The Role
We're looking for a Frontend Developer to work across our UK government clients, designing, building and improving user-centred, high-volume digital services.
You'll work with designers, user researchers and engineers to deliver accessible, well-engineered frontends. That includes building and growing the design systems and reusable components that help teams deliver consistently and quickly.
Key Responsibilities
● Build and maintain user-centred frontends, design systems and component libraries using Angular, React and TypeScript, integrating with APIs and .NET Core microservices.
● Work with designers in Figma to turn designs into reusable components, and set the frontend standards others follow.
● Make sure services meet the Service Standard, WCAG 2.2 AA and secure-by-design principles, including auditing and fixing accessibility issues.
● Help delivery teams adopt the design system through clear documentation, guidance and hands-on support.
● Build and maintain automated build and test pipelines in Azure DevOps, including automated and DAST security testing.
● Work in blended, multi-supplier agile teams, contributing to service assessments, code reviews and coaching.
What We're Looking For
Essential:
● BPSS clearance (or the ability to obtain it).
● Proven experience building design systems and component libraries.
● Deep expertise in JavaScript, TypeScript, Angular, React, HTML and CSS.
● Accessibility expertise, including auditing and remediating to WCAG 2.2 AA.
● Working knowledge of Figma, particularly Dev Mode.
● Experience calling APIs and working with RESTful microservices.
● Hands-on experience with Azure DevOps YAML pipelines, automated testing (for example Jest, Cypress or Playwright) and DAST tools.
● Experience delivering services to the Service Standard in complex government environments.
● A clear communicator, able to explain technical progress to any audience.
Desirable:
● Experience with the GOV.UK Design System or a departmental design system.
● Familiarity with legacy .NET and migrating away from legacy systems.
● Experience integrating with GOV.UK One Login, Pay or Notify.
● Familiarity with Azure serverless, infrastructure as code (for example Terraform or Bicep) and observability.
