Job Description

Metamindz is a fast-growing UK-based IT software company. We help by providing fractional CTOs as-a-service, building digital products, hiring technical talent, and conducting tech due diligence.

We’re looking for a Senior/Lead Full Stack Engineer to join one of our most exciting product partners. This is an early-stage ed-tech company working on a powerful tool to support neurodiverse learners in schools, starting with automated dyslexia and cognitive profiling. In the short term, you’ll be building fast, working hands-on across the stack, and solving meaningful problems that directly impact students.

This is not a support role. You’ll be at the heart of the product and decision-making.

Tech Stack: React, Next.js, GraphQL, Supabase, Vercel, and Google Cloud Platform

Key requirements:

• Proven experience leading dev teams while remaining hands-on with code
• Comfortable with light DevOps tasks in a fast-paced startup environment
• Adaptable mindset and ability to switch context quickly
• Passion for mentoring and building a high-performing engineering culture
• Curiosity and excitement around using AI/LLMs to improve real user outcomes

Responsibilities:

• Build and ship features hands-on using React, Next.js, GraphQL, and Supabase
• Own and shape the product’s technical architecture for scalability and maintainability
• Make key technical decisions and contribute to long-term product strategy
• Help define and grow the engineering team, including recruitment and culture
• Collaborate closely across teams to deliver a fast, reliable, and user-focused platform

What We Offer:

• A meaningful mission — build technology that directly improves the lives of neurodiverse students around the world
• A leadership role with full ownership of the technical direction and architecture
• Remote-first setup with flexible working hours and optional trips to London
• A chance to shape and grow the engineering team from the ground up
• Collaborative and purpose-driven team passionate about real impact through innovation
