Back End Developer

Location: London / hybrid, with two - three days per week in office

Permanent

Futureheads is partnered with a distinctive corporate intelligence consultancy undergoing a full internal technology transformation.

They are rebuilding legacy internal systems from the ground up, replacing an older NetSuite-era setup with modern applications that support consultant workflows, data collection and reporting.

The role

• Build and deliver back-end services for internal corporate intelligence platforms.
• Work with large, varied data sets and turn them into usable information for internal teams.
• Develop in TypeScript, Node.js and AWS.
• Support AI-enabled workflows, including integrations with AWS Bedrock, Claude and Cursor.
• Work closely with the CTO, a UK-based staff engineer and a distributed engineering team.

What they’re looking for

• Strong back-end development experience, ideally with TypeScript and Node.js.
• Experience building web applications and processing substantial data sets.
• Comfort working with AWS; exposure to Bedrock or AI-enabled workflows is useful but not essential.
• A pragmatic engineer who can contribute in a small, evolving team.
• Comfortable building internal tools rather than high-scale public-facing products.

Likely to suit someone who

• Enjoys hands-on engineering in a transformation environment.
• Is interested in the intersection of data, workflows and AI tooling.
• Wants to work on complex internal software with real operational impact.
• Is comfortable in a more professional, office-based environment.
