TechProf is a place for senior engineers, designers, and consultants who want to do the work — and have it count. Small teams, real ownership, calm working norms, and clients you'd actually mention at dinner.
We're not chasing valuation. We're not asking you to work weekends. We're not pretending to be a family. We're just trying to be the best place to do this kind of work in the UK.
Sub-50 people across engineering, design, AI/ML, and operations. The seniority bar is high — most engineers have 8+ years of experience. Communication is async-default but we travel together at least twice a year.
We have one written rule: be kind, be excellent, be honest. Almost everything else flows from that.
We don't have advertised roles open right now — but we hire when we meet the right person, not just when the slot opens. If your background lines up with our work, we'd genuinely like to hear from you.
Send a short note about what you're working on, your CV or portfolio, and the kind of work you'd find meaningful. We review every introduction personally and reply — even when there's nothing live. We keep promising candidates in mind for the moment a role opens up, which is often well before it goes public.
We particularly welcome applications from underrepresented backgrounds in tech.
Senior software, cloud, AI/ML, SRE, product design, brand design, engagement leadership. We don't run graduate or junior tracks at the moment.
Two-stage process. First a 45-minute conversation with someone senior, then a paid take-home or pairing session. No whiteboarding under fluorescent lights. Usually start to offer in 14 days.
Remote-first across the UK with an optional office in Surrey. We meet in person at least twice a year for proper team time. Travel and accommodation covered.
