Job DescriptionA bit about the job and what you’ll deliver…
As a Senior Frontend Developer, you'll take ownership of a modern React and TypeScript application, helping to shape its architecture and deliver high-quality, accessible and responsive features. You'll work across the frontend stack, from component design and application architecture through to build tooling, testing and integration with AWS Amplify and AppSync/GraphQL services.
You'll have the opportunity to make sound technical decisions, improve existing patterns and help set engineering standards across the frontend. Working closely with designers, backend engineers and Product, you'll deliver polished, production-ready features while continually improving performance, maintainability, developer experience and the overall quality of the platform.
Please note, this is a remote role with attendance required at our office in Winnersh from time to time.
What you’ll do…
- Design, build, and maintain production features in a React 18+ TypeScript application
- Own and improve our Vite-based development and build pipeline, including custom plugin configuration
- Design reusable, maintainable components and frontend architecture
- Build accessible, responsive user interfaces using Ant Design and custom SCSS
- Integrate frontend features with AWS Amplify and AppSync/GraphQL backends
- Work with GraphQL schemas and client-side data-fetching patterns to deliver reliable application features
- Implement and maintain internationalization (i18n) across the application
- Write and maintain high-quality unit and integration tests using Vitest, Testing Library, and MSW
- Identify and address frontend performance, usability, accessibility, and maintainability issues
- Contribute to and enforce engineering standards around linting, formatting, testing, and pre commit checks
- Participate in code reviews and architecture discussions, providing thoughtful technical feedback
- Help maintain frontend dependencies and contribute to security and vulnerability auditing
- Investigate and resolve production issues and technical debt
- Collaborate with designers, backend engineers, and product stakeholders to deliver polished, production-ready features

What we’re looking for…
- Demonstrable professional frontend development experience, with significant hands-on experience building production applications with React and TypeScript
- Demonstrated ability to own features from technical design through implementation, testing, review, and delivery
- Ability to work independently in an established codebase while respecting and improving existing conventions
- Strong architectural judgement and the ability to explain technical decisions and trade-offs clearly
- A strong testing mindset — you write tests because they provide confidence and help the team move faster
- Strong attention to accessibility, maintainability, performance, and user experience
- A pragmatic approach to engineering: you know when to improve an abstraction, when to keep things simple, and when not to over-engineer
- Strong communication and collaboration skills across engineering, design, and product
- A genuine interest in improving both the product and the engineering practices used to build it
