Hybrid working pattern - 2 days per week from London Bridge Office // Remote

Do the best work of your life!

Houseful is home to trusted brands Zoopla, Alto, Hometrack, Calcasa, Mojo and Prime location. Together we’re creating the connections that power better property decisions, by unlocking the combined strength of software, data and insight.

We make moves with head and heart to achieve our big ambitions, and to drive progress in the property market.  There’s never been a better time to join us.

As a Software Engineer in New Homes you have the opportunity to influence and build software used by some of the largest home builders and thousands of buyers of newly built homes to complete one of the most important purchases they’ll make. Our mission is to take the pain out of the new home buying experience so that home buyers can focus on making a house a home.

You’ll be at home if…

• You’re able to strike the balance between building enough to prove a concept or plan and deliver a fully scalable, enterprise solution
• You’re a role model to your teammates and can coach them when to foster our engineering culture, standards and approaches
• You’re professional and collaborate when planning integrations with Third Parties
• You play a key part of inputting into the vision for the product and technology that powers it

You’ll hit the ground running if…

• You’re fullstack including extensive experience with C# .NET & JavaScript or TypeScript
• You have experience with Relational SQL databases
• You have experience working in a high-scale, transaction based product
• You have experience with Continuous Integration and Agile and can apply domain driven application design principles
• You’re working on your engineering craft, and you practise writing maintainable code, reviewing code, and writing tests and documentation

There’s always room to grow and learn with our roles so please don’t be put off if you don’t have all of these skills and experiences. It’s more important that you’re passionate about our mission to improve the home moving and owning experience for everyone.

You’ll thrive here if…

• You’re passionate and opinionated about technology, actively learning and trying out new things, your job is an application of the best tool for the right job because you’ve accumulated great knowledge
• You’re commercially driven, resilient, and able to respond to changes without missing a beat
• You don’t need detailed specifications to do a great job and lead through ambiguity
• You’re a great communicator with excellent interpersonal skills and can lead change
• You’re passionate about building products to delight users, while also paying attention to building products that are stable, scalable, secure, observable, and performant. 
• We look for new teammates that have exhibited some or all of our Houseful behaviours - such as ‘Own It,’ ‘Be the Change’, and ‘Set the Bar Higher.’

You’ll be part of a team that…

• Challenge each other and those around them to deliver outstanding value to customers
• Innovates and introduces new technologies & ways of working that reduces toil, lead time for change and/or cost
• Work closely with third parties to delivery a seamless final solution
• Are socially connected and celebrates their achievements whilst also reflecting on missed opportunities

We want to make Houseful more welcoming, fair and representative every day. We’ll consider everyone who applies for this role in the same way, regardless of your ethnicity, colour, national origin, religion, sexual orientation, gender, gender identity, age, physical disability, neurodiversity status, family or parental status, or how long you’ve spent unemployed. We’re reimagining the property industry for everyone, so we want our team to represent people from all walks of life. We actively welcome your application if your demographics or background are underrepresented in the technology or property sectors.
