💰 $9M Seed Round - Nous on 2022-02

B2C • SaaS • Artificial Intelligence

Nous is a UK-based consumer service powered by AI that automatically tracks household bills and service contracts, finds better tariffs or renegotiates current deals (energy, broadband, mobile, mortgages and more), and handles the paperwork and switching for users. It offers a free tier and a Premium subscription with additional features and cash rewards, and aims to save households time and money during the cost-of-living crisis.

📋 Description

• You will: • **Own 2–3 high-leverage bets per year**, not just projects. • **Turn fuzzy problems into clear plans.** • **Ship small, end-to-end slices every 1–2 weeks.** • Be a **domain owner** in one or more critical areas (e.g. front-end, workflows/Temporal, infrastructure, agentic-AI core, data modelling). • **Design “paved roads” for a small, fast team.** • Act as a **multiplier for other engineers.** • Create **written clarity** around the work you lead. • You’ll report directly to the CTO and work closely with Product, Ops, and rest of leadership. There aren’t many layers: how you frame problems and ship solutions will directly influence what the company does next. • In your first 6–12 months, you might: • **Re-design how new members see value.** • **Invent and roll out a standard pattern for long-running switches.** • **Own the front-end platform or another core domain.** • Throughout, you’ll be shipping code regularly, not just writing docs or drawing diagrams.

🎯 Requirements

• You’re **hungry and product-obsessed**: you care as much about the member outcome and UX as you do about the elegance of the system behind it. • You’ve led **fuzzy, cross-functional bets** before – pulling together product, ops and engineering to ship something that really moved a metric. • You get frustrated when you see **wasted effort or avoidable complexity**, and you naturally design paved roads so others don’t trip on the same things twice. • You’re happiest when you’re **hands-on in code**, but you also enjoy writing the doc, drawing the diagram, and bringing others with you. • You think in **systems and primitives**, not just features: contracts, workflows, failure modes, observability. • You enjoy **mentoring, growing, and unblocking** other engineers, can demonstrate that you’ve been effective at it, and feel a bit restless if you’re *just* shipping your own tickets. • You’re comfortable with our stack, and can demonstrate expertise on key parts of it. • You prefer a **small, sharp, in-person team** over a huge org with lots of pre-defined processes, and you’re itching for a “big unlock” moment to have outsized impact.

🏖️ Benefits

• 🏢 A great office set up for lots of collaborative working. We already need more whiteboards • 💻 The equipment / setup / training you need to do your best work (and of course, AI subscriptions, including Claude Code Max tier) • 🤝 A high-context environment with lots of exposure to the big decisions - be in the room when it happens (literally) • 🏡 Flexibility around remote work. If you sometimes just need to get your head down, that's fine • ☕ __Very good coffee__ • 🍽️ A well-stocked kitchen (featuring a wildly popular toastie maker) so you can always make yourself a breakfast or light lunch on the house • 🎉 Informal social *every week*, something bigger every month, plus a set-piece event in the summer and again at Christmas - we're not robots! • ✈ 33 days paid holidays (including bank holidays) • 💊 Health and dental cash plans, including an employee assistance programme • 🚴 Travel benefits, (e.g., the cycle-to-work scheme) • 💰 A generous cash referral bonus if you introduce us to someone who joins the team
