About GetGround We are disrupting one of the world's largest asset classes, property. With £2Bn+ assets on our platform and 30,000+ users across 70 countries, we're building the future of asset ownership and in doing so, are able to address wealth inequality. Our product simplifies property investing from start to finish, making real estate investment accessible to everyone. The Role As the Product Engineering Director, you will lead and scale a high performing engineering function whilst remaining deeply hands on with code. You'll manage Product Engineers, shape technical strategy, and actively contribute to our AI native products. This is a player coach role where you balance people leadership with meaningful coding contributions - we're looking for someone who leads through example and maintains their technical edge. What you'll love doing: Lead and develop engineering leaders - Manage and mentor a team of Product Engineers, helping them grow their technical and leadership capabilities while driving impact across their teams. Code regularly - Spend meaningful time writing production code, reviewing pull requests, and contributing to architecture. You'll work across our React/TypeScript frontend and Golang backend, using AI tools as your co pilot. Shape technical strategy - Define and evolve our engineering roadmap, architectural decisions, and technical standards in an AI first development culture - informed by your hands on work. Build and scale teams - Partner with our talent team to attract, hire, and onboard exceptional engineering talent. Create an environment where engineers thrive and deliver their best work. Drive delivery and impact - Own outcomes across multiple product streams, ensuring teams ship high quality features fast whilst balancing technical excellence with commercial priorities. Champion engineering excellence - Establish and evolve engineering practices, standards, and culture that enable us to move quickly without compromising quality. Lead by example through your own code contributions. Collaborate cross functionally - Work closely with Product, Design, and other functions to align on priorities, make strategic trade offs, and drive business outcomes. Navigate ambiguity - Operate effectively in a fast moving environment where ownership, experimentation, and adaptability are essential. What we're looking for: Hands on technical leadership - You're a strong full stack engineer (React/TypeScript, Golang or similar) who actively codes and wants to continue doing so. You earn credibility through your technical contributions, not just your title. Engineering management experience - Proven track record managing and developing engineering teams, including other engineering leaders. You've built high performing cultures where engineers grow, collaborate, and deliver impact. Recent coding experience - You've been writing production code within the last 6 12 months and are excited to continue. You can jump into our codebase and make meaningful contributions quickly. Architectural expertise - Experience making significant architectural decisions, building consumer facing products at scale, and balancing technical debt against delivery pressure. Product and commercial acumen - Deep understanding of how engineering enables product and business outcomes. You're excited about building world class tech products that solve real user problems and drive commercial results. People development focus - Passionate about growing engineers and engineering leaders through coaching, mentoring, and clear feedback - while also demonstrating excellence through your own technical work. Change agent - Demonstrated ability to drive meaningful change in engineering organizations - whether improving delivery practices, elevating technical standards, or evolving team culture. AI first mindset - Excited about AI augmented development workflows (GitHub Copilot, ChatGPT, code generation) and building AI native products. Comfortable with rapid experimentation and iteration. Strong communication - Able to articulate complex technical concepts to diverse audiences, facilitate difficult conversations, and build alignment across functions. Values alignment - Embody our operating principles: no BS, pursuit of excellence, feedback obsession, and healthy ego. This role isn't for you if: You want to step away from coding - This role requires regular, meaningful code contributions. If you're looking to be purely managerial, this isn't the right fit. You want fully remote work - We're hybrid with 4 days in office and believe passionately about the advantages of in office collaboration and innovation. You prefer delegating all technical work - We need a leader who stays hands on, understands problems intimately through coding, and leads by example in the codebase. You want a stable, predictable environment - We move fast, priorities shift, and ambiguity is constant. You need to thrive in this context. You're looking for a slow paced corporate environment - We own outcomes, make quick decisions, and live by our values without corporate politics. You see coding as beneath your level - Technical contribution is core to this role, not optional. What we offer: The opportunity to lead engineering at a fast growing FinTech/PropTech company disrupting a massive market while staying hands on with code. Autonomy and ownership to shape our engineering function and culture. A team that values excellence, feedback, and continuous improvement. Competitive compensation and equity. The chance to work on AI native products that are reshaping property investment. What we are building: The first end to end real estate investment offering - making the dream of owning real estate more accessible to everyone globally. Diversity & inclusion at GetGround: We encourage applications from all sections of society and we believe in the criticality of an inclusive culture. We are committed to equal employment opportunity regardless of race, religion or belief, ethnic or national origin, disability, age, citizenship, marital, domestic or civil partnership status, sexual orientation, gender identity or any other basis as protected by law. 42% of our employees identify as female or non specified, 58% as male. 22 nationalities represented across offices in 5 countries. Our work on Design Accessibility. Inclusion is at the heart of our culture - we celebrate and reflect on key D&I and cultural events such as: Black History Month, International Women's Day and Pride.

Today the Museum is more relevant and influential than ever. By attracting people from a range of backgrounds to work for us, we can continue to look at the world with fresh eyes and find new ways of doing things. We employ 1100 staff in a variety of roles, all united by our vision of a future where people and planet thrive. We need everyone to have the passion and drive to help us with our mission to create advocates for our planet and inspire millions to care about the natural world. Diversity and inclusion matter to us. Our vision is of a future where both people and the planet thrive. Diversity is one of our core values and we strive to build a workplace where everyone feels a sense of belonging. All new staff who join us learn about the importance of diversity and inclusion to the Museum and how to contribute to creating an inclusive environment. We know we have more to do, but we are committed to ensuring that everyone who works at the Museum feels they can thrive and feel valued and respected. About DiSSCo UK The UK's natural science collections, comprising over 140 million items, are a vital global resource holding unique data on Earth's history and natural systems. However, their potential to address critical issues like biodiversity and climate change is limited by physical access and fragmented digitization efforts, with less than 10% currently available digitally. To unlock this potential, DiSSCo UK (Distributed System of Scientific Collections UK, ) - a consortium of over 90 UK natural science collections led by the Natural History Museum - is developing a national infrastructure as part of the UKRI Infrastructure Roadmap. This 10-year program, expected to receive around £155 million in investment, will focus on digitising a critical mass of collections into FAIR (Findable, Accessible, Interoperable, Reusable) data, supported by robust technology and innovative approaches like AI and robotics. Having already mobilised over 16 million records, DiSSCo UK aims to significantly accelerate digitisation from 2026, creating an unprecedented resource that promises substantial economic returns, efficiency savings for researchers, and groundbreaking research opportunities for a thriving future for both people and planet. About the role As Lead Developer, you will take technical ownership of the infrastructure required to deliver the DiSSCo UK programme, working at the intersection of science, data, and large-scale digital services. This is a rare opportunity to play a leading role in shaping the national digital infrastructure that will underpin the UK's contribution to DiSSCo. You will lead the design and delivery of a secure, sustainable, and scalable data storage and services architecture capable of supporting partners with widely varying technical maturity. This infrastructure will combine procured cloud-based services, delivered in partnership with AHRC/UKRI and commercial suppliers, with bespoke, mission-critical components developed in house. Your focus will be on building the connective tissue of the system: data mobilisation pipelines, publishing workflows and the integration of distributed local infrastructures into a unified national platform. You will work closely with the Global Biodiversity Information Facility (GBIF) as the primary access service, acting as a key technical partner in delivering globally discoverable biodiversity data. Based within the Natural History Museum's Science Directorate, you will help establish and grow the DiSSCo UK infrastructure team, providing technical leadership with long term national and international impact. This role offers the chance to influence strategic technical decisions from the ground up and to see them realised at scale. About you We are looking for an accomplished technical leader who thrives on delivering complex, high impact digital infrastructure. If you enjoy turning strategic ambition into working systems, setting technical direction and seeing challenging programmes through from concept to delivery, this is the role for you. You value collaboration as much as technical excellence. You communicate clearly and persuasively, build credibility with senior stakeholders and delivery teams, and are comfortable working across organisational and disciplinary boundaries to achieve shared goals. Motivated by impact and legacy, you are excited by the opportunity to shape a national scale programme from its early stages. You enjoy working in ambitious, evolving environments, taking ownership, and growing and leading a specialist team to deliver infrastructure that will support the UK research and biodiversity community for years to come.
