Role: Senior Software Engineer (Data & Platform) @ VC Firm Location: London – Hybrid (3 days) Compensation: Up to £200,000 + equity

We’re working with a high-performing venture capital firm building a proprietary technology platform that sits at the heart of how they identify, evaluate, and partner with exceptional companies. The engineering function operates like an internal startup: small, fast-moving, and deeply embedded in the investment process.

As a Senior Software Engineer, you’ll take full ownership of the firm’s core data platform — the primary day-to-day tool used by partners to source and assess opportunities. You’ll work end-to-end across data, backend, and product experience, with significant autonomy to shape both the technical direction and how the platform evolves over time.

What you’ll do Own and evolve a mission-critical internal data platform used daily by senior stakeholders. Build and maintain data pipelines, backend services, and user-facing product features. Work hands-on across the stack, from Python-based data workflows to web application front-ends. Design scalable, maintainable systems that support complex, real-world decision making. Deploy and operate systems in the cloud, taking responsibility for reliability and performance.
