Mid / Senior Frontend or Full-stack Engineer (JavaScript / TypeScript)
Zoopla, United Kingdom
Job Description
Join Zoopla, and help us digitise the entire home-owning and buying experience!
At Zoopla we want to help everyone make intelligent home buying decisions.
Our salaries and bonuses are competitive, and our exceptional employee benefits are rated 4.4/5 on review sites.
We’re on a journey to scale Zoopla Engineering.
The consumer portal experience at Zoopla is a unique opportunity to work on creating a high performance website that is easy to contribute to and easy to deploy multiple times a day. If you enjoy being in a commercially driven organisation, core web vitals, developer experience, personalisation at the edge, or creating delightful UIs with the latest CSS, we have something for you.
While we have a diverse set of technologies and services running here at Zoopla, we don't expect you to know all of them and would love to hear from you if you have experience in just a few of them.
On the frontend you’ll work with React, Nx ,Vercel and TypeScript. On the backend it's mainly Node.js, Next.js, and GraphQL, all written in TypeScript as well. Our data stores include both SQL and NoSQL, and you’ll be guided by our data and Core Infra/Platform teams as you work with AWS, GitHub/GitLab, CI, and increasingly with serverless technologies.
Opportunities to flex your skills across the various layers of the stack are optional for the role. If you’re interested in full-stack development, we’re happy to support you.
What we’re looking for in Zoopla Engineers:
- You’re working on your engineering craft, and you practise writing maintainable code, reviewing code, pair programming at times, and writing tests.
- You’re commercially driven, resilient, and able to respond to changes without missing a beat.
- You’re passionate about building products to delight users, while also paying attention to building products that are stable, scalable, secure, observable, and performant.
- You’ll have worked with some type of cloud tech, though we’ll make sure you're supported by our SRE folks when you need to flex across the whole stack. Experience in AWS would be a plus, but we’re open to all that are happy to work in a place where engineers have a DevOps mentality.
- We look for new teammates that have exhibited some or all of our Zoopla behaviours - such as ‘Own It,’ ‘Be the Change’, and ‘Set the Bar Higher.’
You’ll work in a high paced, agile engineering team, alongside data analytics, product, design, and delivery. With this experience and support, you’ll be empowered to work autonomously to define and deliver on ambitious goals.
We take diversity and inclusion seriously, and to succeed here, you should too! All qualified applicants will be considered, without regard to race, colour, nationality, religion, sexual orientation, gender, gender identity, age, disability, health, qualifications, or time unemployed.
