Chester Full-Time No home office possible
Oxbury Bank Plc

Join our Online Banking team as we build the next generation of digital banking experiences for Britain\’s agricultural sector. You\’ll be working across our full stack—from crafting intuitive React interfaces to building robust APIs—while helping shape a platform that makes a real difference to farmers and rural businesses.

We\’re evolving our technology stack and moving towards modern frameworks and architectures. This means you\’ll have the opportunity to work with established systems while building new features using current best practices. If you enjoy solving real problems with clean code and want to see the direct impact of your work, this role offers exactly that.

Role Responsibilities:

  • Build responsive, accessible user interfaces using React and TypeScript that make complex banking operations feel simple.
  • Develop secure, well-documented APIs that power both our internal applications and third-party integrations.
  • Work across the full stack—you\’ll be equally comfortable writing SQL queries, building REST endpoints, and crafting React components, while gaining hands‑on experience with AWS and cloud‑native architectures as part of our deployment and infrastructure work.
  • Mentor junior developers and contribute to code reviews that elevate the whole team\’s work.
  • Participate in technical design discussions and help make architectural decisions that shape our platform.
  • Write testable, maintainable code with comprehensive test coverage.
  • Collaborate with designers, product managers, and business analysts to turn ideas into production‑ready features.
  • Support and improve our existing applications while building new services.

Required Skills / Experience:

  • Solid React/ReactJS knowledge with a good understanding of hooks, component lifecycle, and state management.
  • Experience with SQL databases and writing efficient queries.
  • Proficiency with Git and collaborative development workflows.
  • Understanding of object‑oriented programming principles and design patterns.
  • Commitment to writing comprehensive automated tests and following secure development practices.
  • Experience with Next.js (our preferred framework), though we\’d also welcome experience with alternatives like Remix, Astro, or Nuxt if the rest of your experience is strong.
  • Familiarity with Tanstack (we use this in our newer interfaces), or willingness to learn.
  • Experience with CSS preprocessors like SCSS or utility frameworks like Tailwind (at least one of these is highly desirable).
  • Experience with backend frameworks such as NestJS (which we use extensively), ExpressJS, or Fastify. We are also open to equivalents from other ecosystems that demonstrate an understanding of RESTful API design principles—such as ASP.NET/C#, Laravel, Symfony, Django, Ruby on Rails, etc.
  • Knowledge of Bash scripting and Linux environments.
  • Experience with NoSQL databases and caching strategies.
  • AWS or other cloud platform experience (you\’ll develop this further in the role).
  • Exposure to other modern frameworks like Vue.js or Angular (while React is essential, experience with these demonstrates broader ecosystem knowledge and is a positive indicator).
  • Financial services sector experience (though we\’re happy to teach you about agriculture and banking!)

Alongside this we can offer you:

  • A very competitive salary with an excellent benefits package.
  • 25 days holiday, plus 8 days bank holiday (this increases with service).
  • Oxbury Bonus scheme.
  • Free Personal Training session every week.
  • Private Medical Healthcare.
  • Employee Assistance Programme.
  • Life Insurance.
  • Enhanced maternity/paternity leave.

Please note that we do not offer sponsorship with this role.
