<h3>Essential Experience & Capabilities</h3>

Software Engineer (Full Stack, Polyglot) 
Our client is looking to hire 2 Software Engineers to join a high-impact, in-house engineering team supporting a nationwide business operating at scale. 
This is not a “build for the backlog” role. The systems you’ll work on directly shape how customers discover products, how thousands of colleagues do their jobs, and how a multi?billion?pound operation stays efficient day to day. 
Why this role? 
You’ll get breadth, ownership, and real-world impact:
<ul>
	<li style="margin: 0.0cm 0.0cm 8.0pt;">Build across the stack: Go, C#, TypeScript, Python
	<li style="margin: 0.0cm 0.0cm 8.0pt;">Deploy and run in AWS
	<li style="margin: 0.0cm 0.0cm 8.0pt;">Work with AI tools as part of your daily workflow — not a future experiment
	<li style="margin: 0.0cm 0.0cm 8.0pt;">Ship regularly and see your work used immediately
</ul>
There are no silos here. Engineers move across services, frontend, infrastructure, and tooling. If you like variety and solving real problems, you’ll feel at home. 
What you’ll be doing

<ul>
	<li style="margin: 0.0cm 0.0cm 8.0pt;">Building and evolving customer-facing platforms, internal tools, and operational systems
	<li style="margin: 0.0cm 0.0cm 8.0pt;">Working across APIs, services, frontends, and data pipelines
	<li style="margin: 0.0cm 0.0cm 8.0pt;">Pairing, reviewing code, and solving problems as a team
	<li style="margin: 0.0cm 0.0cm 8.0pt;">Shipping fast, learning quickly, and improving continuously
</ul>
What we’re looking for 
You don’t need to tick every box, but you should recognise yourself in most of these:

<ul>
	<li style="margin: 0.0cm 0.0cm 8.0pt;">AI-first mindset – you already use tools like Copilot, Cursor, or similar
	<li style="margin: 0.0cm 0.0cm 8.0pt;">AI in production – experience embedding LLMs, APIs, or agents into products
	<li style="margin: 0.0cm 0.0cm 8.0pt;">Automation / robotics experience – from RPA to physical systems
	<li style="margin: 0.0cm 0.0cm 8.0pt;">Cloud-native – AWS or Azure in real production environments
	<li style="margin: 0.0cm 0.0cm 8.0pt;">Polyglot engineer – comfortable picking up and switching languages
	<li style="margin: 0.0cm 0.0cm 8.0pt;">Full-stack capability – frontend, backend, APIs, data
	<li style="margin: 0.0cm 0.0cm 8.0pt;">Hands-on builder – scripts, CLIs, background workers, not just web apps
	<li style="margin: 0.0cm 0.0cm 8.0pt;">Modern architecture – serverless, event-driven systems, or breaking apart monoliths
	<li style="margin: 0.0cm 0.0cm 8.0pt;">Data-aware – SQL, NoSQL, and/or data pipelines
</ul>
How we work

<ul>
	<li style="margin: 0.0cm 0.0cm 8.0pt;">Psychological safety is non-negotiable
	<li style="margin: 0.0cm 0.0cm 8.0pt;">We pair, collaborate, and share ownership
	<li style="margin: 0.0cm 0.0cm 8.0pt;">No hero culture, no gatekeeping
	<li style="margin: 0.0cm 0.0cm 8.0pt;">Problems are surfaced early and solved together
</ul>
 

<ul>
	<li style="margin: 0.0cm 0.0cm 8.0pt;">Hybrid (3 days/week in the North East HQ)
	<li style="margin: 0.0cm 0.0cm 8.0pt;">Remote considered, with monthly on-site time
</ul>
Open to a range of experience levels

Geopura is a growing, innovative clean energy technologies company who enable the production, transport, and use of zero-emissions fuels with innovative and commercially viable technology to decarbonise the global economy. Partnered with Siemens Energy, they are committed to 100% clean, renewable energy, independent from the grid, wherever and whenever it’s needed

Clean energy without limits

The organisation’s headcount plan was ambitious, and required an expanded recruitment capability to deliver it, but with varying recruitment volumes throughout the year, they needed a flexible solution. Geopura considered hiring an in-house recruiter, but the niche roles they were looking to fill, combined with the variability of their recruitment requirements and limited employer brand within the market meant that this solution wasn’t viable. They also considered expanding their use of recruitment agencies, but the unpredictable costs involved in this were difficult to align with their plans.

Geopura’s growth was starting to accelerate in 2022, but that came with its own problems

By placing one of our talent partners on-site, on a scalable basis from two to five days per week, we were able to optimise their recruitment process from start to finish and help them achieve their headcount plan. Our process started with an in-depth audit of their recruitment process, from job specification writing and job board usage analysis to interview technique and offer management. From there we took detailed briefs of the roles on offer and got to work sourcing candidates directly through our talent partner, with assistance from our wider, specialist recruitment team, and created a preferred supplierlist for the specialist roles we didn’t have the expertise to fill ourselves.

To assist Geopura in their ambitious growth journey, Jackson Hogg proposed our flagship Talent Partnership service.

Our talent partner assisted in creating an apprenticeship scheme to foster new talent, and by optimising the recruitment process and controlling all activities centrally, time to offer was reduced by 22%. This all allowed Geopurato achieve their headcount plans, continue their growth journey and focus on their innovative technologies rather than recruitment. Due to the success of their first 12 months, Geoupura extended their contract by a further 12 months.

Through 12 months of Talent Partnership, Geopura hired 25 people, 92% of whom were sourced either directly or by Jackson Hogg.
