Hi there! We are Digital Practice, a leading pet tech company founded by vets. We believe that easy access to the right vet means better welfare for animals. So we design and develop digital products that make it super simple (and a total pleasure) for pet parents and vet practices to connect and communicate.

We already have 400+ UK vet practices subscribed and in excess of 80,000 conversations a month. We also work with some of the biggest names in the veterinary industry and have clients across the UK and Australia.

We are looking for a talented individual to join our team and help develop our products using modern web technologies such as NestJS, Angular and Laravel.

Digital Practice connects pet owners and veterinary practices through a number of solutions including:

• WhatsApp and Facebook Messaging and Payments
• Appointment booking service
• Portal

In addition to those services, we have an ambitious and exciting roadmap of development which will see the company's reach expand both in the UK and internationally.

As the successful candidate, you'll be working with modern web development technologies to both improve existing services and develop new ones. You'll be joining a vibrant, fast-moving organisation where your ability to build innovative and creative solutions will be welcomed and where you can use your talents to have a real impact.

If you are a talented, self-motivated individual with a burning desire to start a career developing high quality web software in a friendly and collaborative team environment, then we want to talk to you.

What's in it for you

We've been around for over 15 years and have grown a company culture second to none. We're a close team but with self-drive that sees a lot of exciting things happening in every part of the company - if you've got an idea, we 100% want to hear it. We're still a small team which means big opportunity, especially with our recent funding.. And of course you get to work with exciting products that make our clients go WOW! -which is unbelievably satisfying.
