What Makes This Role Different

  • Join at the foundation stage of building a cutting-edge headless e-commerce platform.
  • Directly influence the digital transformation of a multi-million-pound brand.
  • Experience no bureaucracy - small team, big impact, direct access to leadership.

Key Responsibilities

  • Build serverless Lambda functions and API gateways using TypeScript/Node.js.
  • Work on AWS infrastructure with Terraform.
  • Develop a macroservice architecture and foundation services for authentication and checkout.

What’s In It For You

  • Competitive salary (~£50k) with performance bonuses.
  • Fully remote role with flexibility.
  • Health insurance and generous holiday allowances.
  • Opportunities for career growth into senior positions or exploring DevOps/full-stack pathways.

Who We're Looking For

Our ideal teammate has:

  • 3+ years working with JavaScript/TypeScript/Node.js.
  • Experience with AWS services and a passion for well-structured code.
  • Knowledge of serverless architectures and ideally exposure to e-commerce platforms.
