  Write clean, maintainable, and performant code (TypeScript, React, Next.js)

  Improve architecture, scalability, and reliability of the platform

  Maintain a high bar for testing, monitoring, and code quality

• Shape solutions, not just code

  Collaborate with Product, Design, and Marketing to define the right problems

  Contribute to technical decisions with a strong product and business mindset

  Focus on outcomes like conversion, performance, and user experience

• Elevate the team

  Mentor engineers through code reviews, pairing, and feedback

  Share knowledge and promote best practices across the team

  Help drive a culture of ownership, pragmatism, and continuous improvement

• Collaborate across functions

  Work closely with stakeholders to plan, estimate, and deliver work

  Communicate clearly on progress, risks, and trade-offs

  Contribute to a strong, transparent engineering culture

What we're looking for

• Strong experience building production applications with JavaScript/TypeScript and React

• Strong product mindset - focused on user impact and business outcomes

• Experience in A/B testing and data-driven optimisation

• Solid understanding of performance, SEO, and web best practices
