Summary :

You will join us at an exciting time as we focus increasingly on cloud/SaaS solutions, upgrading existing products to new technologies and modern UX, as well as developing brand-new applications.

As a Front End web development lead, you will be working across multiple flexible agile squads delivering value on multiple greenfield workstreams in the delivery family. You will play a key role in designing and creating new features and enhancing existing code, whilst ensuring the foundational components continue to meet high levels of reliability, maintainability, usability, and performance.

At WTW, we believe difference makes us stronger.

  • Implement test-related code (unit tests, test frameworks and associated automated test cases).
  • Review and debug code to identify defects, performance bottlenecks or technical debt.
  • Participate in Agile/scrum ceremonies (sprint planning, stand-ups, retrospectives), striving to continuously improve the team velocity, its processes and engineering practices.
  • Operate to a high standard and support/mentor other UI developers so they're delivering at this level
  • Address UI governance requirements that cover areas of security, accessibility etc

The Requirements:

  • The technology stack is primarily Angular, C#, and Azure along with other suitable technologies guided by our internal tech radar. We are looking for web developers with particularly strong Front End skills to complement our existing teams, hence candidates will need to demonstrate:
  • Proficiency in the design and development of responsive single-page/progressive web applications using JavaScript/TypeScript/HTML/CSS (Angular, React, Vue, Bootstrap). Strong emphasis on Angular as the adopted Front End technology
  • Strong appreciation of UX principles, ability to iterate commercial-quality GUI implementations working from wireframes/mockups and other assets produced by UX designers.
  • Experience developing test frameworks/test cases for web UI's and RESTful services (eg using Selenium and SpecFlow).
  • Experience with the Agile/Scrum development life cycle in a commercial/production environment. Experience with software engineering best practices: object-oriented, design patterns, SOLID principles.
  • Experience with software development ecosystem (IDE's, version control, test automation/CI, etc.).
  • Experience with CI/CD deployment processes, with a particular focus on developing and support YAML-based deployments
  • Strong team player with an adaptable mindset, eager to learn and champion modern approaches and technologies where appropriate

Other highly desirable, but not essential skills are:

  • Ability to architect high-performance and scalable web application and supporting infrastructures.
  • Ability to coordinate day-to-day development and bug fixing activities.
  • Experience in guiding teams in UX strategy, implementations, and reviews.
