ensuring continuity during the transition.
This role is best suited to an adaptable, mid-level engineer (3–5 years’ experience) who enjoys working

• Supporting the consolidation of current apps as part of the broader platform transformation
strategy
• Writing clean, testable, maintainable code across the stack (with an emphasis on front-end
technologies: React and TypeScript)
• Developing and consuming APIs to enable seamless data flows between systems
• Supporting the evolution of internal coding standards and shared component libraries
• Collaborating with the rest of the team to translate product requirements into software solutions
• Participating in team ceremonies, code reviews, and knowledge sharing

• Other tech stack and tools we use include Vite/Next.js, AWS and Git – you should be experienced
• Ability to work independently and communicate clearly in a distributed, asynchronous team
• A pragmatic mindset with a willingness to contribute where needed
Nice to haves :
We would prioritise candidates with these:
• Development experience with Java
• Wider experience with relational databases to include MySQL
• Good working experience with other tech stack components: Android, FastAPI/Django
• Experience contributing to platform transitions or systems consolidation projects
