The Practical Bits

Job Title: Frontend Software Engineer

Location: Remote / Flexible (we are open to candidates being based in the UK, or in Europe (+/- 3 hours GMT))

Contract Type: Permanent employee or employer of record (depending on location)

Salary: Competitive + bonus

Experience: 4+ years commercial experience as a Software Engineer

The Role

We’re hiring frontend engineers who care deeply about building great products and thoughtful user experiences. Whether you're focused on UI performance, design systems, or frontend architecture, what matters is your ability to reason about problems, make smart trade-offs, and collaborate well across disciplines.

You’ll help shape a collaborative engineering culture grounded in technical depth, product thinking, and a high bar for design quality. We’re building both the system and the team that will take us to the next stage — and you’ll have a real say in how we get there.

What We’re Looking For

  • Strong experience building and maintaining modern web applications in React
  • A product mindset: you care about usability, UX details, and how things feel in the hands of users
  • Solid grasp of software design: modular components, clean abstractions, thoughtful trade-offs
  • Comfort working with TypeScript, component libraries, state management patterns, and RESTful APIs
  • Familiarity with frontend testing practices (unit, integration, end-to-end)
  • Clear communication skills and a collaborative approach — we work in a remote-first, async-friendly environment
  • Experience with version control, CI/CD pipelines, and Docker-based dev environments
  • A bias toward shipping value, gathering feedback, and improving continuously

What You’ll Be Doing

  • Design and implement polished, performant user interfaces in React
  • Work closely with design and product to shape intuitive, accessible user experiences
  • Build reusable components, design systems, and frontend architecture that scale
  • Write clear, testable, and maintainable code — with long-term quality in mind
  • Participate in code reviews, pair programming, and shared technical decision-making
  • Own your work beyond the PR: help monitor, improve, and support the features you build
  • Contribute to frontend performance, reliability, and security as our system grows
