About the role

A key Client of ours are looking to bring a talented React developer into the team to take full ownership and and lead the technical direction from day one.

You'd play a key role in building and enhancing both customer-facing and internal parts of the application, collaborating closely with stakeholders to bring new features to life. The work starts with understanding what's there and ends with you owning the technical direction of the product. You'd also help build out the development function as the team grows, including mentoring future hires.

This is a role where your contributions are genuinely valued and where you can make a tangible impact on a product the business depends on.

What you'd be doing

Taking ownership of the existing React and Laravel application, including the parts that need refactoring or rethinking.
Building new features end-to-end, from initial discussions with stakeholders through to production.
Improving performance, reliability, and developer experience as the codebase matures.
Working with the wider team on planning, prioritisation, and estimation.
Reviewing future hires' work and helping shape how the development function grows.

Essential skills

Strong commercial React experience, including modern patterns such as hooks, context, and sensible component composition.
Solid Type Script.
Good HTML and CSS, focusing on responsive design.
Comfortable with relational databases (MySQL or similar) and writing reasonable SQL.
Confident with Git, branching, and code review.
Strong written and verbal communication, since you'll be working closely with non-technical stakeholders.

Strongly preferred

Commercial PHP experience, ideally with Laravel (Symfony also fine).
Track record of inheriting and improving an existing codebase, rather than only greenfield work.
Familiarity with cloud platforms (AWS, GCP, or Azure) for hosting and deployment.
Testing experience (Jest, Pest, PHPUnit, or similar).
Exposure to CI/CD pipelines.

Nice to have

Mentoring or technical lead experience.
