Lead Frontend Engineer

Company overview

We run a marketplace with over 300,000 active sellers and fulfillment centres in four regions. Product reviews happen on Thursdays, with demos of whatever shipped that week.

• Track down cross-browser bugs in Safari, Chrome, Firefox and mobile browsers.
• Integrate with REST and GraphQL APIs and handle loading, error and empty states properly.

What you'll need

• 8-10 years building production web applications.
• Solid HTML and CSS, including Flexbox, Grid and responsive layouts.
• Comfortable using browser dev tools to debug network, layout and performance issues.
