Description
About Resi Labs
Resi Labs is the technology and innovation arm of Resi, the UK's largest residential architecture practice. We're building products that help millions of homeowners make better renovation decisions - from understanding planning feasibility and build costs to visualising what's possible with their property.
We sit on a unique dataset built over a decade: 2 million planning applications, 40,000 builder quotes, and thousands of detailed floor plans and 3D models linking design, planning, and cost data in ways no one else can. Our products are already embedded on platforms like Rightmove and Zoopla, reaching millions of homeowners per year.
About The Role
We're looking for a strong Product Engineer (full-stack) to join our product engineering team. You'll be someone who thinks of yourself as an engineer first, with deep hands-on experience in Ruby on Rails and a genuine passion for building great frontend experiences. You'll take pride in the quality of what users see and interact with, while being equally capable of working across the full stack to deliver features end-to-end.
As a small, autonomous team, there's a real opportunity to lead here. To shape technical direction, own meaningful pieces of the product, and have your voice heard.
At the core of what we build is a large dataset and data processing pipeline covering UK property data. You'll work closely with this data, helping to consume, refine, and unlock its value based on evolving product requirements - so an interest in working with complex, real-world datasets will serve you well.
We're also fortunate to be working on a relatively greenfield codebase with limited technical debt, meaning you'll spend your time building thoughtfully rather than fighting legacy decisions. And we're genuine believers in AI-powered workflows, from how we write code to how the business operates day-to-day, so comfort with and curiosity about AI tooling is a must.
