Job Description

Senior React Developer -  Location: Remote (UK-based). Must have Commercial experience building production web applications with React

About Us

We’re on a mission to empower ambitious, growing businesses with the funding they need to succeed. By combining a diverse suite of financial services with deep expertise, we go beyond capital to provide the support founders need to scale, on the right terms, with the right guidance.

Our Platform & Team

We’re a modern finance company with a proprietary web-based platform built in-house to manage lending operations. The platform is developed using:

  • Backend: .NET (C#)
  • Frontend: React + TypeScript, Material UI
  • Infrastructure: Hosted on AWS
  • Other Tools: GraphQL, GitLab CI/CD, DataDog

As we transition from a fully offshore model to a hybrid setup, we’re building a small, senior UK-based team to take ownership of delivery, technical direction, and quality.

We operate in a regulated space where data integrity, security, and auditability are essential, but we keep processes lightweight and delivery-focused.

What the Senior React Developer will be doing

  • Building responsive, accessible UIs with React and Material UI
  • Developing reusable components and maintaining design consistency
  • Integrating with GraphQL APIs for efficient data management
  • Ensuring cross-browser compatibility and accessibility standards
  • Writing clean, well-tested code and taking part in code reviews
  • Collaborating with backend engineers and offshore teams
  • Maintaining and modernising existing interfaces
  • Ensuring work meets compliance, documentation, and security standards

This is a frontend-focused role, but if you're keen to go full-stack, there's room to grow.

Our Tech Stack

  • Frontend: React, TypeScript, Material UI
  • API: GraphQL (some REST)
  • Tooling: GitLab, Jira, Confluence, DataDog
  • Backend (maintained by others): .NET (C#)

What We’re Looking For

  • Strong experience building production-grade React applications
  • Proficient with TypeScript and modern JavaScript best practices
  • Experience using Material UI or similar component libraries
  • Skilled in GraphQL or REST API integration
  • Understanding of component-based architecture and state management
  • Comfortable working in a remote-first environment
  • Effective communicator, particularly with distributed teams
  • Familiar with Git workflows and CI/CD processes
  • Knowledge of web accessibility and security best practices
  • Experience with frontend testing and performance monitoring

Bonus: Background in finance or working with complex data-driven UIs

Why This Role Matters

You'll join a small, senior team shaping the future of our product's user experience. It’s about thoughtful, reliable design — not flashy features — in a regulated industry where robustness and maintainability matter.

What We Offer

  • Competitive salary + discretionary bonus
  • 25 days’ holiday + bank holidays + your birthday off
  • Royal London pension scheme
  • Private healthcare (Vitality) for you and your dependents
  • Enhanced maternity/paternity policies
  • Death in service cover
  • Cycle to Work & Techscheme
  • Financial, physical & mental wellbeing support
  • Casual dress & regular team events
  • Paid volunteer time
  • Inclusive and supportive work environment

Please confirm the following in your application:

  • What is your current notice period?
  • Are you UK-based with full right to work?

We’re committed to creating an inclusive environment where everyone can thrive. If you need reasonable adjustments during the recruitment process, please let us know — we’ll do everything we can to support you.
