 * Comfortable working from Figma files and extracting assets.

## Description

You will sit in the development team, working across the full stack with a back-end bias. This is a hands-on delivery role with room to grow towards senior. You will be trusted with your own projects early, with support from senior developers and the Lead Designer on the product side.

What you will do

 * Build, deploy and maintain websites and web applications, front-end and back-end.
 * Maintain and improve our cloud Linux infrastructure.
 * Support front-end developers with local environments and tooling.
 * Keep our development and deployment processes healthy, including CI/CD pipelines.
 * Work with designers to pressure-test whether designs are feasible, and propose alternatives where they are not.
 * Produce development estimates for back-end work.
 * Build HTML marketing emails on occasion.
 * Meet internal stakeholders to scope requirements and report progress.
 * Train clients on the sites you have built, on occasion., * TypeScript and React or Next.js. A growing share of our product work is built this way and there is scope to move further in that direction.
 * Docker or another containerised local development setup.
 * Modern build tooling (Vite, webpack).
 * A CSS framework such as Tailwind, or a preprocessor such as Sass.
 * CI/CD with GitHub Actions or similar.
 * Cloud platform experience (AWS, Cloudflare).
 * Automated testing (PHPUnit, Playwright).
 * Accessibility standards (WCAG 2.2 AA). Much of our client base has a legal and moral obligation here, so it matters to us.
