Full Stack Senior Web Developer in Sheffield

At 93FT, we design and deliver digital solutions that bring brands to life. We are seeking a Full Stack Senior Web Developer to join our Sheffield-based studio, where design and technology meet to create measurable impact. Our projects span hospitality, sport, retail, property, and food & drink — combining strong technical foundations with high-quality design.

As Senior Developer, you'll take the lead on architecting, developing, and optimising digital solutions that push performance and user experience forward. We're looking for someone who can demonstrate their experience in developing visually engaging, high quality websites, and who has ideally worked within a design agency or similar environment. You'll be confident taking ownership of technical direction, guiding projects from initial scoping through to deployment. You'll love writing clean, scalable, and maintainable code across modern frameworks, working closely with our designers to ensure delivery aligns seamlessly with the creative vision and technical excellence.

If you are an experienced developer ready to bring technical leadership, precision, and innovation to high-profile projects, we would love to hear from you.

Who we are

We're a multidisciplinary design studio in Sheffield with architecture, interiors, digital and brand all under one roof. We work in a building with character — an 1889 steel and iron merchant's warehouse, now our creative hub. Our neighbourhood, Kelham Island, was voted one of the UK's coolest by Time Out for a reason. Independent bakeries. Breweries. Coffee shops. A community vibe. We're part of it — and we think you'll love it here.

Our Digital team works across a wide range of client projects - from custom websites to tailored e-commerce solutions. We value clean code, great UX, and a collaborative approach to development.

For context, we are looking to grow the Digital team and are currently looking for two Digital hires — a Senior Developer and a Junior Developer. The business has a growing pipeline of digital projects with clients across the UK and in the US. This means you will be taking a lead on the technical development of a wide range of digital projects.
