Full job description

We are looking for a Web Development Engineer I to support the web platforms and services that power the products our specialist game development team builds, including educational games and experiences.
This is an entry-level role with strong mentoring and clear growth opportunities. You will contribute primarily to back-end services—building and improving APIs, data flows, and operational tooling—with some exposure to front-end work as needed. You will deliver well-scoped features and fixes, learn our engineering standards, and collaborate closely with designers, artists, and engineers to ship reliable, secure experiences.

In This Role You Will:
Back-End Development

Build, integrate, and maintain server-side applications, RESTful APIs, and microservices that support our products
Work with databases to store and manage learner data, game state, progress tracking, and analytics
Develop integrations with third-party education platforms and services
Write clean, well-tested code, with appropriate unit and integration tests
Support server configuration, deployment pipelines, and monitoring
Maintain and improve existing back-end systems by fixing bugs and optimising performance

Front-End Development

Contribute to front-end tasks as needed, such as building internal tools, dashboards, or admin interfaces
Update and fix web portals and landing pages
Collaborate with the UI/UX designer and front-end specialists to implement browser-based features
Support integrating game builds into web pages, including loading screens and session management

Collaboration & Growth

Participate in code reviews, stand-ups, and team planning sessions
Learn from senior engineers and contribute ideas to improve our technical practices
Document your work clearly so others can build on it
Stay curious about new technologies and approaches relevant to web development and EdTech

Core Competencies for Success:

Action Oriented: Takes on assigned tasks promptly; breaks work into clear steps; follows through on commitments and escalates risks early.
Collaborates: Works effectively with teammates across disciplines; shares progress, asks for input, and supports team decisions to deliver outcomes.
Tech Savvy: Learns new tools and frameworks quickly; applies fundamentals (version control, testing, debugging) to produce maintainable code.
Problem Solving: Uses data and logic to diagnose issues; proposes options; tests hypotheses; and documents fixes to prevent recurrence.
Ensures Accountability: Takes ownership of code quality and reliability; writes tests where appropriate; communicates status; and meets agreed timelines.

Credentials and Experience:

Foundation in back-end web development using at least one server-side language (e.g. Python, Node.js, C#, Java, or similar)
Basic understanding of databases, both relational (e.g. PostgreSQL, MySQL) and/or NoSQL (e.g. MongoDB)
Familiarity with RESTful API design and development
Some exposure to front-end technologies (HTML, CSS, JavaScript) and willingness to work across the stack
Degree, bootcamp qualification, or equivalent practical experience in computer science, software engineering, or a related field
Experience using AI-assisted development tools such as Claude Code, Codex, or similar
Experience with cloud platforms (e.g. AWS, Azure, or GCP)
Familiarity with containerisation tools such as Docker
Legal right to work in the United Kingdom

This role is designed to be hybrid in Manchester, UK.
The hiring range for this position is between £30,500 - £34,300 annually, however, base pay offered may vary depending on job-related knowledge, skills, experience, and location. Additionally, this position is eligible for an Annual Bonus.
