Software Engineer (Platform)

This role reports to our Head of Platform, Jack. Working with him and the platform engineering pod, you'll accelerate the development of algo1's platform, turning enterprise-grade platform expectations into software that our product pods and customers rely on.

You'll work primarily in the backend and on the infrastructure that underpins it, but the shopper and retailer experience will never be far from your mind.

Delivering a great platform means product engineers can ship quality, scalable solutions; product, design, and non-technical colleagues can prototype ideas quickly using our application code and production data as a baseline; shoppers have responsive, personalised in-store experiences; and retailers and brands can configure, monitor, and analyse their campaigns across potentially billions of data points.

We're agentic-first. Every engineer has access to frontier AI tooling and our own coding harness, and we expect you to use them to move faster, attempt more ambitious work, and stay fully accountable for what you ship.

We're looking for a Senior Software Engineer, though Staff engineers and ambitious early-career engineers with strong platform instincts will also be considered.
