22 Full Stack Developer jobs in the UK — JavaScript, TypeScript, Python, and Go

About Fullstack jobs

Full stack engineering in the UK is a smaller but distinctive category. The 25 roles currently listed on Geekery.io are predominantly at scale-ups, agencies, and product-led startups — environments where one engineer is expected to own features end-to-end, from the database to the UI. Larger enterprises tend to split frontend and backend roles, which is why “full stack” listings are a small fraction of total UK tech hiring.

The most common stack pairings in UK full stack ads: TypeScript + React + Node.js + PostgreSQL (overwhelmingly), Python + Django/FastAPI + React, Next.js or Remix with TypeScript, and Go + a JS frontend. Most listings now expect at least one cloud platform (AWS, GCP, or Azure) and comfort with Docker.

UK full stack salaries: junior no data, mid-level £25,000–£130,000, senior £70,000–£120,000, and expert no data. The UK median is around £75,000. Full stack engineers at the same seniority typically earn 5–10% more than pure backend or pure frontend engineers because the role demands broader experience.

Full stack roles are strongly remote-friendly — around 55% of the listings on this page offer full remote working within the UK. They cluster in London, Manchester, Bristol, Leeds, and Edinburgh, plus a long tail of fully-remote scale-ups hiring anywhere in the UK.

What’s worth noting: full stack as a career path is increasingly being replaced by specialist frontend + specialist backend in mature product teams, or by product engineers who focus on shipping features rather than the full vertical. If you’re considering your next move, think about whether you want to deepen a specialism or stay broad.
