We're looking for a Senior full-stack developer to help build the future of GetAgent. We're transitioning to Next JS and have some exciting new products in the roadmap too.

GetAgent | Full stack web (javascript) | London, UK | Onsite | Fulltime | https://www.getagent.co.uk

GetAgent uses property sales data to objectively rank estate agents, allowing homesellers to make an informed decision. We're growing 5x annually, driven by a substantial TV advertising campaign.

This is an exciting job for anyone who wants to help develop a product that aims to simplify homeselling - a hugely stressful process. We have a small (but growing!) technical team so you would have substantial control (and responsibility) very quickly.

We use the area average growth price. But the idea is we are looking at properties that sold very recently, so the rise in price is not such an issue.

This link was posted here a few days ago. Nice looking site and vid.
