Company: Potato
Design and Engineering studio under AKQA which is under WPP, though we don't do much with them beyond acting as their primary choice for Voice projects that come through (i.e. alexa, google home etc).
Very tightknit crew here. Most friendly group of people I've ever worked with. Tends to be prototyping work so lots of spinning up new projects and rapid iteration. Some of our projects are more long term. Great deal of respect for vacation, work life balance, that sort of thing. We have three dogs in the office too :)
Projects are all over the place, we've done recruitment platforms, marketing sites, as well as really hardcore in depth software tech education games, and TONS of voice work. Our sister studios do a lot of AR work (and they're hiring as well, see below).
The engineering manager role is here https://p.ota.to/jobs/engineering-manager-san-francisco, we're still writing up the job listing for the web dev roles. If you can be trusted to build a prototype frontend with a backend in node or python, we'd be interested in a talk to see if we're what you're looking for in your next role.

We do have some jobs open in London and Bristol as well, but I can't really speak to them. Feel free to take a look: https://p.ota.to/jobs/
