NearTech is pleased to be working with a Series A funded start-up in the environment space. Having been established for 18-months, they’ve already seen good growth within their flagship data-driven technology hub and good growth with clients in the trade and import/export sphere. Having grown the team from the ground up to a team of 4, they’re now looking for a Head of Engineering to steer the team and work in tandem with the CEO as the company moves forward.


Within the role, you can expect to:

  1. Oversee the development and continued implementation of their product solution
  2. Lead and mentor a small engineering team, helping to foster a culture of natural curiosity, growth mindset, and driving excellence

  4. Recruit, onboard, and train new hires within the software team, helping to establish a QA function as well
  5. Manage project timelines, department budgets and resources until project delivery

The company is, at its heart, data driven, using data tools such as Python, Snowflake, and accompanying data science stack. Their Engineering team compliments this, by using the following:

Python, Django, Fast API, JavaScript (React), RabbitMQ, PostgreSQL, PyTest, Docker, Kubernetes.


Whilst the business does useAWS, they’d love for a candidate to be a real expert in it, withCI/CD, S3, RDS, EDS, EKS, Terraform.


Whilst this is a managerial role, due to the nature of the business, this role will be 50|50 hands on | hands off. Candidates applying should come from strong Python / Django coding backgrounds, and happy working in a 50|50 fashion.
