Engineering @ The Printed Group
We are in what we class as the perfect position, with a team of experts in print, software development and customer service, a factory the size of a football pitch, and a design team worthy of challenging the best and an ethos of continual improvement.
Our tech stack is largely cloud-based, with a connectivity platform capable of enabling our own factory and servicing hundreds of other partners around the UK. We run multiple e-commerce sites, ERP and MIS applications. The platform is constantly improving and needs to scale globally in the next 12-18 months, allowing routing to appropriate partners and eventually linking to logistics systems for delivery to the consumer.
We have a multicultural team who build, grow and maintain our applications and the platform. Our engineering landscape provides the technology to extend our capabilities and features across our customer-facing applications, Printed.com and Ravensworth, and plus a connectivity platform for e-commerce store building and workflow systems. The tech stack consists of technologies ranging from PHP and .NET to front-end technologies like Vue, AngularJs and React, running on cloud services and with a modern CI/CD pipeline.
The role requires 2 days in our Cramlington offices per week, working closely with the engineering, production and operations teams.
