• 5+ years commercial React experience
• Strong knowledge in computer science fundamentals and JavaScript design patterns
• Excellent problem-solving and debugging skills.
• Good understanding of UI/UX/accessibility best practices and considerations

THE ROLE

We’re looking for an experienced frontend engineer to join the engineering team. You’ll be working alongside a highly technical and motivated team and report to one of our Engineering Managers or Engineering Leads. You would be expected to apply fundamental engineering and problem solving skills to solve challenges and bring value to our user base, not just develop code. For people with the right mindset, this frame of mind provides an intellectually stimulating environment. Career progression is key here and there are opportunities to grow and move up our career ladder or transition into management.
The engineering team sits at the centre of everything we do at Plentific and is constantly tackling challenging problems, such as online payments, quoting, invoicing, booking, search / scoring algorithms, ETL, data pipelines, in-app messaging, real-time notifications and fraud prevention. Our frontend engineers mostly work with JavaScript (ES6, React, TypeScript, Node.js) on an increasingly more service-oriented architecture. The rest of the tech stack include Django REST Framework, PostgreSQL, PostGIS, AWS, Amazon Redshift, Kubernetes, Docker, Redis, Celery, Pandas, Numpy, Scrapy, Git, Jenkins, GitHub actions, Elasticsearch, Logstash and lots of raw SQL for analytics. We have a very large but clean code base as we put significant emphasis on design patterns, code readability, testability, maintainability and extendability.

RESPONSIBILITIES

• Collaborate with designers and product managers to translate wireframes and mockups into pixel-perfect user interfaces.
• Design, develop, and maintain scalable and maintainable frontend applications using modern JavaScript frameworks and libraries.
• Optimise frontend performance and ensure a seamless user experience across different devices and browsers.
• Write clean, well-tested, and efficient code that adheres to best practices and coding standards.
• Participate in code reviews
• Review, maintain and refactor existing code to meet the requirements for improved or new features
• Mentor junior developers and contribute to team growth and development.
• Write technical documentation of code, algorithms and APIs
• Identify, evaluate and communicate frontend best practices
• Stay up-to-date with the latest frontend technologies and trends.
