ClimateTech CTO

ClimateTech CTO – Hands-On

Location: Fully Remote (ideally UK).
Salary: £75K + benefits & equity

Tech stack: Python, Django, React, AWS, PostgreSQL

Know the saying, “a wolf in sheep’s clothing”? What if instead of a wolf there was clothing? And for the sheep, just more piles of clothing?

There’s a literal clothing desert in Chile and billions of discarded items are incinerated each year, on top of most of the items we wear are made from plastic/polyester.

There’s nothing sheepish about the company we are working with, they are fiercely changing the fashion industry, enabling brands to identify a sustainable pathway for their supply chain, through transparency and valuable data insights.

By doing this, businesses improve their own practices and focus their future activity on suppliers taking real steps to cut emissions, improve the sourcing of materials, tackle modern slavery and more.

They are essentially building a platform, which grants their clients access to data that otherwise they wouldn’t be able to collate or translate into actionable points. Through this platform, they also improve data the companies already have by making it broader and easier to work with.

This is incredibly powerful in achieving buy-in from major brands, helping them establish which factories they should do more work with, and which they should either steer away from or increase pressure to change.

They use data from various sources including publicly available international trade and shipping data, data from certification bodies and public information orgs addressing issues like pollution or modern slavery and they’re always finding additional sources to interrogate and improve the quality of data used.

One of the co-founders has been acting as CTO and building their software and data platform with some support from contractors.  He’s from a more product-focused background and needs an expert software engineer to take over in terms of technical leadership, making decisions on tooling, infrastructure, scaling up and executing their plans.

The team is small and they’ve just raised money, primarily from one angel investor, with an aim to become self-sustaining in the next 12-18 months, so you’ll essentially become part of the founding team, contributing to their vision and defining their pathway to reach profitability.

This means you’ll help them hire additional people as they grow and increase their impact, enable the scaling of their platform to bring additional customers, grow the number of users and add new functionality in line with customer needs.

Tech-wise they use Python, Django and React. They’re hoping to find someone with good cloud experience, though they’re not picky on which platform you’ve used. And PostgreSQL and good data/pipeline experience would be handy to have, too, as they have lots of data coming in from different places.

If you’re up for tackling intersecting social and environmental issues in a role as a founding member and CTO, this could be the one for you! Feel free to email, call or hit apply!

Location: Nottingham / Hybrid (Remote but in the office once / twice a month)
Salary: £55,000 – £65,000 + 10-15% Bonus (overall minimum package is over £80,000!)

There’s certainly no shortage of positions within Cloud, DevOps, SysAdmin, Platform or Site Reliability (SRE) vacancies right now, you’ve probably scrolled past a dozen or so already!

With technology seeing a massive surge of interest over the last few years, everyone is crying out for the heroes who can implement solutions that we mere mortals could never hope to understand.

But why would you join this company in particular?

Well, apart from excellent benefits, a competitive salary (up to £55,000 per year), and a level of support, progression, and development that is basically unmatched by all others in their market, they can offer you the one thing that really counts: the chance to create something truly unique!

With a brand that extends across the globe, it would be fair to say that this is the company that provides the FinTech solutions that power everything else when it comes to FinTech. They create solutions that power the way the entire western world views finance.

You’d be joining a team of around a dozen platform engineers in one of a few teams, helping to mentor the more junior guys and working closely with your senior colleagues to guide the deployment of complex cloud systems.

You’ll be a proficient DevOps Engineer but a few things I’ll be looking for are; a software focus with shell scripting exp e.g. Bash or an OO language such as Python / C# etc, Configuration automation tools (Chef, Puppet, Ansible, Salt, Cloud formation, Terraform etc), building automation and CI/CD pipelines and automation tools such as Rundeck, Jenkins, Octopus Deploy, Kubernetes, TeamCity etc. Although you’d be mainly working with AWS, they’re a multi-cloud organisation so you’d get exposure to Azure, GCP and (soon) Alibaba along the way.

They’re a big organisation, so this may not be the best place for people who want to shy away or hide in the corner. You don’t have to be the life of the party, but if you’re comfortable in your own skin and don’t mind sharing duties and explaining things to stakeholders from time to time, you’ll be just fine.

The nuts and bolts are available in more detail, but these are the key highlights! If you think you’re made of the right stuff and find out more, get in touch!

GreenTech Blockchain Engineer

GreenTech Blockchain Engineer

Location: Remote, UK based
Salary: Up to $150K

Blockchain isn’t something traditionally associated with climate impact and making a positive difference. More than a few would argue if anything blockchain or crypto-linked could deliver such an impact.

But there’s an important argument to be made ” in a world riddled with greenwashing ” for the transparency that blockchain can bring to projects and businesses.

It’s an undeniably exciting and fascinating field of work with immense potential.

Here we have a company making it easier for socially and environmentally driven individuals to find work in their desired field. To find jobs, projects and companies delivering the impact they seek.

Their platform enables people to search for projects and job roles, whether permanent, freelance or volunteering and apply. The blockchain element enables them and the business or group to show what is achieved, a completed body of work or outcome, demonstrating their credentials and action, to protect them against the heckles of greenwashing.

In many scenarios, individuals will be paid as normal, but there are also opportunities to earn certain crypto tokens, verified as being mined with renewable energy.

The company are globally dispersed with their base in Japan, but people spread around the world from India to the US, UAE and several in between.

The teams are driven by their passion for social and environmental action and have decades of experience helping refugees, working on renewables projects, tackling injustice and walking a path towards a healthier planet and society.

In terms of skills they’re looking for, experience with smart contracts is a key priority.

Following that, they use Solidity and Haskell. They are hoping to find someone with DevOps and automation experience to help establish an infrastructure that’s scalable on an international level, as they want their platform to benefit companies, NGOs and motivated people around the world, creating communities that can amplify their impacts.

In terms of Infrastructure, they’re using AWS, with some GraphQL and are hoping to integrate algorithms and data structures to make it easier for folks to find work that matches their skills and experience.

They’re tackling problems that so far, have only had local or regional solutions with limited reach. If you’re keen to solve problems that have scaled and growing benefits for our one and only planet and its most prolific species, please hit apply.

Software Engineer – PHP and AWS

Role: PHP and AWS Software Engineer

Salary: up to £65k plus benefits

Location: Fully remote. If you’d like to meet up with the team, they have a shared working space that you can go to in Nottingham, but there’s no pressure whatsoever to go into an office.

The company I’m recruiting for are a small, young company, founded in November 2020. One of the two co-founders is a massively well-known and respected person in the education industry, and the other comes from a strong fintech background in London’s investment banking scene.

The education specialist co-founder had an idea to create another education venture and his business partner was brought in, and they’ve not looked back since!

They have around 15 people in the company now, with a development team mainly based in Hungary. They want to bring development over to the UK, scale their platform, expand their team, and massively improve their technical estate and processes. They currently have most of their estate written in PHP, with some vue.js on the front end and some of their stuff hosted on AWS.

They want to bring someone into the business, starting with this role, who has really strong software engineering fundamentals- and ideally a background in PHP development, specifically- and AWS Cloud and DevOps skills to augment their deployment and CI/CD pipelines, who understands architecture challenges of software and suggest changes, which can be as radical as you like!

They want to refactor their code, can change the development language and toolset used internally, and want someone who has good experience with a relatively wide range of AWS services so they can start to make much better and wider use of the services they offer!

Finally, they need someone with good communication skills, so they can impart their knowledge, and collaborate well, with the rest of the tech team.

They have a shared working space set up in Nottingham City Centre but this role can be fully remote, depending on your preferences. They have fully embraced remote working and so you’ll not be pressured into attending an office!

Senior C# Developer

Role: Senior/ Lead C# Developer

Location: North Nottingham, hybrid, or mostly remote working arrangements available (twice per month in the office).

Salary: Up to £60k

This has to be one of my all-time favourite companies to recruit for; they are so lovely.

A long-standing client of Rebel’s, this company make me happy- they really value their staff.

I’m looking for a senior or strong mid-level C# Developer to join a wonderful small-medium-sized company in North Nottingham, just off the M1 J26.

Their beautiful offices have been done up professionally, and have barely been used, as they moved in just before Covid hit- so it would be really great for you to get in there and make yourself at home!

They have 3 product development teams, using different tech, ranging from C# MVC, SQL Server and angular to .Net Core and microservices, Azure, and react (moving to Blazor); this role is ideally going to be going into the latter team, so new shiny tech and best practice (SOLID, design patterns, you know the score) is where they are at, and what they’d like you to be proficient with.

The work you do here is needed and recognised- they are small enough that everyone knows everyone, collaborates, and generally has a great time at work. This is well-reflected in their very low staff turnover.

Work/life balance is something they are really passionate about, so they maintain a 35-hour working week, with core hours, and working from-home options to help with this. They also offer things like training budget, including Pluralsight subscriptions for engineers, and the option to upskill in different areas of business, for example, if you are a dev and want to move into QA or SysAdmin, they will support you to make that move.

They are of the mindset that human interaction and spontaneity is something that can’t be replaced by scheduled meetings, and since they all actually like each other, going into the office again when it’s safe to do so is something they are happy they’ve been able to get back to.

I could go on about them, but if you’ve read this far, nodding along and with a smile on your face, then apply now and we can have a more in-depth chat about your new role!

Role: iOS Developer

Location: Fully remote or Nottingham City Centre depending on your preferences

Salary: £65k

I’m working with a cracking company in Nottingham City Centre, I am looking for an iOS Developer to join their growing Mobile Development Team.

The environment there is fun, friendly, and cutting edge- everyone there is at the top of their game, loves what they do, and has a great time doing it! It’s a place where everyone bounces ideas off each other, is ahead of the technological curve in their respective area of expertise and has a laugh.

For this iOS Developer role, I’m ideally looking for someone who is technically very astute and logical, and who keeps their finger on the pulse of technological advancements. A glowing StackOverflow or GitHub account would be a great way of showing this side of you off! You’ll be seen as a technical authority, helping to inspire the team you’re in.

Technically, you’ll be proficient with iOS native development using Swift, and, ideally, Kotlin multiplatform, as that’s what they are moving towards.

In addition to this core skill set, I’d expect you to have experience with some surrounding tools and technologies such as version control (SVN/ Git), etc. You will also be very comfortable with DDD, and best practices including Design Patterns and Object Orientation.

Lead Developer

Role: Mid- Senior Developer (C# .Net Core)

Location: Fully remote (1/ fortnight in the office for team meetings)

Salary: up to £60k depending on the level of experience

If you’re fed up with getting passed rubbish projects, not having the support you need to do your job to the best of your ability, and having no real career progression or training, then you should apply for this role.

I know it’s a blunt opener, but I can’t think of a witty way to say; ‘you’re being underappreciated and that should stop because you’re great. Here’s how.’

I’m recruiting for a company in Leicester and they need a Developer.

They’ll be good for you.

They have some great projects to get stuck into- both internal and external- because a few years ago some really great, forward-thinking people in their tiny ‘IT dept’ decided to champion tech to the board of Directors, and they got the go-ahead to put tech at the heart of the company, and it’s working; they are doing better than ever before.

They have done -and are continuing to make the lives of their non-IT colleagues better by improving the systems/ apps they use better. They are delivering new external applications to ameliorate the experience of their users.

They use the latest iterations of the tech they use- C#, .Net Core, Azure, Azure DevOps, CosmosDB, Azure AD, Docker, Kubernetes, Entity Framework, microservices, etc. and believe in doing things the *right* way, both in terms of technical best practice and methodologically, with things like Agile and DevOps processes.

They have implemented an Agile methodology and team structure; so whilst the team structure is quite flat because of that- lots of cross-collaboration between PMs, BAs, Devs, Test, etc. they are a relatively large company, and there are progression routes a-plenty, with training offered, too.

They have a number of technical teams, filled with people that love what they do, and are blinking great at it.

They are genuinely committed to being one of the best companies to work for in terms of their people, tech, projects, and beautiful office (with free parking and lots of treats in the kitchen).

If you would like to learn more about this role, give me a shout at the contact details provided, or if you’re fully bought in, apply now!

Welcome to the next step in your career.

Front End Developer

Role: Front-End React Software Engineer

Salary: up to £70k

Location: Fully remote/ remote first. They have no office!

Would you like to use your tech skills to help reduce the damaging impact of transportation on the climate crisis?

Then this role and company might just well be what you’ve been looking for!

I am looking for a Front-End Software Engineer, with a specialism in React, JavaScript or TypeScript, and web development.

You will be going into a small, but growing, company and team; there are 2 developers there currently and around 10-15 people in the company as a whole. They are a talented and caring bunch of people from diverse backgrounds, who love what they do and believe strongly in the company’s mission.

Data IS the company’s product. They use it to augment behaviours within the transportation sector to reduce fuel costs and usage; helping the companies they work with to save money and, most importantly, to have a significant, positive impact on the environment.

Due to the nature of the business, having a passion for data would be a major advantage! An ability and desire to design, build, and implement data-driven applications that consume service-oriented RESTful APIs to drive functionality and optimize front-end performance would be really desirable in this role!

As they are a start-up, they have virtually no tech debt, all their projects are greenfield; making this a veritable utopia for developers! They always endeavour to improve a system before building new features on it; something that I’ve not seen many other companies do, and that speaks volumes about their general approach to their tech – sustainability, efficiency, and scalability are paramount.

To give you an idea of what you can expect to be doing in this role; you’ll be tasked with taking ownership of the User Interface (UI) for their web app and email templates, and for bringing the user experience (UX) designed by the team, to life. You will also be implementing and overseeing a front-end testing process that ensures their product looks and works great across all scenarios and devices!

They like to have good debates and technical conversations around best practices and how they can continuously improve how they do things, so if you’re the type of person to have strong views on these kinds of things- with enough humility to have your mind changed, and accept where other peoples’ ideas might be a better solution for the problem at hand- then you’ll fit right in!

They all work entirely remotely and don’t have an office, so you’ll need to be happy and able to comfortably work from home. They do like to socialise though! So in-person meetup suggestions- perhaps in a hot desk environment or a meeting for a coffee- would be welcomed.

If this sounds right up your street, then please get in touch to find out more, or apply today!

Then here you go- your ideal role is here! 😁

The text above describes them very well; they are a FinTech company who have great financial backing, a great company vibe, the latest tech and interesting work.

They are after someone to expand their existing Dev team in making top-quality software solutions for their customers.

Their tech stack is centred around C#, .Net Core, and Vue. They are after someone who uses these technologies enthusiastically, has worked in an enterprise environment, is happy working in an environment where their CI/ CD pipeline is set up, where they run all their applications in the cloud (Azure), and uses a variety of data storage solutions (relational and NoSQL).

They work in a proper Agile way, so experience and comfort working in this environment are paramount (seems like this shouldn’t be something I shouldn’t have to specify in this day and age, but there are so many companies out there that have adapted Agile so significantly that it’s something akin to FRAgile haha!)

They really do care about their people, so passion, effective communication, and a great attitude are necessary attributes to have for everyone they bring into the company. Enthusiasm, a curious and entrepreneurial nature, and a desire to make the best software in the best way and for the right reasons are paramount in this role.
