Software Development Engineer (Front-End)

Ship real product

Quality without drama

Ownership that grows with you

The Role

You’ve moved beyond tutorials and junior guidance.

You’ve shipped features and debugged production issues.

Now you’re ready for more ownership — and more impact.

We’re hiring an Intermediate Software Engineer ( Role split: 70% Front-end + 30% Back-end) who can take meaningful pieces of product, build them well, and ship them confidently in a collaborative, high-trust environment.

You’ll be responsible for delivering business value by designing and developing high-quality software in a highly collaborative environment. You’ll report to a Senior member of the Engineering team, and be trusted to self-manage your day-to-day work.

You will sit in that critical middle layer of engineering — capable, accountable, and growing into senior-level thinking.

The Work

You’ll spend your time building, improving, and collaborating.

Design & Development

Develop clean, efficient, scalable software - React, C#.NET

Build tools and applications that ship regularly into production

Contribute to solution design, algorithms, and feature architecture

Automate repetitive tasks using scripting and tooling

Architect and build moderately complex software solutions

You won’t just implement requirements — you’ll shape solutions.

Quality & Ownership

Review and debug code (yours and others’)

Perform validation and verification testing

Identify risks and problems early

Suggest improvements to design and approach

Participate in on-call support (shared responsibility for reliability)

You’ll take initiative. If something needs fixing, you fix it — or you raise it.

• Collaboration
• You’ll work closely with Product Managers, UX & Design, QA, Site Reliability Engineering and our Engineering Leaders and Tech Leads. You’ll communicate progress, blockers, and risks clearly, in both technical and business-impact terms.

Our Tech Stack

Build high-throughput services in .NET 8 (microservices) and REACT alongside a battle-tested .NET Framework 4.8 monolith processing billions in giving ( Role split: 70% Front-end + 30% Back-end)

Own microservices that solve real business problems, think payments, communications, third-party integrations etc.

Solve real scale and data integrity challenges in a secure multi-tenant architecture serving thousands of churches.

Deliver production-ready software with strong CI/CD, AWS infrastructure, and deep operational telemetry.

Grow your skills through hands-on migration work—modernising legacy code while keeping production humming.

Why you should care

Intermediate engineers are the engine room of great product teams. They turn intent into impact.

You’ll:

See your work used by real customers

Influence feature design early

Grow toward senior-level impact

Help shape engineering culture

Work in an environment where quality actually matters

• This is a role for someone who wants to become exceptional, not just comfortable.
• If you’re someone who:

Has 3+ years building multi-user web/mobile/cloud products in REACT

Cares deeply about user experience

Thinks in scalable systems, not short-term hacks

Self-manages tasks, time, and expectations

Brings new ideas from industry trends

Shares knowledge generously

Talks about outcomes, not just output

If you care about clean systems, strong collaboration, and shipping software that makes a difference, let’s talk!
