🔔 Please note before applying: this is a high level Intermediate role within our team, tipping towards Senior and so we are really keen to see Product Engineers with solid commercial experience working with TypeScript and React. If this is you then we would love to hear from you!

🖥 Hybrid working as standard: 2 days a week in the office, the other 3 days remote (or office if you prefer)
Our mission:
Two in five people in the UK rent their homes. Our mission? To be the gold standard platform for renting
We started Goodlord because we wanted to make renting simple and transparent for everyone involved: the agent, the landlord, and the tenant. We knew Generation Rent would lead to more tenants, with higher digital expectations and we were confident we could provide a solution
Like all scale-ups it’s been a bit of a rollercoaster journey, but we’re now stronger than ever, with around 3,000 letting agents using the platform, exciting and varied products and 350+ Goodlordians across the group supporting the mission!
The Opportunity:
Work with product managers, designers, business colleagues and other engineers to understand end-user problems
Propose end-to-end solutions to solve these problems
Assist your squad by delivering features and with them
Use your knowledge on React and Typescript to continuously identify areas of improvement and propose fixes
Review the code of your colleagues
Offer mentoring to less experienced developers
What we need from you:
Significant commercial experience building web based applications using Typescript and React.
Propose end-to-end solutions to solve these problems
An excellent understanding of state management and creating components and pages that are reusable and testable, and an understanding of architectural patterns like DDD and microservices.
Proficient at writing automated tests using frameworks such as Jest, React Testing Library or Cypress.
Strong knowledge of web application security and how to guard against common vulnerabilities.
Aside from the role, the people, our culture and our mission, we have some other things that make Goodlord a pretty awesome place to be. Here’s a few favourites amongst Goodlordians (check out our careers page for more info).
Grow with Goodlord: your development is important to us, that’s why we are Great Place to Work - certified. Have a goal in mind? Share it with us so we can use some of our annual development fund to support it. We guarantee you’ll learn loads and develop both personally and professionally!
Your well-being matters: bi-weekly coaching with Sanctus to provide Goodlordians with a safe place to talk and support your mental health
25 days holiday (plus UK Bank holidays) plus 1 day per full holiday year up to 32 days: We believe regular breaks are essential for well-being and we encourage (some may say expect!) all Goodlordians to take full advantage of their annual leave entitlement.
Supporting your family: we offer Goodlordians of all genders a generous 3 months of fully-paid time off to look after their new arrivals
Our team: we’re an energetic, sociable, and talented bunch who are super passionate about what we do and determined to make a difference. We’re all in it together, we learn from each other, we’re genuine and we don’t have time for politics
