Contract Type: Freelance / Remote (compatible with UK time-zone)
Timeline: Start ASAP | MVP live by mid-September
Duration: ~1-2 months initial build, with potential for ongoing work
Compensation: Competitive / Based on experience
We’re looking for an experienced freelance Senior Fullstack Engineer to help build a modern web application from scratch, working closely with our data scientist. This is a fast-paced project aiming to launch a functional MVP by mid-September, with a roadmap for iterative feature releases.
The Project:
Oko Ag is an early stage agri-tech startup simplifying agricultural funding for farmers and advisors in the UK. You’ll build our MVP — a directory of UK agricultural funding — helping users discover, search, and manage relevant funding opportunities.
Key Requirements:
- Build the full tech stack from scratch
- Collaborate with data scientist on backend/data architecture (data schema in progress)
- Design and implement a responsive, user-friendly frontend (for desktop, mobile, iPad)
- Deliver a robust MVP - funding directory, search/filter, user accounts, and admin CMS
What Needs to Be Built:
- Clean, responsive frontend UI
- Funding directory interface (using our database)
- Basic search, filtering, sorting (for MVP)
- Geo-spatial search (PostGIS integration — post-MVP)
- User accounts and saved items
- Admin CMS for managing funding entries
- Payment gateway integration
Preferred Tech:
Open to suggestions, but prefer a Python-based stack with PostGIS (or geospatial query support). Use of third-party tooling and frameworks encouraged to accelerate development.
You Should Have:
- Proven experience as a fullstack engineer
- Able to work independently with speed and attention to quality (“hacker” mindset)
- Experience building and launching production-ready web apps solo
- Experience with geospatial data a plus
