Reigate, United Kingdom Willis Towers Watson Full time

Summary :

We are looking for an experienced Front End web developer to join our growing engineering organization (headquartered in Reigate, ~300 engineers) developing a wide range of market leading InsurTech solutions. 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. We want our workforce to reflect the different and varied markets we operate in and to build a culture of inclusivity that makes colleagues feel welcome, valued and empowered to bring their whole selves to work every day. We are an equal opportunity employer committed to fostering an inclusive work environment throughout our organisation. We embrace all types of diversity.

The Role:

  • Bring expertise and best practice having worked on professional web applications.
  • Work with the Product Manager and/or Product Owner to define, refine and deliver the product backlog.
  • Design SaaS software solutions meeting functional and non-functional requirements.
  • Coordinate web application design and implementation across multiple streams to ensure consistency of approach.
  • Participate in the UX guild and the development teams on best practice and approach.
  • Implement product code, following best practices for maintainability, testability, and performance.
  • 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.
  • Experience using VS Code, Azure DevOps and Git.
  • Experience with Azure Experience with Cypress and other unit testing tools.
  • General knowledge of the Insurance Industry.
  • Degree-educated with Computer Science, Engineering, Mathematics or relevant discipline.

At WTW, we trust you to know your work and the people, tools and environment you need to be successful. The majority of our colleagues work in a hybrid style, with a mix of remote, in-person and in-office interactions dependent on the needs of the team, role and clients. Our flexibility is rooted in trust and hybrid is not a one-size-fits-all solution.
