General

I’m building a secure digital communications/payments platform, with UK Government as the initial user group. Problem validation, GTM plan, and early mock-ups are complete. Pre-seed round is now in progress, and I’m looking for a Founding Engineer who would join once funding closes.

What I’m looking for:

* Senior full-stack engineer (TypeScript / React / AWS / .NET preferred, but flexible) * UK-based with Right to Work & SC-clearable * Strong interest in govtech, fintech, security, identity, or large-scale comms systems * Familiarity with government environments or ISO27001 is a bonus * Prior public-sector experience would be ideal

Role:

* Salary: £35k–£55k (pre-seed) * Equity: meaningful founding allocation * Join as the technical lead / founding engineer after funding completes

If this sounds like a good fit, DM me or email: radial-laurel-game@duck.com (masked for privacy)

Please attach a CV or portfolio. I’ll reach out if the profile is a good match.
