• Implement responsive, accessible, and performant UI components using Tailwind CSS and Typescript.
• Work closely with product and design to scope, plan, and deliver solutions aligned to business goals.
• Write modular, testable, and maintainable code following best practices.
• Participate in code reviews and provide constructive feedback to peers.
• Contribute to continuous improvement of our CI/CD pipelines and development practices.
• Monitor, debug, and optimise performance across the full stack.

• Familiarity with Next.js, Tailwind CSS, Express, and relational databases (PostgreSQL and MySQL preferred).
• Understanding of RESTful APIs, authentication, and session management.
• Experience with Git and modern CI/CD pipelines.
• Strong debugging and problem-solving skills.

Nice to Have

• Experience with containerisation (Docker) and cloud environments (AWS, GCP, or Azure).
• Understanding of the trade-offs of architectural and design decisions.
• Experience with Sequelize or similar tools.
• Knowledge of security, accessibility and performance best practices.
