Company Description

AxiaFunder ( www.axiafunder.com ) is a fast growing award-winning innovative online litigation funding platform connecting investors with pre-vetted commercial litigation opportunities that we believe have the potential to generate attractive risk-adjusted returns. Our track record can be viewed here: https://www.axiafunder.com/track-record. We are the only, for profit, crowdfunding litigation platform in Europe.

We are currently seeking a Full Stack Software Developer to join the development team. Initial compensation will be in the range £40,000-£150,000 per annum, plus bonus and stock options, depending on experience, with scope for rapid progression subject to performance.

In our selection criteria, we place a premium on academic achievement.

Daily tasks will include interacting with the PostgreSQL database (via Supabase), building and integrating frontend and backend features, collaborating with cross-functional teams, participating in code reviews, and ensuring the technical feasibility of UI/UX designs.
