Mark43 is a public safety technology company trusted by over 200 police forces worldwide. We build cloud-native software on AWS that police forces and emergency services rely on in their most critical moments, from managing custody records to dispatching officers in the field.
Our UK team of 25 is based in Central Manchester, helping British police forces replace outdated, fragmented systems with modern, resilient software. We're part of a 400-person global company, but the UK team operates with startup energy: small enough that your work is visible, big enough that you're backed by serious investment.
We're hiring Senior Software Engineers who want to build systems that genuinely matter.
You'll work across the full stack, building the software that UK police custody suites depend on every day. Our team owns features end-to-end, from database migration to UI and our stack includes:
Frontend: React, TypeScript
Backend: Java, Spring Boot
Data: MySQL, GraphQL
Infrastructure: AWS, Kubernetes, Argo CD, Terraform
Observability: Datadog
We're also genuinely investing in how AI changes the way we build software. We don't just use Copilot for autocomplete. We're building agentic workflows into our development process, using tools like Claude Code to automate routine work, accelerate code review, and let engineers focus on the problems that actually need human judgement. If you're excited about shaping how a team works with AI, not just using it, this is the place.
Designed and shipped a new workflow for custody officers processing detainees, from GraphQL schema through to React components
Investigated a production issue using Datadog traces and logs, then pushed a fix the same day
Paired with a teammate to untangle a tricky state management problem in a booking form
Built an agentic workflow that reviews PRs, learns from human feedback, and posts weekly engineering highlights to Slack, all automatically
Managed a cross-team feature end-to-end — designed the architecture, broke work into parallel workstreams, and coordinated junior engineers to deliver on time
Reviewed a pull request, spotted a change that would unintentionally affect other parts of the app, and directed a safer approach in the comments
Prototyped a new idea at one of the hackathons we run twice a year, a chance to experiment with new tech, explore wild ideas, and ship something fun with no constraints
You write clean, maintainable code and care about the impact of your work. We're an AI-first team. AI tools are part of how we work every day — writing code, reviewing pull requests, investigating issues, and automating routine work. We expect you to be comfortable working alongside AI and keen to push what's possible with it.
Professional software engineering experience, including ownership of complex systems and delivery of large-scale technical initiatives
Strong technical judgement and the ability to make architectural decisions
Experience leading projects across multiple teams or domains, influencing technical direction beyond your immediate area
A strategic mindset, with the ability to balance immediate delivery with long-term technical health
Experience with our stack: Java, JavaScript, TypeScript + React, and MySQL
Experience with AI-assisted development tools like Claude Code and how they can improve your workflow
A strong sense of ownership and accountability for both technical outcomes and team success
Confidence operating in ambiguous environments and helping teams navigate technical trade-offs
A collaborative mindset and strong communication skills
28 days holiday plus UK bank holidays
Private medical, dental, and vision insurance through AXA Health and BUPA, fully paid for you and your dependents
18 weeks paid parental leave for primary caregivers plus a ramp-back programme
Income protection (75% of salary) and death in service cover (4x salary), fully paid
Pension through Nest with 3% employer contribution
Gym reimbursement for you and your partner
Equipment allowance to set up your home office
AI tooling including Claude Code Enterprise and ChatGPT Enterprise licences provided
Spring Health membership with therapy sessions and mental wellness tools, fully covered
Company performance-based bonus
Paid sabbatical of one month at your five-year anniversary
Biannual hackathons, learning budget, and a team that genuinely invests in your growth
Humility. You know the best ideas win, no matter where they come from. You ask questions before making assumptions and you're as happy being wrong as being right, because either way, the team gets to a better answer.
Inclusivity. You respect expertise in all its forms and actively seek out perspectives different from your own. You make space for others and assume good intent.
Excellence. You care about quality in your code, your reviews, and how you communicate. You're not satisfied with "it works" when it could be better, and you encourage the same standard in those around you.
Diligence. You take ownership, mind the details, and understand that the software we build is used in moments that genuinely matter. You don't cut corners when people are depending on the outcome.

Applicants must be authorised to work in the UK. We are unable to sponsor or take over sponsorship of an employment visa at this time.
