About the Role

You will join a small,



highly senior engineering team of around 10 in-house developers, where autonomy and technical judgement are important. The role is 100% backend, working across a platform that combines DVR cameras, event reconstruction, tracking, telematics, fuel and EV data. Customers are largely public sector, making security, GDPR and footage retention key considerations.
