About you:

• 7+ years' commercial full stack development experience

• 2+ years in a senior or technical leadership capacity

• Strong experience with React, TypeScript, Java, Spring, and Hibernate

• Knowledge of RESTful APIs, SQL, and front-end tooling (Redux, React Query, testing frameworks)

• A passion for clean architecture, reusable code, and exceptional user experience

Why join: You'll be joining an established technology business operating on a global scale, working with a highly skilled engineering team who value collaboration, innovation, and technical excellence. This is a great opportunity to make a real impact - owning architecture, guiding modernisation, and shaping product direction.

Benefits include:

• 27 days annual leave plus bank holidays

• Hybrid and flexible working options

• Private health insurance and life cover

• Enhanced maternity/paternity leave

• Sick pay

• Ongoing training and development support
