Frontend Developer (City of London)

TransPerfect is an established company with a start-up culture seeking creative entrepreneurial people to join our team. We’re hiring a Frontend Engineer to be responsible for the quality, development, and execution of our software products. If you’re ready to join a growing company and make an immediate impact, we want to hear from you!

You will be joining the TransPerfect TechOps team, which has been a vital part of the company’s success since its formation over 10 years ago – delivering technology and services that have drastically simplified the lives of our clients and colleagues.

Your responsibilities and tasks will include:

• Implement defined features through code development, while also conducting thorough investigations and resolution of bugs.
• Develop modular, reusable code components to streamline development and maintenance.
• Utilize front-end frameworks like Vue.js or Angular to create scalable and reusable UI components.
• Optimize code and assets to ensure optimal load times and smooth performance.
• Perform code reviews to uphold quality standards.
• Collaborate within cross-functional teams to deliver solutions that either adhere to existing standards or establish new ones across departments.
• Manage internal and external implementation requirements and expectations through clear communication and effective oversight.
• Provide constructive feedback to the technical staff during all phases of the software lifecycle to keep development priorities aligned with business needs.
• Take ownership and drive end-to-end quality software development processes.

The minimum we’re looking for:

• 2-4 years of software development experience.
• Proficiency in JavaScript.
• Proven experience working with frontend frameworks such as Vue.js/React/Angular (or similar) and related tools and libraries.
• Ability to take complex designs from Figma and convert to corresponding HTML/CSS/JS code.
• Experience/knowledge of Agile methodologies like SCRUM/Kanban.
• Knowledge of SOLID principles.
• Knowledge of clean code practices.
• Ability to work with complex enterprise software architectures.
• Excellent communication and collaboration skills with a proven ability to work effectively in a team environment.

Work model: This position is intended to be largely in-office with a focus on flexibility. Today, most of the global team is on a hybrid model ranging between 3-4 days in the office per week. We aim to find an inclusive balance between everyone’s personal lives and responsibilities and the value created from in-office collaboration.

We believe that sharing the same physical space with our colleagues creates a level of trust and understanding that fosters innovation and a sense of purpose. The socializing and relationships formed from these in-person interactions have created the bonds that make our team successful.

We not only want to encourage people to safely spend time in the office, but also schedule regular travel between our offices in Europe and the US – and a regular conference where the entire worldwide team is gathered together.
