The challenge

For our customers and Partners, UW just needs to work – there when you need it, and invisible when you don’t. Just like flicking a switch.

Our proposition to customers is simple, but for our technology teams, the behind-the-scenes complexity is what makes it so interesting. Learn more about life in our Tech teams here.

We put people first. It’s all about you…

At UW, we prioritise not just what we deliver, but how and with whom we work. Our passion lies in tackling complex challenges alongside bright minds, recognising that true fulfilment comes from overcoming obstacles. By maintaining lightweight processes and fostering autonomy, we ensure swift delivery without compromising quality. Leadership at UW isn’t about lofty ideals but about getting hands dirty, providing guidance, and fostering a culture of support. We champion experimentation, shun egos, and value open discourse, collaboration, and continual learning.

We are looking for individuals proficient in Go, our primary backend language. Experience with managing infrastructure through Kubernetes across multiple clouds and on-prem clusters is essential, reflecting our dedication to efficiency and scalability.

At UW, if it’s open-source worthy, it’s open-sourced—reflecting our dedication to transparency and community collaboration.
