Full job description

Full-time, Permanent | Remote (UK)

Shortlister Solutions is scaling fast. We build interview and assessment technology that helps employers hire fairly and efficiently. Our platform supports high-stakes recruitment and admissions workflows, so usability, accessibility, performance, and reliability really matter.

We're looking for a Senior Front-End Developer with strong experience building modern web applications, ideally using Nuxt / Vue (or close equivalents), who wants to take ownership of the user-facing experience and grow towards a Technical Lead role over time.

This is a hands-on role with influence, well suited to someone who enjoys shaping how front-end systems are designed, built, and evolved, not just implementing UI tasks.

If you've worked in agency, consultancy, or contracting environments, you'll likely feel at home here: fast pace, varied problems, autonomy, and direct exposure to product and stakeholders.

Why this role is a strong step towards Technical Lead

This isn't just a "build screens" role. You'll:

Own meaningful parts of the front-end architecture and influence technical direction
Help shape delivery standards (code quality, performance, accessibility, testing, sensible automation)
Lead technical discovery for new user-facing features and improvements
Work closely with product and design to turn complex requirements into intuitive experiences
Mentor others and raise the bar for front-end engineering quality

As the team scales, this role naturally expands into formal technical leadership.

The role

You'll join our product and engineering team, working on a modern front-end application built with Nuxt that sits on top of our Django-powered API. You'll deliver new features, improve usability and performance, and help evolve our front-end architecture and development practices.

We have an ambition to leverage AI and automation to accelerate delivery and improve quality, but we use it pragmatically and selectively, only where it adds real value. You'll be trusted to make sound technical decisions, communicate trade-offs clearly, and take ownership of your work.

What you'll be responsible for

Front-End Delivery & Ownership

Design, build, and maintain user-facing features that support real customer outcomes

Own and evolve our Nuxt/Vue front-end, focusing on performance, maintainability, and developer experience

Build accessible, responsive, and intuitive interfaces that work across devices

Collaborate closely with back-end engineers to design clean, well-documented APIs

Maintain strong automated testing and contribute to a reliable CI/CD pipeline

Practical Automation and AI

Use modern tooling, including AI where appropriate, to reduce friction and improve quality, such as:

Rapid prototyping and UI iteration
Test generation and coverage improvements
Refactoring and component clean-up
Debugging support and PR review assistance
Keeping front-end documentation accurate and useful
Help establish repeatable, pragmatic ways of working that improve delivery speed without cutting corners

Leadership-Shaped Contribution

Lead technical discovery for front-end initiatives (approach, risks, trade-offs, estimates)

Propose and introduce patterns and best practices for component design, state management, and performance

Review PRs with a coaching mindset and consistently raise front-end quality

Support and mentor junior developers as the team grows

Become a trusted go-to person for front-end decisions and guidance

Product & Stakeholder Collaboration

Work closely with product, design, and commercial stakeholders to shape requirements into great user experiences

Communicate progress, constraints, and trade-offs clearly and early

Challenge assumptions constructively to ensure we build the right thing in the right way

What we're looking for

Must have

3 years' experience building modern front-end applications
Strong experience with Vue.js, ideally Nuxt, or equivalent frameworks (React with Next.js, SvelteKit, etc.)
Solid understanding of modern JavaScript and TypeScript
Strong grasp of HTML, CSS, and responsive design principles
Experience building accessible interfaces (WCAG awareness)
Proven track record of shipping reliable production front-end code
Comfortable working with APIs and asynchronous data flows
Clear communicator who enjoys working with non-technical stakeholders

Nice to have

Experience with Nuxt SSR, SSG, or hybrid rendering
Familiarity with front-end testing frameworks (e2e and component testing)
Experience with design systems or component libraries
Exposure to performance optimisation and monitoring
Prior agency, consultancy, or contractor experience

What success looks like in the first 6-12 months

You take ownership of key areas of the front end and ship improvements confidently
You improve the overall experience, not just features, but performance, accessibility, and consistency
You help evolve front-end patterns, tooling, and standards
You use automation and AI pragmatically to improve speed and quality
You're trusted by peers and stakeholders for your judgement and clarity
You naturally begin leading technical discovery and mentoring others

Benefits

Salary based on skills and experience
25 days holiday plus bank holidays
Fully remote / work from home
Visible impact in a fast-moving product team
Real runway towards technical leadership as we scale
Sale Bonus Plan: eligibility for a meaningful bonus linked to a future company sale
