Role
Who you are
- Enthusiastic engineer with 4+ years working on web-based projects
- Professional experience in a modern server-side language — if you don’t know Python, we’ll help you learn. Strong software principles are key (SOLID, DRY, and so on)
- Professional experience building web-based single page applications, using Typescript/React, or equivalent (such as Angular/ES6 Javascript)
- You’re effective both working independently and collaborating in a team, delivering new functionality from concept to production ready
- You will be comfortable working with cloud infrastructure, both confident to make changes and investigate when problems arise
- You have experience working with datasets larger than 100k entries, can query a database with SQL, and have minimal understand of query optimisation
- You find test driven development is a useful approach to solving problems
- You are always looking for ways to improve, whether it’s refactoring a function, optimising our processes, or learning new skills
What the job involves
- The Product Team focuses on delivering features and using technology that will make the biggest impact to the business — whether that is implementing machine learning models or building sophisticated map-based user interfaces
- Using our unique internal datasets, we’re often building functionality to make automated investment decisions thousands of times a day
Application process
- You apply for the role, completing a form so we can find out more about you
- For applications that progress, we arrange a 20 min call to discuss the role and your experience further
- Following this, we ask you to complete our take-home exercise. This should take 1 hour, with a follow-up discussion afterwards
- The final stage combines a pairing session, where we spend 40 mins working together on a small problem, with an interview to understand more about your experience and motivation
Salary benchmarks
Our take
Bricklane is a property investment platform that enables investors to efficiently and flexibly access the UK’s largest asset class – residential property.
The company claims to be the most tax-efficient way to invest in UK residential property. It provides an attractive opportunity for a younger generation that want to enter the property market, but cannot afford to purchase an entire residential property themselves.
The company is facing competition from similar technology-enabled property investment platforms, like Property Partner, but its backing (and exclusive data) from Zoopla helps Bricklane to stand out. In 2023 it doubled its UK footprint and is taking aim at environmentally inefficient homes that it plans to elevate in value through eco-friendly upgrades.
