Katapult is a recruitment consultancy that helps brands and agencies hire exceptional talent. This role is with our client company.

Company: A Leading Digital Media Company

We’re an integrated digital-first media and marketing company, specialising in organic media, meme marketing, influencer partnerships, and content-led brand solutions. Operating at the intersection of culture, creators, and communities, we help leading consumer and digital-native brands drive awareness, engagement, and cultural relevance across social platforms. Through a vertically integrated ecosystem of proprietary meme networks, creator collectives, and owned media brands, we deliver scalable, content-first distribution models that combine strategy, storytelling, and organic reach to engineer attention at scale.

The Role

You will build the products behind our new age content creation platforms and the tech-led businesses we launch next. This is a builder’s job. We want someone who can take a feature from idea to production across web, mobile and backend, solve hard problems personally, and raise the bar for the engineers around them.

What You Will Do

Year one

• Help scale our 2 live social media platforms: users, engagement, reliability, performance and monetisation.

• Build and ship core features end to end across backend, web and mobile.

• Contribute to launching 1 to 2 new tech-led lines of business from zero.

• Use AI and LLM-powered features in our products and internal workflows: content, recommendations, creator and brand matching, analytics and automation.

Ongoing

• Design and build scalable APIs, services and data pipelines using Python, MongoDB and ClickHouse.

• Build fast, polished web experiences with React, https://jobeax.com/link/Z30sZYC3jcRenVso and TypeScript.

• Build and ship cross-platform mobile apps with React Native and Flutter.

• Own the quality of what you ship: architecture, security, performance, cloud costs and uptime.

• Stay hands-on with debugging, code reviews and design reviews, and mentor junior engineers.

• Use AI tools to move faster and help the team do the same.

• Work closely with product, design, content, creator and sales teams across all business verticals.

• Help build an engineering culture that is fast, curious and AI-native.

What We Are Looking For

Experience

• 5 to 8 years in software development, with a strong record of shipping and maintaining production products.

• Has built and scaled consumer-facing products, ideally in social media, creator platforms, media, content or high-traffic consumer apps.

• Has worked in a fast-growing team and taken ownership of features or systems from start to finish.

Technical depth

• Strong in Python and TypeScript.

• Hands-on with React and https://jobeax.com/link/Z30sZYC3jcRenVso for web.

• Experience building mobile apps with React Native and Flutter.

• Solid working knowledge of MongoDB, including data modelling and performance tuning.

• Experience with ClickHouse or similar analytical databases for high-volume event and analytics data.

• Comfortable with cloud-native architectures, APIs and modern stacks.

• Practical AI experience: has shipped AI/ML or LLM-powered features and uses AI to speed up engineering.

• Experience with scale: high traffic, video and media pipelines, data infrastructure and cost-efficient cloud operations.

How you work

• A problem solver who gets things done and takes ownership.

• Comfortable with ambiguity, speed and shifting priorities in a high-growth company.

• Understands social media and internet culture, and cares about what makes content and communities work.

• Can explain technical trade-offs clearly to product, design and business teams.

• Thrives in a young, ambitious team and brings energy to it.

Why This Role

• You will work on real scale: a large creator network, owned media properties and two live platforms with a growing user base.

• You will build from the ground up, with new businesses to launch alongside the core platforms.

• You will work directly with a senior tech leadership team in a company that moves quickly and rewards ownership.

• You will grow fast, with room to step into lead and architect roles as the engineering team expands.
