Their platform transforms complex data into actionable intelligence, enabling clients to drive revenue growth and optimise decision-making.

Role Summary

We're hiring an Application Developer to build and run the Customer Portal — the single, client-facing access point to the company's products and tools. The role has grown out of Power BI work and still includes it: you'll build embedded, story-led visualisation that brings AI outputs to life. But it now goes wider — hands-on application development, building the portal and the tools inside it, and integrating AI outputs and agents using MCP. You'll build and deploy on a modern web stack (Vercel and similar) and own the portal in production. These aren't internal dashboards — they're licensed, client-facing assets that have to be beautiful, robust, and genuinely valuable.

Key Responsibilities

• Build and run the Customer Portal as the single access point to the company's products
• Develop front-end applications and tools end to end: wireframe, build, test, deploy, run, iterate
• Integrate AI outputs and agents into the portal using MCP in a governed way
• Build embedded Power BI and analytics visualisation using DAX and SQL with strong UX
• Deploy and manage on a modern web stack (e.g. Vercel), keeping the portal reliable in production
• Turn complex analytics into clear, intuitive interfaces that support better decisions
• Run client demos, walkthroughs and training to drive adoption
• Partner with data science, data engineering and architecture teams
• Track usage and iterate on design based on real client feedback

Required Skills & Experience

• Strong front-end development (React or similar modern JavaScript framework)
• Experience building and deploying on modern web platforms (Vercel or equivalent)
• Expert-level Power BI including DAX, embedding, theming and UX
• Strong SQL — comfortable building your own data layers
• Experience integrating AI/LLM outputs or agents into applications; MCP familiarity a strong advantage
• Ability to turn complex datasets into clear, story-driven interfaces
• Strong visual design sense and usability focus
• Comfortable engaging clients directly and running live demos and training

Preferred Qualifications

• Experience delivering licensed or productised client-facing tools, not just internal dashboards
• Experience building and running a portal or platform in production
• Understanding of AI agents, tool use, and governed integration patterns
• Familiarity with customer segmentation, marketing or commercial performance data
• Strong communication and data storytelling, adaptable to different audiences

Why Join?

• Own the application and visualisation layer of a cutting-edge SaaS platform
• Work at the intersection of AI, application development and business decision-making
• Collaborate with senior AI engineers, product teams and commercial leads
• Build tools used at scale across multiple industries and c
