The role: We're looking for a mid-level front-end developer to join our team and take ownership of the user-facing side of our web applications. Your day-to-day will centre on building polished, responsive, accessible interfaces in Vue.js and TypeScript - turning designs into fast, intuitive experiences that users enjoy. While the role skews front-end, our applications are built on a Laravel back end, so you'll need enough PHP ability to work across the boundary: consuming and occasionally extending APIs, understanding the data behind the interface, and making small back-end changes when a feature calls for it. This is a hands-on role suited to someone with a few years of commercial experience who is confident working independently, cares about the details of a good user interface, and writes clean, well-tested code.
Requirements
- Relational databases (MySQL or PostgreSQL)
- Strong HTML and CSS, including responsive layouts and cross-browser compatibility
- Working knowledge of PHP and Laravel - comfortable reading the codebase, consuming and tweaking APIs, and making modest back-end changes
- Confident with Git and collaborative workflows (branching, pull requests, code review)
- An eye for detail and genuine care about user experience
- Clear communicator who can explain technical decisions and work well within a team
Desirable
- Python experience, particularly building APIs with FastAPI
- Geospatial experience - a real bonus, whether in Python (GeoPandas, Shapely, rasterio, PostGIS) or on the web (Leaflet, Mapbox GL / MapLibre, OpenLayers, Turf.js, or working with GeoJSON and map tiles)
- Experience building with LLM agent SDKs and APIs - OpenAI, Anthropic, or similar (function/tool calling, agent frameworks, or integrating AI features into products)
- Deeper Laravel experience (Eloquent, queues, testing)
- Experience with front-end testing (Vitest, Testing Library, Cypress, or Playwright)
- Familiarity with build tooling (Vite, Webpack) and CI/CD pipelines
- Exposure to Tailwind CSS, Inertia.js, Nuxt, or similar tools in the Vue/Laravel ecosystem
- Experience working closely with designers, or familiarity with Figma
Company Behaviours
- Take Ownership of tasks and do what you say you will do
- Operate with integrity and honesty, being proud of what you do
- Communicate regularly on progress of projects and tasks
- Strive to innovate, learn and develop, both personally and professionally
- Have fun, creating a positive environment and being a motivating influence
- Respect others, treating them as they would like to be treated
