We have offices in the centre of Edinburgh, Leeds, Manchester, and London as well as remote employees located throughout the country.\n\nWe are a team of creators - whether that's code, project plans, go to market strategies, culture initiatives, marketing campaigns, large language models or people policies. And together, with our clients, we create the future. This has seen us collaborate and partner across a multitude of industries and sectors, with the likes of PayPal, adidas, Natwest, FanDuel and Money Saving Expert, to name just a few.\n\nOur reputation as a partner determined to deliver high-quality, robust and thoughtful products has enabled us to scale to over 500 people in the last couple of years, and it is our amazing people - along with the safe, supportive and friendly culture we have built - that makes CreateFuture a great place to work. Don't just take our word for it though, we have been recognised by Best Workplaces UK multiple years in a row - across a number of categories - and our employee exit rate is astonishingly low.\n\nJoin us on our journey… Let's create something awesome, together, today.\n\nAbout the role and team:\n\nYou will form part of a cross-functional agile team, working closely with 3-5 other engineers, led by a Tech Lead, and working closely with QA, Product and Design to deliver high-quality work for clients across a number of industries.\n\nWe strive to create the best product possible with everyone's effort, and you'll be an integral part of that mission. Your role in the team is highly valued, and you'll be a key player in ensuring the success of our projects.\n\nWe define our Lead role as someone who is able to confidently champion technical improvements, sets the bar high for best engineering practices and takes responsibility for the overall success of the project for the client and CreateFuture.\n\nWhat you'll be doing:\n• Full-Stack Development: Design, develop, and test both frontend and backend components using a combination of JavaScript, TypeScript, React, and Java.\n• Backend Development: Building robust and efficient backend systems using Java, RESTful APIs, and database technologies.\n• Frontend Development: You'll also bring front-end development experience with excellent knowledge of JavaScript and modern Single Page App frameworks (React, Vue.js, Angular, Svelte etc.)\n• Technical Leadership: Mentor junior engineers, share knowledge and promote software engineering best practices at all times.

We are very flexible and trust you to manage your own schedule to balance face-to-face time with clients, colleagues and working from home.\n\nWe create and reinforce a culture that rewards employees' impact, not just activity. We trust our employees to work autonomously and promote ownership across all levels.\n\nNext steps:\n\nOur Talent team aims to respond to all applications within a reasonable timeframe, regardless of whether or not we progress your application.\n\nOur interview process:\n• 30-minute call with one of our talent acquisition team.\n• 1-hour technical assessment.\n• Take home test OR pair programming session (30/60 minute) + values interview.\n\nYou can choose a short take-home task or a live pairing exercise for the final interview, whichever suits you best.

Our office hubs are located in Edinburgh, Leeds, Manchester, London and Bulgaria, with occasional travel to client sites or CreateFuture offices when needed.\n\nWe trust you to manage your time balancing collaboration with client time and focused work. What matters is the impact you have, not how busy you look.\n\nOur hiring process\n\nWe try to keep our hiring process clear, fair and respectful of your time. We aim to get back to everyone who applies and we will be upfront about where you are in the process.\n\nIt usually looks like this:\n• Call with our Talent Acquisition Team\n• Role specific capability interview\n\nDepending on the role, we might also ask you to do a short presentation, a practical or technical task or have a values focused conversation. We will explain what is involved before anything happens.\n\nInclusion at CreateFuture\n\nWe believe diverse teams build better workplaces and better products. We want CreateFuture to be a place where people feel able to be themselves and do their best work.\n\nIf you need any adjustments or support during the application process, just.
