Senior Software Engineer (UK remote)

We’re a small engineering team.

Senior engineers at Budibase are expected to be hands-on and close to the product.

You’ll have significant autonomy over how problems are solved and will work directly with product, design, and other engineers to decide what we build and how we build it.

The kind of person we’re looking for

We’re looking for an experienced Software Engineer with strong engineering fundamentals and good product instincts.

You might be a good fit if you:

• Have significant professional software engineering experience
• Have strong JavaScript or TypeScript fundamentals
• Are comfortable working across frontend and backend
• Have owned substantial product or technical work from problem through to production
• Can work effectively with ambiguity and make sound technical decisions
• Care about usability, reliability, maintainability, and product quality
• Can break complex problems into pragmatic solutions and ship them
• Can identify when a system needs deeper technical investment and when a simpler solution is sufficient
• Use AI coding tools and are actively exploring how AI changes software development
• Communicate technical decisions clearly and work effectively with product, design, and engineering

What success looks like

You’ll become an owner of significant parts of Budibase rather than simply contributing individual features.

You’ll take ambiguous product and technical problems, understand the underlying need, help determine the right solution, build it, and get it successfully into users’ hands.

Over time, we’d expect you to raise the quality of the engineering around you, through the decisions you make, the systems you build, and the way you work with the rest of the team.
