• Collaborate with clients, engineers, product managers and client-facing teams to understand customer needs and translate them into features.  
• Contribute to the delivery of customer-first apps on our mobile-first enterprise B2B platform.  
• Help design and implement solutions with beautiful UIs, powerful APIs and useful AI Agents.  
• Deliver high-quality, maintainable code with a focus on Laravel and Vue.js (plus exposure to our wider stack: Python, MySQL).

The process you'll be committing to 

For those applications that look a great fit, we'll want to talk to you (on Zoom):  

Stage 1: An informal chat with our CTO. Add a bit more colour to that CV, talk about SaaS and how the products you’ve worked on have solved problems [15 mins]  

Stage 2: Technical interview. We don’t do graded technical tests, we talk to you about technical problems and want to understand how you would approach them. You’ll meet members from the product engineering team [75 mins]  

Stage 3: Leadership Interview. The final stage. Meet the senior leadership team. The focus here is on cultural fit. We use this time to answer: Are you right for Expansive and, equally importantly, is Expansive right for you? [75 mins]  

How to apply  

We believe diverse teams are stronger teams, and not all routes to this role will be the same. We encourage applications from anyone who thinks this might be right for them. You must be based in the UK and willing to travel to Manchester, Birmingham and London several times a year. We are not in a position to offer visa sponsorship.  

To apply simply:

📧 Email joel@expansive.co.uk or hit the "apply now" (on LinkedIn) 

And finally  

We appreciate the time and effort it takes to apply for roles properly so know it can be tempting to send in a generic application and hope for the best. Expansive is a small company, we read each CV but there will be hundreds and to stand out you might need to do something different. We’ll let you decide how to do that but if you really want to be considered for this job, make sure we know it 😊  

Good Luck!  

P.S. We get hundreds of applications for each role. We can't commit to respond to each one. If you don't hear in a few days then we've decided you're not quite what we're looking for this time.
