• Develop, build, and maintain both website and API systems.

• Ensure a globally robust and highly scalable approach to development to support our growing number of users and services.

Skills and experience required:

• Experience with Node JS and PHP.
• Experience designing REST APIs.
• Experience developing content management systems (preferably Drupal and Contentful).
• Practice test-driven development and continuous integration/deployment (we use Circle CI).
• Comfortable with relational databases (specifically MySQL).
• Experience developing applications in the cloud (preferably AWS).
• Experience with Web Services and Rest APIs using JavaScript
• Comfortable using a modern JavaScript framework (preferably React).
• Understand common web infrastructure tooling (CDN, databases, in-memory caches, etc).
• Agile experience of working within a continuous and iterative delivery cycle.
• Familiar with git-based workflows (pull requests, rebasing, etc.). We use GitHub.
• Understand accessibility and how it applies to your markup.
• Understand code performance and how this can affect a website’s overall loading

Experience of any of the following would be an advantage:

• Good CSS knowledge (Sass).
• Experience with e-commerce and integrating with payment gateways.
• Experience with GraphQL.
• Experience with Typescript.
• Experience with infrastructure as code (Terraform)

About you:

• You are enthusiastic and self-motivated, with the ability to work on projects proactively.
• You have excellent communication and interpersonal skills.
• You are keen to pass on knowledge to other team members.
• You are innovative and creative, with a logical and methodical approach to problem-solving.
• You have a meticulous attention to detail, with an overall passion for continuous improvement.
• You enjoy the flexibility to work on everything from infrastructure as code to front-end.
