Come and work with us

We don't bite! We're based in the heart of York and we'd like to think we're a pretty good bunch.

A team of individuals

We want to help the people we work with – both clients and team members – achieve success that’s meaningful
to them.

What that success looks like is up to you. We’re here to help you get there. Although we’re from varied backgrounds, with different skills and specialisms, we’re united by being endlessly curious, generously non-judgemental and – crucially – committed to putting our heads together to get the best possible result.

What our people think

No set career path

Choose your own adventure

We love hiring people with varied experience, because it gives us a richer insight into our clients' worlds.

Once you're on board, we want you to decide what your success looks like.

Don't worry – we're here to support you to get there, but we believe people work best when they're shaping their own destiny (as much as possible).

The right environment

You need to concentrate. We know that.

Our offices are quiet and friendly. They're modern but characterful, and they're slap bang in the middle of the beautiful city of York.

There's lots of break out space for impromptu meetings, downtime, and thinking time, as well as a formal space for bigger, longer meetings. And there's not a single desk phone in the office.

We're currently working in a hybrid way, with most – but not all – of the team in the office anything from one day a week to full time. We'll support your preferred way of working as much as possible, depending on your role.

We have plenty of in-person activities too, from payday lunches to board-fame, cinema nights, and the occasional pub trip!

Benefits beyond the office

Family friendly. Really.

Our hours are capped at 37.5 a week. We don't do overtime. Chat to us about flexible working hours that suit your life outside work.

Join the team and you'll get generous holidays, private healthcare, and a hefty contribution to your pension.

Your development

Not just in code ...

We love to see our team members grow. We'll actively support your growth into areas such as team leadership, SCRUM, requirements capture, AWS certification, functional programming, machine learning, application performance, and application security. And you'll use a huge range of tools, from relational databases and queuing systems, right through to real-time stream processing.

The huge variety of work we do means you'll never get bored. In the last few years, we've worked on everything from karaoke to ship-broking, from video-mixing to teaching doctors. Take a look at our work page to see some recent projects.

We're proud of the careers we've helped progress. People go on to great things after they've worked for Isotoma. For example, recent Isotoma alumni have gone on to Rockstar Games, Apple Music, BBC iPlayer, BBC News, Google, Zoople, JP Morgan, and Raspberry Pi.

Enabling quality

We're passionate about the quality of the things we make and the way we go about making them.

We want to help the people we work with – both clients and team members – achieve success that's meaningful to them; whether that's an improved bottom line, delighted customers, career progression, new skills, or a better work/life balance.

Isotoma was set up by developers and the development process is at the heart of everything we do. We understand that a good working environment and lack of distractions are absolutely key to concentration and good code, and we strive to provide the best working environment we can. We're a family-friendly employer too (with, among other things, flexible hours and a health plan) and we're focused on doing everything we can to make sure you're able to get the best out of everything you do.

Get in touch

We craft trailored solutions for unique challenges, not off-the-shelf or one-size-fits-all. We thrive on finding beautiful answers to complex challenges, using our experience and expertise to create results you can rely on.
