Apply modern engineering practices including TDD, CI/CD, and component-driven development
Collaborate in cross-functional teams with a strong product mindset
Continuously improve code quality, performance, and usability
Contribute to design systems and scalable frontend architecture

This role suits engineers who are product-minded, collaborative, and care deeply about building high-quality user experiences.

Strong, recent experience with:

React and modern frontend development (hooks, state management, component architecture)
TypeScript in production environments
Building scalable, maintainable frontend applications
Integrating with APIs and backend services
Node.js for backend or full-stack development (desirable)
Modern testing practices (unit, integration, end-to-end)
CI/CD pipelines and modern development workflows
Working in cross-functional, product-led teams

Nice to Have

Exposure to accessibility (a11y) best practices
Experience working in public sector or regulated environments

Long-term, stable programme of work
Opportunity to build meaningful, user-facing digital products
Strong product, design, and engineering collaboration
Modern engineering culture focused on quality and delivery
