About the team that drives their platform
They're a PropTech scale-up who have created a revolutionary, cloud-based software platform to bring together agents, landlords and tenants online and process all the paperwork electronically.
Their small, self-organising squads build the platforms and tools to help them achieve their mission. They're disrupting an industry, so there's plenty of thorny, real-world problems to solve on behalf of the agents, landlords and tenants that use their system.
If you want to develop new skills, there'll be plenty of opportunities: many of their current team joined as back-end or front-end developers, and are now working across the full stack.
They are keen advocates of agile delivery; they work closely with their stakeholders and use Kanban to iterate quickly on customer feedback. You'll be learning every day, from the team around you and senior members of the team who you'll have daily exposure to.
Visit their careers in tech to find out more about the team and the way they work!
The Tech they use
Their platform is built with multiple PHP 8 applications running on Symfony (5.4/7.*), all deployed within Docker containers on a Kubernetes cluster hosted on AWS. Data is persisted in a MYSQL (AWS Aurora) database. Additionally, they leverage AWS Lambda and Amazon API Gateway for running supplementary services.
Their UI is a mixture of jQuery and React (using Typescript) and they're actively pushing to have everything in React.
They use Github for version control and Github Actions for building, testing and deploying code to the staging and production environments.
ABOUT THE ROLE
Their mission is to provide the best renting experience in the world and you'll play a key part in helping them achieve this by making sure their platform is best in class.
No two days are ever the same at Goodlord so what you’ll be up to will vary. The pace they move at also means priorities will change and you’ll need to be comfortable with this (we’ll support you!). But these are the things that will be core to your role and will keep you busy.
Work with Product Managers, business stakeholders and other Engineers to understand end user problems and implement appropriate solutions
Address issues raised within the application that prevent users from achieving their goals
Identify bottlenecks in the development process and suggest/implement improvements
Continuously improve the code base to make it easier to understand and more fun to work with
Perform self defined tasks geared towards your personal and professional development
ABOUT YOU
You should apply if you have:
Significant commercial experience in building complex web applications using Symfony or Laravel
Ability to write good, clean and well-tested code
Proficient working with relational databases such as MySql and PostgreSql
Experience working in an agile team with a delivery focus and a keen eye on what the customer needs
Willingness to learn new technologies and engineering practices
Any experience with the following would be a bonus: Typescript, React, Behat, Docker, Kubernetes, Terraform and AWS Lambda.
And Goodlord is for you if:
You want to work in an environment where your input is valued and you can make a real impact
You’re a pragmatic craftsperson who strives to find the right balance between quality and delivery
You have a passion for solving end user problems, big or small
You understand the challenges and rewards that come with working in a startup environment and look forward to taking them on
ABOUT THEM
They started Goodlord because they wanted to make renting simple and transparent for everyone involved: the agent, landlord and tenant. They knew Generation Rent would lead to more tenants, with higher digital expectations and they were confident they could provide a solution.
And they did. Like all startups it’s been a bit of a roller coaster journey, but they're now stronger than ever, with around 3000 letting agents using the platform, exciting & varied product lines and 350 Goodlordians across the group supporting the mission!
Their purpose - building the best rental experience in the world - is clear to everyone, and so too is the fact that people are central to achieving that mission; they have worked hard to make Goodlord great so they're proud to have been ranked 10th in the UK's Best Workplaces™ 2022 - Large category.

Their values guide their decisions, the way they work, their culture and the people they ask to join the team. They work hard, have fun and support each other. They're not afraid to make mistakes (we’d never learn if they didn’t) and they're always looking to challenge Their style is collaboration based on honesty, friendship and respect.
It’s an exciting time here at Goodlord. If you’re inspired by what they're doing, are up for a challenge and share their values, they'd love to hear from you.
