Job description

We are seeking a motivated and passionate front-end developer to join our highly performing product development team and help shape the front-end web client that powers our enterprise applications. This role is for someone who enjoys building high quality, well performing user interfaces and driving continuous improvement — evolving the framework, component patterns and reusable building blocks that the broader development team adopts. Working alongside senior technical team members, you will take ownership of front-end technical decisions, apply modern engineering and AI automation practices to lift productivity, quality and consistency across the development team.

Key responsibilities

• Shape the front-end architecture — the framework, component patterns and reusable building blocks that the wider team adopts
• Build responsive, accessible and genuinely fast interfaces that hold up at enterprise data volumes and user loads
• Help define and continually lift our front-end engineering standards and design system, alongside senior technical leadership
• Apply AI and automation across the development lifecycle — identifying where engineering processes can be automated, then building, proving and rolling out the approach
• Bring ideas to the table — evaluate emerging tools, patterns and technologies, and make the case for the ones worth adopting
• Keep the quality bar high through automated testing, secure coding and thoughtful code review
• Mentor the developers around you, share what you learn, and help lift the capability of the team
• Work closely with product and back-end teams, keeping stakeholders up to date throughout the course of projects

About you

Deep, demonstrable capability in React.js — hooks, component architecture and modern state management — and work you can show us

Proven ability to design and implement application framework patterns, design systems and reusable component libraries

Sound understanding of RESTful API integration and Distributed Systems (n-tier) architecture

Practical experience with automated front-end testing frameworks and CI/CD practices

Hands‑on experience applying AI and automation to engineering work — and the judgement to validate the output, with an eye to quality, security and intellectual property

The ability to reason through a hard problem unaided, and to explain and defend a technical decision clearly

An enterprise mindset — you understand that software people rely on every day has to be reliable, maintainable and secure
