Location : London (E1)
Hybrid working as standard:
2 days a week in the office, the other 3 days remote (or office if you prefer) About the team that drives our platform We're a PropTech scale-up who have created a revolutionary, cloud-based software platform to bring together agents, landlords and tenants online and process all the paperwork electronically. Our small, self-organising squads build the platforms and tools to help us achieve our mission. We're disrupting an industry, so there's plenty of thorny, real-world problems to solve on behalf of the agents, landlords and tenants that use our system. If you want to develop new skills, there'll be plenty of opportunities: many of our current team joined as back-end or front-end developers, and are now working across the full stack. We are keen advocates of agile delivery; we work closely with our stakeholders and use Kanban to iterate quickly on customer feedback. You'll be learning every day, from the team around you and senior members of the team who you'll have daily exposure to. The Tech we use Our platform is built with multiple PHP 8 applications running on Symfony (5.4/7.*), all deployed within Docker containers on a Kubernetes cluster hosted on AWS. Data is persisted in a MYSQL (AWS Aurora) database. Additionally, we leverage AWS Lambda and Amazon API Gateway for running supplementary services. Our UI is a mixture of jQuery and React (using Typescript) and we’re actively pushing to have everything in React. We use Github for version control and Github Actions for building, testing and deploying code to the staging and production environments. ABOUT THE ROLE Our mission is to provide the best renting experience in the world and you'll play a key part in helping us achieve this by making sure our platform is best in class. No two days are ever the same at Goodlord so what you’ll be up to will vary. The pace we move at also means priorities will change and you’ll need to be comfortable with this (we’ll support you!). But these are the things that will be core to your role and will keep you busy. Work with Product Managers, business stakeholders and other Engineers to understand end user problems and implement appropriate solutions Address issues raised within the application that prevent users from achieving their goals Identify bottlenecks in the development process and suggest/implement improvements Continuously improve the code base to make it easier to understand and more fun to work with Perform self defined tasks geared towards your personal and professional development ABOUT YOU You should apply if you have: Significant commercial experience in building complex web applications using Symfony or Laravel Ability to write good, clean and well-tested code Proficient working with relational databases such as MySql and PostgreSql Experience working in an agile team with a delivery focus and a keen eye on what the customer needs Willingness to learn new technologies and engineering practices Any experience with the following would be a bonus: Typescript, React, Behat, Docker, Kubernetes, Terraform and AWS Lambda. And Goodlord is for you if: You want to work in an environment where your input is valued and you can make a real impact You’re a pragmatic craftsperson who strives to find the right balance between quality and delivery You have a passion for solving end user problems, big or small You understand the challenges and rewards that come with working in a startup environment and look forward to taking them on ABOUT US We started Goodlord because we wanted to make renting simple and transparent for everyone involved: the agent, landlord and tenant. We knew Generation Rent would lead to more tenants, with higher digital expectations and we were confident we could provide a solution. And we did. Like all startups it’s been a bit of a roller coaster journey, but we’re now stronger than ever, with around 3000 letting agents using the platform, exciting & varied product lines and 350 Goodlordians across the group supporting the mission! Our purpose - building the best rental experience in the world - is clear to everyone, and so too is the fact that people are central to achieving that mission; we have worked hard to make Goodlord great so we’re proud to have been ranked 10th in the UK's Best Workplaces 2022 - Large category. WHY YOU’LL LOVE BEING A GOODLORDIAN: Aside from the role, the people, our culture and our mission, we have some other things that make Goodlord a pretty awesome place to be. Here’s a few favourites amongst Goodlordians: Grow with Goodlord:
