Who we are

Join Doc2, a SaaS startup that’s revolutionising contracts. We’re not just another software company; we’re building an intuitive and secure platform that businesses love. Backed by industry leaders and with a product already in use, we’re at a pivotal growth stage, and we need experienced engineers who are ready to make a significant impact.

Here, your work directly shapes the future. We’re a tight-knit team with a flat structure, which means your ideas are not only heard, they’re critical to our success. If you’re a seasoned developer who thrives on ownership, collaboration, and seeing your work go from idea to implementation, you’ll find a home with us.

The role

We’re looking for a skilled Full-Stack Developer to join our team. You’ll be a key player in the entire software development lifecycle, from designing new features to improving performance and ensuring our platform is robust and scalable.

You’ll also work with our front-end technologies, including HTML, CSS, and JavaScript, to deliver a seamless user experience. This is a hands-on role with lots of variety and plenty of room to take ownership and lead.

• Collaborate with the CTO on planning and design decisions
• Write clean, secure code and ensure quality through best practices and code reviews
• Troubleshoot and resolve issues in development and production environments
• Develop and maintain integrations with third-party platforms
• Manage your work through Bitbucket and our Kanban system
