Software Developer – Ruby on Rails

Every week, thousands of sports club’s wrestle with spreadsheets, bank transfers, and chasing payments. We're ending that. TeamFeePay is building the platform that lets clubs of any size — from a grassroots youth football club to a multi-team rugby organisation — manage memberships and payments without the headache. We're growing fast, clubs worldwide are coming on board, and we need engineers who want to build something that matters.

To help communities build sustainable grassroots football clubs by revolutionising club management, finance, governance, safeguarding and communication.

We build people-first technology that reduces admin, builds trust, and supports clubs to thrive — not just survive.

To give you a real sense of the work: most of our clubs are run by volunteers — parents and coaches giving up their evenings and weekends. We've built a system that lets a club treasurer set up payment collection for hundreds of families across multiple age groups in minutes, replacing what used to be weeks of spreadsheets, WhatsApp messages, and awkward conversations at the sideline. That's the kind of problem you'd own here. Other things on the horizon include transforming our club onboarding into a streamlined self-service experience, building smarter automation that takes even more admin off volunteers' plates, and rearchitecting core systems to handle rapid international growth.

Rails (our core), Hotwire (Stimulus + Turbo), Heroku for existing infrastructure, Kamal + Hetzner for new deployments. PostgreSQL. We keep things modern and pragmatic — no legacy baggage for the sake of it.
