Frontend Engineer

Front-End Engineer (React and Type Script)| Remote-first (UK) | One day a week in the office, South West

A world-leading, sports brand has just been backed by a major private equity firm, and it is using that moment to do something rare. It is taking a physical sport that millions of people already play and building the software that brings it online.

Cameras and computer vision watch live play, then turn it into online matches, real-time stats and training tools. Real product. Live, engaged users. Instant feedback on everything you ship.

You would join a small, cross-functional team and own the React and Type Script apps behind the web and mobile experience. You Will work shoulder to shoulder with a backend team (Go microservices on Kubernetes), and with the iOS, Android, Dev Ops, Computer Vision, Design and Product people who make the product what it is.

This is a role for someone with strong commercial and consumer front-end experience who wants room to grow on a product people genuinely love using.

• Build and maintain the front-end using React and Type Script
• Create reusable UI components with Shadcn
• Work with the backend team to integrate REST APIs
• Refine user stories with Product, and write automated tests
• Ship to production, then monitor performance and quality once it's live
• Share what you know through code reviews and pair programming

• 5+ years of commercial React experience
• Strong Type Script
• Shadcn, or deep experience with a component library like Radix or MUI
• Comfort consuming REST APIs
• Solid HTML and CSS with a real eye for responsive design
• Test automation (Jest, React Testing Library or similar)
• A startup temperament: fast-changing priorities, freedom to shape the work, and a figure-it-out attitude

Capacitor (the app wrapper in use here), Swift, Kotlin, or any background in sport or gaming.

You would sit at the front edge of technology in sport, with a high degree of autonomy and genuinely flexible hybrid working. You would also learn directly from a seasoned CTO and CPO, and from the technology investors backing the business.
