Founding Backend Engineer

*LeapFound · London (Remote) · Full-stack capable*

About LeapFound

LeapFound is building an operational intelligence platform: a system that pulls together real-world operational and financial data, reasons across it, and surfaces decisions before small problems become expensive ones. The architecture spans multiple layers, from data ingestion through to cross-signal reasoning and outcome learning. Core detection capability is already in production, and we're actively working with early customers.

We're not looking for someone to take a spec and execute it line by line. We want someone confident enough in their own judgement to tell us when the spec is wrong.

The role

This is a founding engineering position with real ownership of the backend, and enough range to step into the frontend when it's needed. The architecture and product direction are already documented. Your job is to build against that direction, push back where it doesn't hold up, and take full responsibility for what you ship.

What you'll be doing

●




Designing and shipping the signal-detection engines that turn raw operational data into something an operator can actually trust and act on.

●
Building out the cross-signal reasoning layer — the piece that correlates multiple independent signals into one coherent judgement, and the core of what makes the product work.

●
Owning the outcome-learning layer, so the system gets better from its own results over time.

●
Handling third-party data integrations, including mapping and reconciling data that doesn't arrive clean.

●
Taking responsibility for production reliability — monitoring, incident response, and getting to the root cause when something breaks.

●
Sitting in on architecture and product decisions, not just being handed them.

What you'll bring

●
Deep, production-grade fluency in Python, and real experience designing APIs, not just building on top of ones that already exist.

●
Robust command of relational databas
