About the Role

We are looking for a capable, self-driven Full-Stack Developer who can own both the front-end and back-end of web applications. You will work across the complete stack — building Angular-powered interfaces, developing scalable Node.js services, designing and managing MySQL databases, and creating robust APIs that tie it all together.

Strong technical ability is essential, but so is communication. You will collaborate with clients and cross-functional team members, which means you need to express technical concepts clearly, surface blockers proactively, and deliver without hand-holding. Our evaluation process is designed to test both.

Key Responsibilities

Front-End Development

• Design and develop dynamic, responsive, and performant Angular applications
• Build reusable components, services, and modules following Angular best practices
• Implement clean, accessible UI/UX across web and device types using HTML5, CSS3, and SCSS
• Integrate front-end applications with back-end APIs and real-time data sources

Back-End Development & API

• Develop scalable, secure, and maintainable server-side applications using Node.js
• Design, build, and maintain RESTful APIs — including versioning, authentication, error handling, and documentation
• Integrate third-party APIs and external services into the application layer
• Implement back-end business logic, middleware, and service layers

Database – MySQL

• Design and manage MySQL database schemas, tables, relationships, and indexing strategies
• Write optimised SQL queries, stored procedures, and handle migrations
• Perform back-end data validation and ensure data integrity across the application
• Diagnose and resolve database performance bottlenecks

Full-Stack Ownership

• Work across the full development lifecycle — from requirement analysis and architecture through to deployment and ongoing support
• Conduct real-time testing during development to validate quality at every stage before handoff
• Participate in code reviews and contribute to improving codebase standards
• Debug and resolve issues independently across the full stack with minimal escalation

Required Technical Skills

Front-End

• Strong expertise in Angular (v12+ preferred) — components, services, reactive forms, routing, state management, and Angular CLI
• Proficiency in TypeScript and modern JavaScript (ES6+)
• Solid command of HTML5, CSS3, SCSS, Bootstrap — responsive and cross-browser development
• Experience with RxJS for reactive and asynchronous programming patterns
• Familiarity with AJAX and JSON-based client-server communication

Back-End & API

• Hands-on experience with Node.js — Express.js or equivalent framework
• RESTful API design and implementation — authentication (JWT / OAuth), input validation, rate limiting, error handling
• Experience integrating third-party APIs and webhooks
• Understanding of asynchronous programming, event loops, and performance optimisation in Node.js

Database

• Strong proficiency in MySQL — schema design, query optimisation, indexing, and stored procedures
• Experience with an ORM such as Sequelize or equivalent
• Ability to handle data migrations and version-controlled database changes

Engineering Practices

• Version control via Git — branching, pull requests, and collaborative workflows
• Understanding of MVC / layered architecture patterns
• Experience with Agile / Scrum development methodologies
• Familiarity with deployment pipelines and basic DevOps concepts is a plus

AI-Tool Fluency (Required)

AtDrive operates at the cutting edge of modern software delivery. All team members are expected to actively leverage AI-powered tools as a core part of their daily workflow.

• Proficiency with AI coding assistants such as Claude (Anthropic), GitHub Copilot, OpenAI Codex, or equivalent platforms
• Ability to use AI tools to accelerate full-stack development, generate boilerplate, write tests, and debug across Angular, Node.js, and MySQL
• Comfortable prompting, evaluating, and critically iterating on AI-generated code
• Awareness of the limitations and responsible use of AI in a professional software environment
• Willingness to continuously upskill as AI tooling evolves

Communication Requirements

Strong communication is non-negotiable. You will interact directly with clients and cross-functional team members. We expect:

• Clear, professional written and spoken English
• Ability to explain technical concepts and trade-offs to non-technical stakeholders
• Proactive communication — surface blockers, clarify ambiguities, and provide status updates without being prompted
• Comfortable participating in client calls and written correspondence independently

Evaluation Process

Our evaluation process is rigorous and multi-stage, assessing real-world full-stack capability — not just the ability to recite answers.

• Stage 1 — Technical Assessment: Timed coding challenge covering Angular, Node.js, MySQL, and API design
• Stage 2 — Communication Round: Assessed on clarity, articulation, and ability to discuss technical decisions
• Stage 3 — Live Technical Interview: Architecture discussion, code walkthrough, and full-stack problem-solving under observation
• Stage 4 — AI Tool Proficiency: Practical demonstration of AI-assisted development across the stack

Candidates who perform well technically but demonstrate weak communication or low AI-tool familiarity will not be progressed.

Qualifications

• Bachelor's degree in Computer Science, Information Technology, or a related engineering field
• 2–5 years of professional full-stack development experience — Angular, Node.js, and MySQL are all required, not optional
• Portfolio of shipped full-stack projects strongly preferred — links to repositories or live applications welcome

Why AtDrive?

• Work with a globally recognised technology company serving clients from SMEs to Fortune 2000 companies
• Build across the complete stack on real, commercially delivered projects
• Collaborate with diverse, passionate teams driven by a culture of excellence and continuous improvement
• Competitive compensation and genuine career advancement opportunities
• Be part of a company whose tagline isn't just words — Inspired by Perfection

Why Deliveroo?

When you first think about Deliveroo, you probably think of getting great food to your house in less than half an hour. Awesome right? But behind the scenes is the real story. This story is one of high growth, huge challenges and an enormous opportunity ahead of us. It began with our founder Will, arriving in London in 2004 and finding it almost impossible to order great food, despite the wealth of incredible restaurants in the city. In 2013 Deliveroo was launched. Fast forward to 2020 and we operate in 12 markets with over 60,000 riders who deliver orders from 60,000 restaurants in over 500 cities worldwide.

We want to be the definitive food company - the app you go to any time you have a hunger pang. We are transforming the way people think about food. We are providing people with limitless access to different cuisines and restaurants, turning cooking from a chore to a choice, and giving people the freedom to eat what they want, when they want, where they want it.

We work with riders, restaurants and consumers. We operate one of the most complex three sided marketplaces in the world and we do this in real time. Millions of customers and thousands of restaurants and riders rely on us to match them within milliseconds. The algorithms behind that marketplace are the secret sauce that allows us to deliver our orders in around 30 minutes.

And we're just getting started.

The scale of the opportunity ahead of us is immense. The global food market is valued at £7.7 trillion but only 1% of it is currently online. Contrast that with the digital disruption of countless other industries - from banking and travel to retail and communications - it's clear that our journey in the food sector has only just begun.

We are already a multi-billion pound company that has grown rapidly. Deliveroo came top in the FT's' list of Europe's fastest growing 1000 companies in 2018, and we were the first company ever to win Deloitte's 'UK Top 50' two years in a row. Yet most of the extraordinary value this company will generate lies ahead of us.

The Role

• Work as part of a full stack product team to develop solutions to ensure optimal experiences for our customers, riders, and restaurants

• Utilise a variety of backend technologies to build scalable products

• You'll take part in decisions related to how we undertake new projects

• You'll gather requirements and scope out projects with the rest of the team

Our skills include:

We want to emphasise that we don’t expect you to meet all of the below but would love you to have experience in some of these areas.

• Pride in readable, well-designed, well-tested software

• 5 to 10 years professional experience writing web-based applications in any language, and a willingness to quickly get up to speed on our stack (Ruby/Rails, Go, Python, Scala, or Rust)

• Experience with TDD environments (RSpec, Minitest, Capybara, Selenium)

• Experience with relational databases (PostGreSQL, MySQL) and key-value stores (Memcache, Redis)

• Experience with front-end web technology, bonus points for React

• Experience with web architecture at scale (20krpm and above)

• Experience with PostGIS, or any geography-heavy applications

• Experience with "NoSQL" data backends (Redis, MongoDB, ElasticSearch)

• Experience solving logistical problems with software

Life at Deliveroo

We are a growing team, with very large impact, seeking to answer some of the most interesting questions out there. We move fast, we’re always looking for new ideas and we’re very transparent about the decisions we make and why we make them.

There are so many questions we need to answer and plenty more we haven’t even encountered. How do data and technology help restaurants to grow as consumer habits change? How can we predict what someone wants to order for dinner long before the idea has even crossed their mind? At Deliveroo these are just some of the tough problems we are solving - and there is no challenge that cannot be yours. No solution is owned by a particular team, which means the scope for growth and personal impact is enormous.

Diversity

We believe a great workplace is one that represents the world we live in and how beautifully diverse it can be. That means we have no judgement when it comes to any one of the things that make you who you are - your gender, race, sexuality, religion or a secret aversion to coriander. All you need is a passion for (most) food and a desire to be part of one of the fastest growing start-ups around. 

What you need to have:
