Full job description

Got Drive? Join AnyVan as we make moving anything, anywhere miles better and build a career that moves just as fast.

Back in 2009, our CEO Angus saw half-empty vans everywhere and knew there had to be a better way! That's how AnyVan began. He set out to create the world's most efficient logistics technology and help halve the number of wasted miles by filling those empty vans.

Since then we've become the nation's favourite way to move, with over 150k five-star reviews and 5 million customers in the UK and Europe. Our team of 400 AnyVanners across London, Cape Town and Bogota is proving that moving doesn't have to cost the earth by helping save 8,520 tonnes of Carbon each year.

Build systems that move the real world, with AI at the core

At AnyVan, we're building one of the most sophisticated logistics optimisation platforms in Europe. We connect customer demand with real-time driver availability, using intelligent matching, dynamic pricing, and AI to deliver a world-class service at market-beating prices.

By routing jobs to vans already on the road, we reduce wasted miles, cut emissions, and ensure drivers earn fairly. It's logistics, pricing, and marketplace dynamics, driven by software and increasingly by machine intelligence.

We're looking for a senior engineer to work with our Allocations team. This is more focused on data and back end engineering problems relating to how our transport partners can access and get booked and allocated against the right jobs. This role will focus on the the data, platforms and tools that enables that to happen.

And we're moving fast.

We're embedding AI and machine learning across our core platform, not as experiments, but as production systems that drive real business outcomes:

Real-time, intelligent pricing that models true job-level costs and responds dynamically to supply, demand, and market conditions
Predictive demand and routing models that forecast driver availability and optimise job allocation before a customer even books
LLM-powered tooling across our internal and customer-facing products, from intelligent quoting to driver workflow automation
A two-sided marketplace where drivers can buy and sell jobs to maximise utilisation — powered by smart matching algorithms

This is genuinely leading-edge work: production AI systems, at scale, on problems that matter.

How our engineering teams deliver

We're product-led and agile. Most teams run Scrum with two-week sprints, but we care far more about outcomes than rituals. Engineers are trusted to challenge assumptions, adapt processes, and ship things that matter.

Senior engineers here are not heads-down implementers. You'll:

Work closely with product, data, and commercial stakeholders
Influence technical direction and architectural decisions
Balance speed with long-term sustainability
Regularly ship meaningful improvements to production

Our technology

We're pragmatic and cloud-first, running on AWS, with the flexibility to choose the right tool for the job:

Exploring: Go, Rust, React, Node.js
Core stack: Python, Vue.js & Nuxt, TypeScript
Legacy (retiring where we can): Java, PHP, Angular

You don't need experience in everything, we value strong fundamentals and good engineering judgement over keyword matching.

What you'll be doing

Designing, building, and operating production-grade systems that scale
Tackling complex technical challenges across backend, infrastructure, data flows, and AI/ML pipelines
Writing clean, pragmatic, well-tested code with long-term maintainability in mind
Collaborating with technical and non-technical stakeholders to shape solutions
Championing testing, observability, and quality improvements
Mentoring engineers and raising the technical bar across the team

You'll thrive here if you have

Experience in a scale-up or fast-growing product environment
Strong backend engineering skills (Go, Java, Python, or similar)
A solid understanding of distributed systems, scalability, and performance
Experience with CI/CD, modern deployment practices, and cloud infrastructure
Comfort working with ambiguity and evolving requirements
A bias toward action — shipping value quickly, then iterating
A collaborative mindset and the ability to influence beyond your code
Bonus: exposure to AI/ML systems, marketplaces, logistics, pricing, or e-commerce

Location and eligibility

UK-based, able to commute to Hammersmith. Happy to be onsite at least 3 days per week.
Please note we are unable to offer visa sponsorship for this role at this time.

What we offer

Highly competitive salary
25 days holiday + bank holidays, Christmas Eve off, long-service perks up to 30 days
On-site gym, Vitality membership, enhanced sick pay
Pension – 5% employee / 3% employer
Enhanced maternity pay
2 minutes from the tube, EV schemes, cycle-to-work, showers & towels
Barista coffee, free breakfast, local discounts
Weekly drinks, socials, and unforgettable incentive trips
High ownership, real impact, and the chance to help shape a scaling platform

Our company values are:

Have fun, get it done
Progress over perfection
One team thinking big
