About Us

At Hometree, we want to build the best smart home business in the world by redefining how customers interact with their homes.

 

Homeowners are now putting more and more technology into their homes so that they can make them safer, more comfortable, and better for the environment.  The problem for homeowners is that the more cameras, solar panels, energy storage batteries, and other connected devices they put into homes, the more complicated they get.  Our mission is to make homes much easier to manage for homeowners through our proven ability to link skilled tradespeople with best in class technology and customer service.

 

We have started on our journey by offering a suite of insurance and maintenance products to homeowners & landlords. We provide breakdown cover on a range of essential household items such as heating, electrics, and plumbing.  We are disrupting a £2bn market which has large incumbents providing a terrible experience. We are growing 30% each month, and we are the best-rated Trustpilot provider of these services in the UK. This is an excellent springboard for the next stage of our journey - to conquer the rest of the home! 

 

We are a five-year-old business backed by some of Europe's leading Venture Capital firms and other very influential angel investors. We have an incredibly diverse, experienced & passionate team with track records in some of Europe's leading tech start-ups, private equity, consulting, investment banking, and much more.

 

The Role 

Our team’s mission is to build the most secure, efficient, and most trusted platform for providing home services; including a customer control centre for managing contracts, and a dynamic routing and subcontractor management system. We work as a small, tight-knit team, make quick decisions affecting all Hometree tech products, and have the flexibility to learn and develop with whichever tools are best for the job, be it architectural choices, Machine Learning methods, or choice of low- or high-level languages. 

At Hometree you’ll have a lot of responsibilities from day one: 

  • Plan, design, develop, and maintain AWS web applications and software architectures
  • Building proof-of-concept mock-ups and rapid prototypes, leading to product ownership
  • Mentoring other developers
  • Work collaboratively across the business in a multi-functional role

Desirable Skills:

  • JavaScript, Node.js, SASS, HTML
  • CI/CD
  • Great written and oral communication skills
  • AWS serverless infrastructure (Lambda, RDS, API Gateway, S3)
  • Architecture/DevOps/Infrastructure
  • LitElement or React
  • Scalable relational database design

 

Apply if you are:

  • A team player who works well with others including those outside the engineering team. Innovation - you need to be open and willing to adopt new ways of working. Our processes are constantly evolving and we always look to take a lean approach.
  • Customer-focused - You should always be thinking, “What can I be doing to deliver the most value to our customers?”
  • Passion, energy, focus and enthusiasm for both the role and our business.
  • Willing to grow - an ability to work quickly with a love for constant learning and personal development.

 

Behaviours we value as a business

  • Radical Candour - Respectful but direct honesty
  • Ownership - Own your results without complacency
  • Obsessed - Customer obsessed, everything else secondary
  • Trust in Teamwork - Doing the right thing, even when no one is watching
  • Speed - Fast, data-driven decisions and results

 

Our Commitment to you

We are working hard to create a representative, inclusive and super-friendly team, because we know that different experiences, perspectives and backgrounds make for a better workplace. And that creates a better experience for our customers. Hometree doesn’t discriminate on the basis of race, colour, religion or belief, gender, national origin, age, sexual orientation, marital status, disability or any other protected class.

 

Hometree’s a workplace where you can be yourself. Dye your hair purple. Take your laptop to the sofa. Whatever helps you feel comfortable and happy at work. We want to do whatever we can to help you grow in your career (and make enough space for a fulfilling home life too).

 

We are 10 minutes from Kings Cross, with the nearest Tube station being Highbury & Islington.

This is your opportunity to join one of the fastest-growing European startups' in the home services sector backed by world-leading venture capitalists and angel investors. To set you up for success we will provide you with a MacBook Air, provide a company Breakfast every Thursday, drinks every Friday at 5pm along with quarterly company-wide social events. To top it off, all employees receive a Perkbox subscription with a host of perks.

Our mission:

To change the way the world shops, so that customers and merchants get more for what they have.

A little about us:

Purple Dot allows shoppers to treat themselves to items they really want, without hunting for discount codes or rummaging through sales racks. All we ask in return is patience, shoppers typically wait for seven days while we confirm the discount with the retailer. We call this new way to shop 'non-instant shopping'.

For retailers, non-instant shopping opens the opportunity to convert more shoppers in a shorter timeframe than a traditional sales cycle while maintaining control of what volume to sell at a discount.

The founders, John Talbott and Madeline Parra are serial entrepreneurs — having sold their previous startup Twizoo to Skyscanner in 2017. Purple Dot is backed by leading US and Europe VCs and angel investors including Connect Ventures, Tiny.VC, Paul Forster — founder of Indeed.com, and Alex Roetter — previous SVP of Engineering at Twitter.

We work in a lovely office with free drinks and snacks and have a desk here just for you. We offer a friendly and flexible work environment.

A little about you:

We're looking for someone to help bring the Purple Dot brand to life. To take an existing brand identity and then translate throughout our website, partner websites, social, marketing materials, and through graphics. 

You'll have experience designing for the web (and sometimes not for the web) using existing brand visual and verbal identity to create web layout and graphics. Someone who understands how to put together a consistent brand image through multiple mediums and build up a design language. Most importantly, someone who wants to have fun and move fast!

What You'll Do:

Work 2-3 days per week in London, we are flexible with how you want to split the time over the week.

  • Work with founding team on iterations of our consumer (www.purpledotprice.com) and b2b web products.
  • Take an established brand identity and product requirements and produce responsive, dev ready, website layouts and graphics.
  • Use our existing brand identity to build out the Purple Dot design language.
  • Work with the founding team on sales collateral (presentations) to tell the story of Purple Dot.
  • Design engaging emails to communicate with customers of the status of their order.
  • Design newsletter templates to engage our newsletter subscribers.
  • Support our social media manager by producing graphics for social.
  • Be scrappy. We are small, but fun and sometimes we wear multiple hats.
  • Be comfortable with change. Day-to-day priorities will change as we learn and evolve in the market.

What You've Done Before

  • A compelling portfolio showing
    • A range of clean UI solutions on the web.
    • A consistent brand across multiple mediums.
    • Illustrative graphic designs to bring a brand to life and used as explainers.
    • Sales and marketing materials (emails, sales decks, ads, handouts etc).
  • Proven experience delivering responsive designs for websites to be shipped to production (bonus if this was in ecommerce).
  • Knowledge of graphic design software like Adobe Photoshop, Illustrator, Sketch, InDesign and other 
  • Worked with (or as a) frontend developer(s) to develop an understanding of the limitations of front-end technologies.
  • Proven experience delivering brand consistent sales and marketing materials.
  • Familiarity with HTML and CSS (React experience a big bonus).
  • Bonus: experience doing some web based motion animation

The Company

Our mission at CyberOwl is to shift organisations towards an active security posture. Our first
product, Medulla, is a passive, protective monitoring system for detecting the early signs of cyberphysical attacks on ships.

Medulla uses a sophisticated algorithm based on Bayesian inference to systematically analyse
indicators typically associated with the early stages of malicious intrusion. It is a product of 10+ years
research, started in the MoD Defence Academy and completed at Coventry University.

CyberOwl has won several accolades, was shortlisted for the Lloyds Science of Risk Prize, selected
into the first GCHQ Cyber Accelerator Programme and is a founding member of the UK
Government’s centre of excellence for cybersecurity innovation – the London Office for Rapid
Cybersecurity Advancement (LORCA).

The Opportunity

You will join and help drive an agile development process so will need to be comfortable working in
such an environment. You will need to maintain a close working relationship with key individuals
such as the Scrum Master, Product Owner, UI Designer and other members of the development
team.

CyberOwl has an awful lot on our roadmap, so you must be comfortable in working in a fast moving
and reactive product development environment.

Job Requirements

Start Date: Immediately / March 2020

Key Accountabilities 

  • Ensuring that high quality components are produced in a timely manner. 
  • Mentoring and supporting the other members of the front-end team.
  • Working with the UX/UI Designed to implement their creative design
  • Working with the Backend developers and the REST API’s they provide
  • Working with the Product Owner and Scrum Master to plan development sprints

Required Key Skills 

  • React-JS/Redux
  • HTML5
  • CSS3, Less (or Sass)
  • JavaScript/Typescript
  • Web Sockets

Working Knowledge of Python and/or Java would be helpful 

Professional Level
 

  • Minimum of 2 years’ experience as a Front-End Developer
  • Minimum of 1 year React-JS experience
  • Experience of working with/developing IT security products is desirable but not essential

Key Behaviours  

  • We are looking for a completer finisher with an eye for detail b. 
  • You will need to demonstrate that you are both innovative and resourceful c.
  • This role will suit an inquisitive self-starter who is able to work independently but also as part of a team d.
  • You will be comfortable working in a start-up environment and show a requisite degree of flexibility e.
  • You must be methodical with an aptitude for analytical thinking


Personal Skills 

The development team at CyberOwl is geographically dispersed so you must be comfortable working in such an environment. For someone who is extremely selfdisciplined and has strong organisational skills it would be possible to work from home a up to four days a week. As a start-up, CyberOwl is often in “all hands to the pumps” mode, so this role would be ideal for someone who is inquisitive and looking to expand their horizons/knowledge and would like to eventually transition to become a full-stack developer.

skillsets we are looking for. Should this be the case, please send a covering letter and CV to our
