Job description

TXP is expanding its front-end engineering capability and is looking for an experienced Senior Front End Developer to join our growing delivery teams.

This is an opportunity to work on complex, modern applications at scale, using contemporary front-end technologies within a collaborative, Agile environment. You’ll play a key role in building high-quality, performant and accessible user interfaces while helping to maintain strong engineering standards across the team.

As a Senior Front End Developer, you’ll be hands-on across the full software development lifecycle, contributing to design, development, testing and deployment of React-based applications.

You’ll take ownership of technical delivery, support best practice, and work closely with other developers, testers and stakeholders to deliver robust, high-quality solutions.

We are proud of our culture and values, which guide everything we do:

  • Client Focus - We put our clients at the heart of every decision.
  • Adaptability - We embrace change and thrive in dynamic environments.
  • Responsibility - We take ownership and deliver with integrity.
  • Excellence in Delivery - We are committed to delivering outstanding results.
  • Success & Celebration - We celebrate achievements and learn from every experience.

As a Senior Front End Developer, you will embody these values in your leadership, decision-making, and client interactions.

  • Applying best practice around code quality, performance, accessibility and progressive enhancement
  • Supporting and mentoring junior developers and contractors where appropriate
  • Collaborating with back-end engineers and QA to deliver well-rounded solutions
  • Contributing to shared standards, patterns and continuous improvement across the team

Requirements

Essential experience:

  • Strong commercial experience with React
  • Experience with modern JS frameworks including Remix and React Router
  • In-depth knowledge of TypeScript and JavaScript
  • Solid understanding of server-side rendering (SSR) and progressive enhancement
  • Experience using the MUI React component library
  • Strong experience building and consuming REST APIs
  • Hands-on experience with end-to-end testing, ideally using Playwright
  • Experience working in Agile / Scrum teams
  • A good understanding of software design, implementation and deployment principles

Desirable exposure:

  • Accessibility and performance standards
  • Cloud platforms (Azure and/or AWS)
  • CI/CD pipelines
  • Technical architecture concepts
  • AI / LLM tooling

About You

  • An experienced senior developer with a strong track record of delivery
  • Detail-driven, quality-focused and methodical in your approach to problem-solving
  • Able to explain complex technical concepts clearly to non-technical audiences
  • Comfortable working independently and collaboratively within a team
  • Well-organised, with strong time-management and prioritisation skills
  • Proactive, enthusiastic and motivated to make a meaningful contribution
  • Keen to support others and help build team capability

Benefits & conditions
