About the Business

Wedo is working with a PE backed, fast-growing, technology-led organisation that is transforming how physical assets are captured, verified and managed across complex real-world environments.

Blending proprietary software, AI-enabled workflows and data-rich operational platforms, the business delivers faster, smarter and more accurate outputs for enterprise and regulated clients.

Its solutions support everything from technical reporting and compliance outputs through to advanced modelling, operational intelligence and digital asset management.

With strong backing, international expansion plans and a clear product roadmap, this is a high-momentum stage to join.


The Opportunity

This role suits someone who's a Senior IC Software Engineer or Tech Lead to take ownership of a mission-critical internal platform that underpins operational delivery and connects multiple engineering teams.


This role suits someone who enjoys taking products from “it works” to “it scales brilliantly.”

You’ll lead a lean but high-impact engineering team, improve technical maturity, increase platform robustness and help ensure the product can support wider commercial growth.

You’ll be trusted to own delivery, technical direction and day-to-day decision making, allowing senior leadership to focus on broader strategic priorities.


What You’ll Be Responsible For

  • Own the technical roadmap, stability and ongoing development of a core internal platform
  • Lead and mentor a small engineering team (currently permanent + contractor resource)
  • Stay hands-on in the codebase while providing leadership and direction
  • Improve platform robustness, resilience and release confidence
  • Drive engineering best practice across CI/CD, testing, code quality and observability
  • Manage incidents and production issues with calm ownership
  • Partner closely with Product, Operations and wider engineering teams
  • Help shape future team growth as the platform expands
  • Contribute ideas around automation, workflow efficiency and commercial scalability


Current Technology Environment

  • TypeScript
  • React
  • Java
  • CI/CD pipelines
  • Unit / integration testing
  • Cloud-hosted product environments


What Good Looks Like in the First 12 Months

  • Platform becomes more stable, scalable and trusted internally
  • Roadmap delivery improves in pace and predictability
  • Reduced dependency on senior leadership for day-to-day technical decisions
  • Stronger engineering standards across testing and release processes
  • Clear ownership of production support and incidents
  • Team capability strengthened with a respected technical leader in place


We’d Love to See

  • Previous experience as a Tech Lead, Engineering Lead or Senior Full Stack Engineer stepping into leadership
  • Strong hands-on capability with TypeScript / React environments
  • Experience improving legacy or fragile systems
  • Ability to balance roadmap delivery with platform stability
  • Comfortable leading small teams while remaining hands-on
  • Strong communication skills with both technical and non-technical stakeholders


Culture Fit Matters

The business values people who are:

  • Humble and collaborative
  • Low ego, high ownership
  • Curious and open to learning
  • Calm under pressure
  • Helpful team players
  • Pragmatic problem solvers
