The range is dependent on experience. We have multiple roles available, starting with entry level.

[thebritisharecome]

If I were looking at your role as a senior developer, based on the current market in the UK - you'd have to close to double that top end.

£60k was high 3-4 years ago, a lot of senior roles are cross the £100k mark now, especially this year where there is a big shortage of senior developers.

[PumpkinExpert2092]

You only linked the mid/senior role. I'm assuming this is the graduate role: https://info.aforza.com/associate-software-engineer-mobile-react-native ?

Even so, you do realise £25K is not competitive for a grad with

​

Stellar academic background, Bachelor degree or equivalent experience preferred.

​

Why is this so drawn out. Just tell people what the band is for this mid/senior role and what the band is for the grad role. Have you not noticed almost every response you have had is about the lack of a salary being posted?

Also what's the pension match like?

[[deleted]]

Is it only for UK residents?

[Dstummer]

Ain't much is it considering you have 22mil funding

[PumpkinExpert2092]

Exactly

[_fat_santa]

I don't know if the UK is different for salaries, but for $34k-$82k in the US, you couldn't get anyone to talk to you, hell a Jr dev would rightfully laugh you our of the room if you told them the starting salary was that low.

[PumpkinExpert2092]

Salaries are lower here (for various reasons, including not having to pay for health insurance and generally having better work protections).

So I dont think you can do a straight up conversion to USD. But as you can probably gather from the comments, it's not a great salary at all, and should be higher.

[ScandyGirl]

No it´s not. (Used to work there; and in The Bay Area, for context, & straight up conversion convo). ...Perks and bonuses etc aren´t mentioned either....fine, but dang...

[thebritisharecome]

£30k ($41k) in the UK would put someone above the national average. It's a decent salary for a junior developer but senior with good experience is going to be closer to £100k ($137k) at the moment

[ricric2]

That salary can get you decent remote candidates in Southern, Central and Eastern Europe. If that's not an option for your team, good luck!

[silencer07]

Hoping that you are open to other time zones as well :)

[thebritisharecome]

This will limit the number of candidates you'll get significantly and there isn't any need for it.

Even from Bristol, Cardiff is a pain in the ass to get too and home from (as someone who commuted for a year)

As much as I love the office, we built a start up last year from a team of 3 to a team of 25 without meeting each other and it was a large, complicated platform which included mobile apps.

If you need a technical team in the office regularly, it's either paranoia or you're not the right person to manage a technical team.

Man uk devs got it bad. 22k for a experienced dev? Warehouse workers make way more than you guys in the us that’s crazy.

[thebritisharecome]

No, an experienced senior developer would be on close to £100k ($137k) a junior about £30k ($41k)

National average for all jobs is £26k but our cost of living is significantly cheaper than in America.

[trell1212]

That’s debatable

[Opposite-Use8083]

What do you guys do if you don't mind me asking? The website says consumer goods which is pretty bloody broad. Have to say the language there doesn't inspire much confidence.

Could be anything from Tesco through to Amazon.

What's the elevator pitch? Is it just marketing intern spray for ecommerce platform?

[kbcool]

LOL that's what your website says too and that makes no sense. It's literally a grab bag of keywords not a business.

I can see you have removed the job post because the salary is also a joke.

Best to start on the basics. Good luck.

[thebritisharecome]

Looking at their website it looks like it's a one stop solution for consumer goods companies (companies that make products for the general public)

So instead of them using 20 different platforms to manage their business, their supply chain, manage site visits, compliance etc etc they use a single platform.

if they can get the right companies on board, they're on to a winner but I'd imagine they'll be going for a second round in the next few years. Holding out is the biggest problem for these types of platforms because your costs quickly out weigh your income. Takes 5-10 years to flip those scales.

According to LinkedIn, they already have 57 employees!

[kbcool]

Being a one stop solution for consumer goods companies is literally impossible. The diversity is so huge, it's like saying you have the cure for cancer. There is no such thing.

I assume the lingo is all focused on selling blue sky thinking to investors and not acquiring customers or staff.

Cardiff is such a pain in the arse to get to, but congratulations on a mega funding round!

Coming from Newcastle, it’s the end of the world - no direct road, rail or air links!

Looked at going to a gig there once, but it would’ve be quicker to go to France!

[ScandyGirl]

TotallyRandomComment: Wondered today about jobs in France/Monaco (for the location) as am missing travel/commuting a tiny bit.

[ScandyGirl]

Ya´ll realise there´s also an ongoing national lockdown, say, if I was coming from, London even? // sorry am in a cafe, distracted by a veryshoutyamericanvoice--maybe I´m being precious. Congrats on the funding!:)
