 &pound;100k&ndash;&pound;140k + Equity
 
 
 
 Company Description
 
 
 
 Fleek is a ~$50M Series B startup backed by a16z and Y Combinator, building the AI-native infrastructure for the $350B global secondhand fashion market.
 
 
 
 Job Description
 
 
 
 You will join the Growth squad to own the core ecommerce journey, building backend systems for discovery, payments, and seller tools. Reporting to the CTO, you'll integrate the proprietary FleekSort AI classification engine into a marketplace handling millions of items. This role is about digitizing a broken, manual supply chain at global scale.
 
 
 
 Location
 
 
 
 London, UK
 
 
 
 Why this role is remarkable
 
 
 
 <ul>
 <li>
 Work on a genuinely novel technical challenge by integrating FleekSort, a custom AI model (not a GPT wrapper) that digitizes opaque secondhand inventory.
 </li>
 <li>
 Join a hyper-growth company tripling year-on-year with ~$50M in funding from top-tier investors like a16z, Y Combinator, and HV Capital.
 </li>
 <li>
 Deliver massive environmental impact by building systems that have already saved 9 million items from landfills and are scaling to serve thousands of global retailers.
 
 
 </li>
 </ul>
 
 What You Will Do
 
 
 
 <ul>
 <li>
 Architect and own the end-to-end ecommerce journey, including item discovery, search, multi-currency payment systems, and credit infrastructure.
 </li>
 <li>
 Design and scale backend services to handle over 1 million unique items per month, connecting AI grading engines to real-time marketplace workflows.
 </li>
 <li>
 Collaborate in a senior product squad to translate complex international logistics and supply chain challenges into reliable, high-performance software.
 
 
 </li>
 </ul>
 
 The ideal candidate
 
 
 
 <ul>
 <li>
 Has 6-10 years of professional backend experience, ideally using Node.js and TypeScript, with a proven track record of shipping high-traffic production systems.
 </li>
 <li>
 Possesses a product engineering mindset from a consumer-facing marketplace or fintech background, focusing on commercial outcomes rather than just infrastructure.
 </li>
 <li>
 Thrives in early-stage, fast-paced environments (Seed to Series B) and utilizes AI tools like Cursor or Copilot as a force multiplier in their workflow.
 
 
 </li>
 </ul>
 
 Who are Jack &amp; Jill?
 
 
 
 Ok, I'll go first. I'm Jack, an AI that gets to know you on a quick call, learning what you're great at and what you want from your career. Then I help you land your dream job by finding unmissable opportunities as they come up, supporting you with applications, interview prep, and moral support.
 
 
 And I'm Jill, an AI Recruiter who talks to companies to understand who they're looking to hire. Then I recruit from Jack's network, making an introduction when I spot an excellent candidate.
 
 
 
 How does this work?
 
 
 
 <ul>
 <li>
 Jack's an AI agent for job searching and career coaching. He works for you.
 </li>
 <li>
 Jill is the AI recruiter working for the company. She recruits from Jack's network.
 </li>
 <li>
 If it's a match and the company wants to meet you, they'll make the intro. In the meantime, if you'd like, Jack will send you excellent alternatives.
 
 
 </li>
 </ul>
 
 We never post fake jobs
 
 
 
 This isn't a trick. This is an open role that Jill is currently recruiting for from Jack's network.
 
 
 Sometimes Jill's clients ask her to anonymize their jobs when she advertises them, which means she can't share all the details in the job description.
 
 
 We appreciate this can make them look a bit suspect, but there isn't much we can do about it.
 
 
 Give Jack a spin! You could land this role. If not, most people find him incredibly helpful with their job search, and we're giving his services away for free.

 why
 
 we build things,
 
 how
 
 we build them, and
 
 what
 
 the future of our product looks like.

 Prefer a slow or highly predictable pace we move quickly and value action
 </li>
 <li>
 Feel uncomfortable owning projects end-to-end and being accountable for outcomes
 </li>
 <li>
 Prefer maintaining the status quo we challenge assumptions and improve constantly
 </li>
 <li>
 Want a heavily structured environment we&rsquo;re still building processes as we grow
 </li>
 <li>
 Struggle with ambiguity or prefer prescriptive direction you&rsquo;ll get context, but you&rsquo;ll need to figure things out
 </li>
 <li>
 Wait for others to take initiative this is a proactive, high-performance team
 
 
 </li>
 </ul>
 
 Not sure if you meet 100% of the requirements?
 
 
 
 That&rsquo;s okay, careers aren&rsquo;t linear. If you have a strong technical foundation, solid backend experience, and enthusiasm for fullstack engineering in a fast-moving startup, we&rsquo;d love to hear from you. Just make sure you feel confident contributing meaningfully from day one.

<li>Practical use of AI coding assistants for development, testing, refactoring, and troubleshooting.</li>
<li>Fluency with GitHub workflows, including pull requests, code review, branching, and CI/CD collaboration.</li>
<li>Senior-level judgment to turn ambiguous operational problems into clean, maintainable technical solutions.</li>
</ul>
Helpful Domain Experience
<ul>
<li>Experience in contact center, telephony, customer support, or workflow automation environments.</li>
<li>Exposure to platforms such as Genesys Cloud, Twilio, Five9, NICE, Zoom Contact Center, or Avaya.</li>

Software Engineer Python SQL - Market Data

Applied Computing

<div>Applied Computing was founded in 2024 to build Orbital, a physics-informed foundation model for energy operations. We&rsquo;re live across oil and gas, refineries, and petrochemicals, working towards our mission: sustainable abundance for a growing planet. 
The hydrocarbon industry keeps the world running. But its complexity has left operators tied to legacy systems, making critical decisions on less than 10% of available data. We built Orbital to change that. It&rsquo;s a foundation model built specifically for energy that lets companies use AI at scale, harnessing all of their operational 
data and optimising in real time for any metric. Decisions get faster, operations get safer, and carbon intensity falls. 
We&rsquo;ve raised over $32 million, including one of the largest seed rounds for an 
AI company in the UK. We&rsquo;re just getting started
As a Senior Full Stack Engineer on the Core AI team, you will build the platform that makes Orbital a scalable product. You will own the internal application layers, developer facing APIs, shared UI components, and integration frameworks that power every Orbital deployment.
This is a product engineering role focused on building reusable systems. You will collaborate with AI research, Infra, and software teams to translate complex industrial workflows into reliable system components and intuitive user interfaces.
Your work will define how users interact with Orbital across control rooms, engineering teams, and cloud-based environments.
What Success Looks Like<ul><li>Orbital ships with high-quality dashboards and interfaces that users rely on daily</li><li>Core APIs and services provide stable, well-documented contracts for AI, data, and automation features</li><li>Frontend and backend codebases are modular, well-structured, and easy to extend</li><li>Releases are frequent, reliable, and backed by strong CI/CD pipelines</li><li>Features scale from one deployment to many without site-specific rework or bespoke</li></ul>
