Web Developer

This is a hands-on web development role in a small, experienced team. You will work across the whole stack rather than a single slice of a feature, with real ownership of the work you deliver and support from the Digital Technical Manager as you grow into it. Decisions you make affect a live platform with real commercial consequence, including through the Christmas peak trading period. You will work closely with the Digital Technical Manager and external partners, helping translate business requirements into well-defined technical work and shipping it across the full stack. The platform runs on React and TypeScript on the frontend, with a Medusa Cloud v2 (Node.js, PostgreSQL, Redis) backend, hosted on AWS (CloudFront, Elastic Beanstalk, S3). It integrates with Contentful, Algolia, Klaviyo, Stripe, PayPal, Apple Pay, Google Pay, server-side Google Tag Manager and Microsoft Dynamics AX, with New Relic for observability and GitHub Actions for CI/CD.
