WANTED! The World's Most Curious Remote Junior Full Stack Developer

One seat left. In the last month we hired three Junior Full Stack Developers. They're superstars: curious, fast-moving, AI-native builders who hit the ground running and are already shipping real work for real clients.

We want one more.

If you've been waiting for the right moment to join a team that's already going somewhere, this is it.

IMPORTANT: When you apply, please make sure the email subject line is exactly: "I build things that work"

WHO WE ARE

Minimal Viable Launch is the company that takes founders with extraordinary knowledge and levels them up into AI Tech founders. We take a non-technical founder's expertise (where the IP is locked in their head, their frameworks, their methodology) and turn it into a scaleable, sellable AI-powered product that transforms their business.

We're a remote-first team obsessed with finding the burning problem a client actually needs solved. And we solve it better than anyone thought possible. We read the AI research, translate it, and help founders understand what's actually possible right now.

We're educators at heart. Everyone who works with us (client or team member) comes away sharper. Our culture runs on three values: being lifelong learners, making people love working with us, and radical candour. We have a high-performance culture where the bar is real, but so is the support, the mentorship, and the growth.

We hire energetic, hungry junior people and accelerate them with world-class AI tools, mentorship, and frameworks that let them do things that should take years in months. This is how we operate every day.

We're growing fast and looking for driven people who want to build real products that real founders depend on.

WHAT WE'RE LOOKING FOR

We need a Junior Full Stack Developer to join our product team. This is a remote position (UK hours required).

You'll be building and shipping AI-powered products for our clients in real world applications that founders use to run and grow their businesses. We give you the tools and the training, and you bring the ability to learn fast and solve problems with curiosity and tenacity.

You'll work closely with senior developers, designers, and directly with founders. Some days you'll be building a new feature end-to-end. Other days you'll be debugging something weird in production. Every day you'll be using AI tools to move faster than should be possible.

If you're the kind of person who's already using AI to write better code and you want to be surrounded by people who think the same way, this is your role.

————————

KEY RESPONSIBILITIES

• Build and ship full stack features across our client products using AI specialist tools
• Write clean, functional code that works in production
• Collaborate with founders and teammates to translate business requirements into technical solutions
• Proactively identify and fix bugs, improve performance, and suggest better approaches
• Learn fast with new tools, new frameworks, new AI capabilities and share what you learn with the team

————————

QUALIFICATIONS, SKILLS, AND EXPERIENCE

• You can build things. Whether that's side projects, freelance work, bootcamp projects, or open source contributions. Simply show us what you've made
• Comfortable working across standard dev stack and AI tools (Claude): you don't need to be an expert in everything, but you should be curious about everything
• Strong problem-solver who reads error messages, checks the docs, and closes loops before asking for help
• Already using AI tools in your workflow. This is non-negotiable
• Excellent written communication. We're remote-first, so clear writing matters
• Motivated by learning and growth, not just a paycheque

Whatever path brought you here (recent grad, bootcamp, self-taught, career-switcher, or years of experience) you're welcome. What matters is what you can build and how fast you can learn.

SALARY & GROWTH

Junior Full Stack Developers start at £35,000 per year.

Here's what the path looks like:

• You'll start working alongside senior developers on real client projects from day one
• You'll be given progressively more ownership as you prove yourself. We power up people fast
• Performance is measured on output quality, reliability, and how well you collaborate
• Strong performers unlock Org Bounties: big, difficult challenges that accelerate your growth and your pay
• We actively promote from within. This role is a launchpad, not a dead end

BENEFITS

• Quarterly in-person team gatherings
• North Star Vision programme: personal 1:1 mentoring that maps your life goals alongside your role
• Flexible hours. We care about results, not when you're online
• World-class AI tooling and mentorship

PERSONALITY PROFILE

While there's never just one "right way" to do a job, the people who thrive here tend to share some traits:

• Builder mindset. You get energy from making things. You'd rather ship something imperfect and iterate than plan forever
• Relentlessly curious. You go down rabbit holes. You read changelogs for fun. You've probably annoyed someone by saying "but how does it actually work?"
• Self-directed. Nobody is going to tell you what to do every hour. You manage your own time and energy, and you deliver
• Low ego, high standards. You want feedback because you want to get better. You take corrections seriously

What energises you:

• Solving real problems for real people
• Learning something new every week
• Working with AI at the frontier
• Being trusted with real responsibility early
• Shipping fast and seeing impact

————————

MAKE SURE YOU'RE COMFORTABLE WITH

Before you apply, be honest with yourself about these:

• High-performance culture with real accountability. We hold each other to a high standard and actively move on those who don't meet it. The bar is real and everyone knows it.
• Remote-first means self-discipline. No one is watching over your shoulder. You need to manage your own time, energy, and output.
• AI-native working. Every role at Minimal Viable Launch involves working with AI tools daily. If you're not curious about AI or resistant to changing how you work, this isn't the right fit.
• Radical candour goes both ways. You will receive direct, honest feedback regularly and you're expected to give it too. If you prefer environments where people avoid difficult conversations, this will feel uncomfortable.
• Startup pace in a growing company. We move fast. Priorities can shift. You'll sometimes be asked to stretch beyond what feels comfortable and that's by design.
• UK hours required. You can be based anywhere, but you must be available and working during standard UK business hours.
• 60-day trial period. All roles start with a 60-day trial to make sure we're the right fit for each other.

————————

OUR VALUES

• Lifelong Learner: We are always learning, we love learning. We share what we learn and have a strong, driven learning culture. Learn and pass it on.
• Make People Love Working With You: We go above and beyond for our team and clients. It is everyone's job to make you love working with us. Go the extra mile. Execute.
• Radical Candour: Disagreement is okay. Strong opinions loosely held is okay. Feedback is not personal — it's seeking to level up the organisation, and you. Seek feedback and action it.
