We are looking for an experienced front-end web developer to join our growing engineering organization (headquartered in Reigate, ~300 engineers) developing a wide range of market leading InsurTech solutions. You will join us at an exciting time as we focus increasingly on cloud/SaaS solutions, upgrading existing products to new technologies and modern UX, as well as developing brand-new applications.
As a front-end web development lead, you will be working across multiple flexible agile squads delivering value on multiple greenfield workstreams in the delivery family. You will play a key role in designing and creating new features and enhancing existing code, whilst ensuring the foundational components continue to meet high levels of reliability, maintainability, usability, and performance.
The Role
1. Bring expertise and best practice having worked on professional, production-grade web applications, ideally in a SaaS or cloud-native context.
2. Work with the Product Manager and/or Product Owner to define, refine, and deliver the product backlog.
3. Contribute to the design and implementation of frontend architecture within an NX monorepo, ensuring consistency of approach across the team.
4. Collaborate with UX designers working in Figma to iterate on high-quality, accessible GUI implementations from wireframes and design assets.
5. Champion and enforce WCAG 2 accessibility standards across all UI deliverables.
6. Implement product code following best practices for maintainability, testability, and performance, including unit tests with Vitest and end-to-end tests with Playwright.
7. Review and debug code to identify defects, performance bottlenecks, and technical debt within a modern Angular/NestJS stack.
8. Actively use AI-assisted development tooling (GitHub Copilot in VS Code across multiple LLMs) and contribute to evolving best practices around prompt-driven development workflows.
9. Participate in Agile/Scrum ceremonies (sprint planning, stand-ups, retrospectives), striving to continuously improve team velocity and engineering practices.
10. Address UI governance requirements covering security, accessibility, and performance.
