As a Lead Full Stack Developer in the IP Development team, you will take end-to-end ownership of technical delivery within your squad, ensuring high-quality, scalable solutions that align with both product goals and engineering standards. You will play a key role in architectural, tooling, and implementation decisions, working closely with the Principal Developer, other Lead Developers, and Engineering Managers to ensure your squad’s work contributes to a consistent and scalable wider strategy. You’ll also collaborate with Product Managers, UX Designers, and Business Analysts to turn complex requirements into robust, maintainable software, while fostering a culture of learning by mentoring developers and driving continuous improvement.

Our core technology stack is built with TypeScript, using React on the front end and NestJS on the back end, with services deployed via containers to Microsoft Azure. Experience with AI technologies—both in leveraging AI-assisted development tools and in building AI-powered features into business applications—is increasingly important.

• Lead and mentor your squad in full stack development, fostering technical excellence and continuous learning.
• Own technical delivery within your squad while collaborating with the Principal Developer, other Lead Developers, and Engineering Managers on architecture, tooling, and wider engineering strategy.
• Develop and maintain server-side logic and user-facing features, ensuring applications are high-quality, scalable, and secure.
• Work with Product Managers and UI/UX Designers to translate requirements into technical solutions that balance feasibility, user experience, and business value.
• Optimise applications for performance and scalability, identifying and implementing improvements.
