Job description
We're working with a well-established technology business to find a Senior Full Stack Developer for an immediate contract engagement.
This is a capacity play, not a transformation project. A delivery team needs an experienced pair of hands to clear a backlog of well-defined, high-volume tickets and unblock broader progress. The work is scoped, the architecture is established, and the expectation is that you'll be contributing meaningfully within days of starting., You'll join an Embedded product squad working across the full stack in TypeScript, React and Node.js (Express). The codebase runs on AWS with MongoDB, uses a MVC-style architecture, and leverages Bitbucket and Jenkins for CI/CD. Testing matters here - you'll write well-tested code and help raise the team's overall standard.
Requirements
- Strong full-stack background at mid to senior level
- TypeScript across the stack - React on the front, Node.js/Express on the back
- Practical AWS and MongoDB experience
- Comfortable with CI/CD pipelines (Bitbucket, Jenkins)
- Solid testing capability - TDD, unit and integration tests
- Used to working within established squads and switching context across small tickets
- Able to hit the ground running - this isn't a role for a slow ramp
The detail
- 3-month initial contract, strong likelihood of extension based on delivery
- Edinburgh-based with hybrid working
- Immediate or very short notice preferred
