Recognised for the 2nd year running as a world-class business to work for by Best Companies in 2022, Street Group is one of the fastest-growing PropTech companies in the UK. Our mission is to radically improve the property industry for everyone.

People moving home regularly cite a lack of transparency and a painfully slow process, and that’s often due to the technology in Estate Agent’s hands.

We've been working hard for the past seven years to change that.

To help us on our mission, we’re now looking for a Technical Lead to join our dynamic and ambitious engineering team for Spectre; our direct marketing tool used by estate and lettings agents.

Spectre Development team

Over the last seven years, our Spectre development team have built a product that delivers a whopping 3000+% ROI for our customers and has become a market leader. We now want to double down on this success, building new features and ensuring the architecture of the product is best-in-class to help us scale further.

Behind the very best SaaS companies are teams of talented, highly driven people, and that’s exactly the kind of team you can expect to join at Street Group. Our Spectre development team works closely with data scientists, UX specialists, marketing professionals, ex-estate agents and more, to ensure the customer is always at the forefront of our business and consistently evolve our products based on their feedback.

Here’s what you can expect to be working on as a Technical Lead at Street Group:

• Supporting, leading and coaching a small but highly talented cross-functional team 

• Being hands-on with building a best in class piece of software 

• Being a driving force behind best programming practices and taking your team on that journey with you 

• Collaborating closely with our current Spectre development team, our in-house Data team, our customers, and commercial colleagues in the business in order to build the best product we can 

What you bring to the table: 

• You’re an experienced Senior or Lead Developer who has strong expertise in PHP and JS, and some prior experience of working with Laravel and AWS (and you’re keen to remain hands on)

• You’re a passionate advocate for best practices including Agile, TDD and OOP 

• You have previously mentored, coached or led other developers, or have a strong interest in doing so 

• You have strong empathy, communication and collaboration skills 

• You care about empowering your team and working together to find the best solutions
