Job description

Want to design standout digital products and then actually build them?

You'll join a design and engineering business working at the very top end of the residential market, delivering one-of-a-kind projects for some of the world's most high-end residential clients.

They've built a whole business around exceptional design, now they want their software to match it.

As a Design Engineer, you'll own both sides of that challenge. You'll decide how their digital products should look, feel and work, and then build them!

You're not joining to implement someone else's Figma designs or work through an existing product roadmap. You'll have creative ownership from initial idea and interface design through to working software.

You won't have to wait for someone to tell you what to build. You'll spot problems across the business, come up with products that could solve them and have the freedom to build them.

What they're looking for:

• Exceptional visual design judgement (a portfolio would go a long way!)
• Experience designing and building polished digital products
• Strong full-stack development skills across React and Node / Python
• The autonomy to take loosely defined ideas from concept to production

What's in it for you:

• Decide what gets built, not just how
• Build new products from scratch
