Software Developer [2638-244499]

The role

We are seeking a Software Developer (often referred to as a Next.js Developer) with considerable years of commercial production experience to join our team.

In this role, you will not just be working through a rigid ticket queue—you will have real end-to-end ownership of systems, make critical technical decisions, and see them through. You will collaborate directly with our Head of Operations, our Product Lead, and our Founder/CEO to translate delivery requirements and rough designs into beautiful, functional, and secure web applications.

What you need

Next.js & React Expert: 3 to 5 years of demonstrated commercial experience building and shipping production-grade applications. You must have deep practical knowledge of routing, data fetching, rendering strategies (SSR, SSG, ISR), and the React ecosystem.
Modern JavaScript & TypeScript: Strong proficiency in modern ES JavaScript, asynchronous programming patterns, and API utilization. TypeScript is highly regarded and expected for writing clean, type-safe code.
Frontend & CSS Craft: A strong eye for interface detail, responsive design, and accessibility (a11y) basics. You can write CSS that is built to be maintained and can take a raw wireframe and make it feel like a polished, complete interface.
API & Systems Integration: Solid experience building and maintaining integrations (REST, GraphQL, Webhooks) between third-party platforms and internal tools.
Automated Testing & Code Quality: Proven experience writing automated unit/integration tests and taking an active, non-ego-driven role in code reviews.
Security Conscious: Safe, production-proven habits regarding managing environment variables, encryption, secrets, and handling highly sensitive employee and payroll data.
Superb Written Communication: Exceptional written English is a hard requirement. You must be able to document your work thoroughly and explain complex technical trade-offs to non-technical colleagues in plain, clear language.
Education: Bachelor’s degree in Computer Science, Software Engineering, or equivalent commercial experience.
Desirable - Azure Infrastructure: Hands-on experience deploying and operating on Microsoft Azure (App Services, Storage Accounts, Entra ID, Azure DevOps, or GitHub Actions CI/CD).
Desirable - Atlassian Tooling: Comfort using Jira and Confluence for task management, sprint planning, estimation, and central documentation.
Desirable - Python: Basic to intermediate skills for integrations, data transformations, and migration tooling.
Desirable - HR / Payroll Domain Exposure: Any experience integrating with human resources information systems (HRIS), applicant tracking systems (ATS), or payroll systems is a massive plus.
