Engineer (Remote Ok)

MyBuilder.com helps homeowners find reliable tradespeople through the power of online reviews. We’re a market leader in the UK and are part of IAC, a well known New York based internet group (Vimeo, Match.com, Tinder, HomeAdvisor, etc.)

We want to work with people who are curious, honest, courageous and passionate - if that sounds like you and you want to work for an innovative, successful web business helping homeowners to find reliable tradespeople, then you may have found a new home.

Software development at MyBuilder

Our focus is to produce high quality, working and tested code which not only keeps us happy and productive, but also helps the business to succeed. Our development process has been honed through exploring various flavours of agile and we believe that our way of working helps us get the right things done at the right time.

Our current main technology stack is:

  • Symfony on PHP 7.4
  • PostgreSQL
  • AWS Hosted with a significant portion running on AWS Lambda
  • ReactJS, TypeScript
  • GitHub Actions for CI/CD
  • PHPUnit, Jest & Cypress for testing

We practice clean code and have been using DDD at MyBuilder for over 6 years as well as having built a number of Event Sourced domains.

We have open sourced a number of our tools and happily contribute back to projects we use.

The right person

We are looking for people who care about good craftsmanship, who strive to improve themselves, their code and the workplace.

You understand that maintenance — bug fixing, addressing technical debt, refactoring, increasing automated test coverage — are as important as writing new code.

You don’t need to have worked with all the technologies we use.

You should have worked for a number of years building software including taking ownership of large projects from idea to completion and then maintaining and growing the system.

You should have experience in, and an understanding of improving the performance of the code and systems you create.

您应该对现代编程实践和技术有很好的理解。

Despite having years of experience you will understand you have a lot to learn.

Why you’ll enjoy working at MyBuilder

Engineering, Product and Design work together at MyBuilder, using agile processes in a highly collaborative environment with blurred lines between these disciplines. We have a large and complex product with more interesting challenges to solve than we have time to tackle.

We have daily check-ins for departments and project teams. We problem solve on paper, whiteboards and in Sketch. We prototype in the browser, deploy only when ready, and split test as much as possible with genuine users. We’re a small but growing team meaning you’ll have the opportunity to have a direct impact on a large scale product.

我们为所有员工提供远程工作的选择,在办公室或混合工作。无论你选择哪一种,我们都会给你一台笔记本电脑,里面有你有效工作所需的所有工具。在每月的办公日里,你还可以和你的同事一起度过宝贵的时光,和你的经理1:1见面。

We’ll also add:

  • 33 days holiday (including bank holidays) + 1 extra day for every year of service
  • 5% employer pension contribution
  • Comprehensive private medical insurance with AXA
  • Routine treatments health cash plan
