EdTech - Outside IR35
I’m supporting an EdTech start‑up doing some genuinely exciting work in the learning space, and they’re looking for a Full‑Stack Python Engineer to join on a 6‑month contract.
This is a hands‑on build role, working closely with the Head of Tech and contributing directly to core product features. It’s mostly back‑end‑focused, but there will be some front‑end React work initially, so full‑stack experience is important.
A strong Python engineer (4–5 years) who’s comfortable owning back‑end services, understands micro services, and can support the front‑end when needed. Start‑up experience or the mindset to work autonomously is key.
- Designing and building back‑end services in Python
- Developing scalable micro‑services
- Building and consuming RESTful APIs (FastAPI)
- Working with relational and NoSQL databases
- Supporting React frontend development (initially)
- Collaborating closely with product, frontend, and DevOps
- Writing clean, maintainable code and contributing to reviews
- Following best practices around CI / CD and automated testing
- 3+ years back‑end engineering experience
- Strong Python skills
- Experience with FastAPI
- Microservices / distributed systems experience
- Database experience (PostgreSQL, MySQL, MongoDB, etc.)
- React experience (commercial or strong hands‑on)
- Knowledge of Docker / Kubernetes
- Exposure to AWS, GCP, or Azure
- £400 / day – Outside IR35
- 6 months (likely extension)
- Remote (UK)
- Start ASAP
