Day rate: £550–£600/day (Outside IR35)
Remote Working (UK)
Contract: 6 months (likely extension)
The Role
You will join a new innovation function that operates as the technical strikeforce for exploring emerging technologies, validating new product concepts and building rapid prototypes that influence long-term product direction.
In this hands-on role, you will experiment, iterate quickly, and design proofs-of-concept that demonstrate what’s possible with modern engineering and AI. You will work autonomously, own initiatives end-to-end, and thrive in problem spaces that aren’t fully defined yet.
What They’re Looking For (Non-Negotiables):
TypeScript (strong commercial experience)
React or similar modern frontend framework
Backend engineering skills with Node.js / TypeScript
Strong SQL skills \& RDBMS experience (SQL Server preferred)
ORM experience (Prisma, Sequelize, TypeORM, or similar)
Full-stack ability across frontend, backend, and data workflows
What You’ll Work With:
TypeScript backend services and internal tools
React frontends powering prototype and product experiences
SQL Server for structured datasets and insights-rich workflows
Azure-native services across compute, storage, and data pipelines
Rapid prototyping frameworks and experimental tooling
AI-driven product concepts (LLMs, automation, data intelligence)
Working closely with engineering squads to transition validated prototypes into production
Bonus Experience:
Python and FastAPI exposure
Experience with cloud-based data architecture in Azure
Dashboarding or data-heavy UI experience
Background in AI-infused product development
Experience working with complex insights-driven datasets
Why Join / Example Projects
You’ll be part of a high-visibility innovation team tasked with increasing agility, accelerating experimentation, and identifying new strategic capabilities across the organisation.
Expect to work on:
A new data-rich public-facing digital experience
An AI-powered initiative that streamlines complex disclosure and reporting workflows
Early-stage product shaping and technical exploration that influences the long-term roadmap
Prototypes built with TypeScript, React and Azure services that evolve into production capabilities
This role is ideal for engineers who enjoy solving undefined problems, proposing bold technical approaches, and demonstrating possibilities through working software.
