Frontend Engineer (remote role based in the UK or Europe)
Uncapped, Poland
Job Description
Frontend Engineer
A fully remote role based in the UK or Europe
Role Overview
At Uncapped, we help ambitious founders realise their dreams. If you want to help grow an exciting company by using modern frontend approaches -- and if you are devoted to building the best testing capabilities from scratch -- this job is for you. This role is ideally suited for an Engineer who is very good at working closely with others, both backend developers and designers. You are a self-igniting developer, motivated to seek opportunities to improve a codebase and the delivery process on the frontend. We like to work with Engineers who contribute to discussions, explore options, and include other views in making decisions. And we focus on engineering valuable business outcomes, rather than on technical perfection.
This is an exciting time at Uncapped: a fast-paced environment with tremendous potential as we create solutions that empower entrepreneurs to focus on changing the world.
About Uncapped
We believe founders shouldn’t have to give away ownership of their company to fund growth. That’s why we’ve provided interest and equity-free investments from 10k to 2 million to founders and companies who are changing the world. We charge a flat fee of 6% on the capital provided and are repaid through a revenue share. There are no pitches, cap tables, or coffees required. Founders can apply online, receive an offer, and start growing their business!
We are a fully remote team, hailing from the likes of Monzo, Revolut, Funding Circle, and Google. We’ve raised $40 million from Europe’s top investors, including Seedcamp, Global Founders Capital, and Mouro Capital (Santander Bank). Our collective focus is on building compelling products and expanding internationally so that more companies have access to the growth capital they need to thrive.
