We’re looking to give you trust, support, and enable you to have pride in the quality of your work.

And learn more about our ethos
About You
We’re looking for a front-end developer with a clear passion for UX and UI: someone who can bring their own vision, drive and experience to our work and process. We believe that great products are created through the intersection of engineering and design. When both sides share the same goals, ethos and beliefs, and can work together as one.
From an experience perspective, you’ll have a background in front-end development and/or any of the following: UI Design, User Experience Design, Physical Product Design, UI Engineering, Creative Engineering or Prototyping and a drive to become a world-class UX Product Developer. A blend of the above skills is a big advantage.
From a technical skills perspective you’ll ideally have worked with the following platforms, frameworks and design patterns.
- Node.js, Browserify and NPM
- Webpack / Gulp / Grunt
- postCSS / SCSS
- Jade or similar for templating
- Greensock or similar animation libraries
- BEM or similar
About us
We are small, focused human interface company with a horizontal hierarchy (we’re all on the same level, and you’ll be joining us as a peer). We love to create enjoyable, simple and elegant software through a design led, collaborative, and user-test driven process. Every team member has a deep understanding of our media (Web & Mobile) from both a technical and human perspective, and each of us love finding better ways to bring delight and simplicity to people’s lives. Thanks to glowing referrals from our clients, we’re now expanding to take on new challenges – which is where you come in.
What we’d like to see from you:
You have example projects and/or a codepen account demonstrating your technical and designer engineering skills.
You enjoy being part of creative workshops, and can think about solving problems right from the conceptual stage.
You have a great, demonstrable flair for creating usable, beautiful interfaces and prototypes, driven by an understanding of user needs and engineering acumen.
You have great attention to detail.
You know how to visualise responsive websites and applications & the thought process required.
You’re comfortable thinking and sketching fast on paper and throwing ideas away.
You’re a collaborator.
You can think in interaction and create prototypes to test with users.
Your coding ability in CSS, HTML and JS are a passion, you’re constantly learning new techniques and looking to apply them.
What we offer
You’ll be offered a competitive salary based on your experience, we’ll set goals together and will review your success towards these every month. We want you to grow with us.
To help you grow, we’ll give you £1000/year as a personal development budget. Use this to book yourself into conferences, meetups, training, or take some time away to meditate in a field! It’s up to you.
We offer a creative, inspirational environment with an awesome office, surrounded by young, highly motivated individuals.
You’ll have 10% of your time to work on a project of your choice, one day every 2 weeks.
You’ll be given real responsibility, and honoured as an equal amongst the team.
You will be working in our team, and with our smashing clients. This is a full time role based in our office in Old Street, London UK.
