Job Description

I'm working with a down-to-earth company that gives its dev team the autonomy to lead changes and make a significant impact on the platform.

They are on a mission to bring all development in-house and we are now looking for a Senior Developer with strong TypeScript experience to join this growing team.

In this role, you will not only be hands-on with development but also play a crucial role in mentoring and guiding junior team members, helping to ease pressure on the manager.

Excellent communication skills are essential, as you will be responsible for clearly articulating technical principles and explanations of architecture and patterns.

The role is mostly remote, with occasional visits to their Bristol office. Ideally, you'd go to Bristol once a week, but there's some flexibility.

You must have the right to work in the UK and live within a commutable distance of Bristol.

Tech Stack and Experience:

  • Required: Strong TypeScript experience
  • Preferred: Node.js experience, with an interest in working with AWS and MongoDB
  • Bonus: Experience with GitHub, Time Series Data, PHP, MySQL, or IoT

One of the first tasks will be to rewrite and modernize a platform originally built in PHP, adding microservices. While a small part of their offshore team will handle bug fixes and other issues, the focus will be on writing clean, efficient code.

This is a genuine greenfield project, offering a unique opportunity to join a smart and collaborative team. It's an excellent time to join as they have substantial investment, providing the resources to do quality work. You'll enjoy the dynamic environment of a start-up without the associated risks.

If you're a passionate developer with a knack for TypeScript and are excited about the opportunity to grow both technically and as a mentor, please apply. I'm happy to discuss the role and the company in more detail.
