About the role

  • Establish robust tracking and analytics infrastructure that powers data-driven decision making across the business.
  • Develop rapid experiments and A/B tests to validate hypotheses and optimise conversion funnels.
  • Partner with Marketing and Product on campaign experiences, and performance marketing requirements.
  • Own technical SEO—improving site structure, Core Web Vitals, and search visibility.
  • Build full customer-facing experiences and potentially standalone applications.
  • Own digital delivery end-to-end: from concept and experimentation, through architecture and execution, to launch and optimisation.
  • Champion a culture of experimentation, curiosity, and continuous learning.
  • Develop and mentor developers at all levels, building a high-performing team with strong digital and growth engineering skills.
  • Be the bridge between Engineering, Product, Marketing, and Data—translating business goals into technical solutions.

Requirements

  • 7+ years' experience in front-end or full-stack development, with 2+ years in a lead or senior technical role.
  • Deep expertise in modern JavaScript/TypeScript and front-end frameworks (React, Next.js, Vue, or similar), with strong HTML, CSS/SCSS foundations.
  • Proven experience integrating with RESTful APIs, working with backend engineers, and connecting third-party platforms (e.g., payment providers, CRM, marketing tools).
  • Hands-on experience with analytics and tag management (GA4, GTM, Segment, Mixpanel, or similar), including conversion tracking and pixel implementation.
  • Solid understanding of A/B testing, experimentation platforms, and a data-driven approach to optimising conversion funnels.
  • Strong grasp of technical SEO and web performance optimisation.
  • Experience mentoring developers, leading technical discussions, and raising engineering standards across a team.
  • Comfortable with Agile practices, Git, CI/CD pipelines, and cloud platforms (Azure preferred).
  • Excellent communicator who can bridge technical and non-technical stakeholders across Tech, Marketing, Product, and Data.
  • Bonus: experience with Webflow, headless CMS, server-side rendering (SSR/SSG), or a background in growth engineering.
