Job description

Senior Software Engineer (Clubhouse)

Senior Software Engineer

Belfast (Hybrid) | Competitive salary + benefits

TeamFeePay (TFP) is one of the biggest grassroots football club management platforms in the UK. We support over 2,000 football clubs and 250,000+ coaches, players, parents and guardians on the platform, and we’re now expanding into Italy, Spain and the rest of Europe. We’re a scale‑up growing rapidly, and engineering is core to that growth.

About our Engineering Team

We're organised into three squads: Pitchside Experience, Clubhouse Experience and Platform. This role sits in Clubhouse Experience: the squad focused on club administration: the tools club admins and committees use to run their club day-to-day.

Our engineers come from a variety of different backgrounds. As long as you enjoy learning new things, we'd love to talk to you: we do not ask for formal qualifications or degree requirements for any of our engineering roles.

Your day-to-day

• Own the design and delivery of Clubhouse Experience features end-to-end, across our React Native app and web front end.

• Show strong design judgement on ambiguous problems, and know when a simple solution beats a clever one.

• Mentor other engineers and raise the quality bar in reviews and design discussions.

• Work closely with product, design and other squads to turn vague problems into clear, sequenced plans.

You should apply if

• you have React or React Native frontend experience, or the desire to learn it

• you have strong experience of software development

• you're comfortable across the stack your squad owns, not just the frontend

• you have a product mindset: you're comfortable critiquing designs and understanding user journeys to help land on the best solution for coaches, players and club admins, not just implementing what's handed to you

• you enjoy mentoring and levelling up the engineers around you

You don't need prior Ruby experience to apply. If you're a strong backend engineer with experience in another language (e.g. Node, Python, Java, PHP, Go), we'd love to hear from you: we'll support you in picking up Rails. (Our Platform Senior Software Engineer and Principal Software Engineer roles are the exception and do require hands-on Ruby/Rails experience.)

What you'll be working on

We rely heavily on the following tools and technologies:

• React Native for our mobile applications

• We’re moving to React for our web front end, but we’re currently using Rails with Turbo, Hotwire and Stimulus

• Ruby on Rails to write our API layer (there’s a highly recommended Rails tutorial here)

• Postgres for our database layer

• Stripe to power payments: membership fees, club shop and fundraising all run through it

• Currently our infrastructure is on Heroku, but we’ll be moving off this soon: join us and help shape where

Level & career progression

We're hiring at IC3 (Senior Engineer) on our engineering career ladder. Scope: a squad. You'll handle ambiguous, open-ended technical problems and be a technical anchor for the team. We interview across the whole framework, so if you're not sure exactly what level fits, talk to your recruiter and we'll figure it out together.

About the role

What's in it for you

• Competitive salary + benefits

• Belfast tech hub, hybrid working, right beside the Titanic Museum

• Free car parking and office snacks

• Flexible working hours

• Access to the latest and greatest AI models to help you get your work done faster

Interview process

Our interview process involves:

1. 15 min screening call with our talent team

1. 45 min interview with our CTO, Steve

1. 45 min interview with our CPO, James

1. Take-home task or pair coding exercise
