You
Here’s an idea of the sort of person we hope is reading this:
* Full stack: You’re comfortable working across front end and back end, and you can integrate the two with support from the team
* Innovative: You enjoy building across platforms, experimenting with AI, integrating third-party services, and learning what it takes to connect hardware and cloud services
* Curious: You see opportunities where others dont. If you open doors, push buttons, and hop over gates for adventures sake, youre our kind of developer.
* Collaborative: Our in-house digital teams work closely with our researchers, design engineers, and industrial designers, so youll need to be London-based and ready to bring your magic to our Shoreditch studio where the real alchemy happens.
* Practical: You’re comfortable with standard digital platforms and can deliver high quality under pressure and to tight timescales.
* Adaptable: Were not afraid to kill an idea. Sometimes, we build it, test it, and start again. If this dynamism excites you, youll make the work of your life at Native.
* Fun: Were not asking for stand-up comedy routines, but a passion for what you do is essential. We believe the best creatives genuinely enjoy their work.
