ABOUT THE CLIENT

We are supporting a fast growing company building cutting edge AI solutions for the sports industry. The business is small, ambitious, and moving quickly, building real time, data rich products that analyse and predict the sports millions of people care about.

This is an environment where engineers have genuine ownership and a direct impact on product direction and technical architecture from day one. If you love building across the whole stack and want to be a builder rather than a cog in a machine, this is for you.

THE ROLE, SENIOR FULL STACK ENGINEER

As a Senior Full Stack Engineer, you will own the full product lifecycle, from building intuitive, performant web interfaces in Next.js and React through to designing robust Python back ends that handle real time, data rich workloads.

This is a high-ownership, hands-on role in a small team, where you run and deploy your own work and have a direct line to product decisions.

KEY RESPONSIBILITIES

• Build intuitive, performant web interfaces using React, Next.js and TypeScript
• Design and maintain sophisticated APIs using Python and FastAPI
• Work with real time data streaming, including SSE and WebSockets
• Translate complex sports data and logic into clean, efficient code
• Own the front end lifecycle independently, from development to deployment
• Collaborate with a small, high-calibre team to iterate quickly on new features

ESSENTIAL EXPERIENCE

• Strong full stack experience across modern web development (stack is flexible if you are happy working with Python, FastAPI and React)
• Solid front end skills with React and Next.js, plus Python back end experience
• Experience with PostgreSQL, Docker and AWS
• A good understanding of asynchronous programming and real time data
• Strong system design skills, able to solve complex problems from first principles
• Comfortable with the autonomy and pace of a small team, happy owning your own deployments
• A genuine sports fan who understands the game and the data behind it is ideal
• Right to work in the UK, no sponsorship is available for this role

WHAT'S ON OFFER

• Salary up to £100,000 depending on experience
• The chance to build real time AI products in the sports industry you love
• Full ownership across the stack and real influence over product direction
• Work at the cutting edge of how AI and LLMs are changing sport
• A fast-paced, evolving environment where no two weeks are the same
