About parkrun

parkrun is a health and wellbeing charity and our vision is to create a healthier and happier planet.

Since our conception in 2004, parkrun has evolved into a global social movement with a vibrant and inclusive community at its core. As of 2025, we have recorded over 120-million instances of walking, jogging, running, and volunteering.

Our mission is to transform lives by empowering people to be active, together, outdoors in their local community; and to protect parkrun for the generations to come. Each and every weekend, we deliver free, weekly timed events that people of all ages and backgrounds can join in. By tackling barriers to participation, we encourage communities to come together and embrace regular physical activity.

Now in its 21st  year, parkrun spans over 2,600 locations in 21 countries with more than 10 million people registered, and counting. 

And we have really only just begun.

The Junior Software Engineer will work on a wide range of systems and technologies, including C#, PHP, JavaScript, AWS, Azure. Working independently and collaboratively, you will help to build and maintain our websites, apps and backend systems.

No two days will be the same as you find ways to balance technical best practice against the requirements of the wider business as it grows.

The Junior Software Engineer must be proactive and have a willingness to learn, rather than having deep technical knowledge.

Please note this role will require regular travel between our London and Leeds office. 

Main responsibilities:

  • Supporting the implementation of accessible and responsive websites and apps, supporting parkrun’s mission to make a healthier, happier planet.

  • Proactively contributing to the development and maintenance of new and existing systems.

Essential experience requirements:

  • Degree in Computer Science or equivalent experience

  • Basic knowledge of a programming language (e.g. Python, PHP, JavaScript/TypeScript, C#) and databases (SQL or NoSQL)

  • Understanding of:

    • how REST APIs work

    • using automated software testing such as unit and integration tests

    • version control systems (e.g Git)

  • Awareness of:

    • frontend/backend decoupling and design patterns such as MVC

    • web accessibility requirements

    • computer security fundamentals and best practices

Desirable experience requirements:

  • Basic understanding of mobile application or web development

  • Awareness of accessible and responsive web pages

  • Team collaboration and ability to work independently

  • Usage of a cloud platform such as AWS or Azure

  • Awareness of best software development practices and methodologies such as Agile and Scrum

Most relevant skills:

  • Attention to Detail: Able to process detailed information effectively and consistently.

  • Problem Solving: Able to detect problems, recognise important information and link various data; to trace potential causes and look for relevant details.

  • Adaptability: Able to easily adjust to changing circumstances and learn new systems independently and quickly .

  • Communication: Able to convey and share ideas clearly, concisely and accurately, both verbally and in writing.

  • Initiative: Able to recognise and create opportunities and to act accordingly, with a desire to improve and learn new skills.

  • Teamwork: Able to work well with others in multiple situations to achieve a shared goal.

  • Organisation: Able to determine goals and priorities and to accurately  assess the actions, time and resources needed to achieve those goals.

  • Proficient in use of a variety of IT tools, such as Google Workspace, and the ability to learn new systems independently and quickly.

  • Technically curious and a problem solving mindset
