Job description

Website Developer (Freelance, Remote)

Overview

We are seeking experienced developers to join our small team. Our platform, developed over 10+ years, is constantly evolving and features a mix of modern and legacy codebases and frameworks. The website encompasses far more than just the customer-facing store; it includes internally built systems for:

• CRM, order management, and payments.
• Dynamic pricing modeling factory processes.
• Stock control, order processing, logistics, and proof-of-delivery.
• A support chatbot and support ticketing system.

Languages and Platforms

We require an experienced developer to build new features utilizing TypeScript and Vue.js, alongside native ES6 JavaScript. Our backend REST API is built on PHP 8.3, leveraging utility classes, namespacing, and strict return types. While we ideally seek a developer capable of working across both frontend and backend (Full-Stack), we are open to candidates specializing strictly in one area, depending on experience.

Legacy Support

Given the project's longevity, the role involves maintaining and replacing legacy code. This includes supporting older frontend modules built in AngularJS or ES5-style JavaScript with jQuery, and older PHP code, while simultaneously building new features.

Location and Language

This is primarily a remote working role. While we are based in the UK (Saffron Walden, Essex), and occasional travel there is preferred (up to 25%), we are open to candidates based across Europe based on ability and experience. Excellent communication skills in English are required.

Code Test

Candidates will be asked to complete two small test features, supplying code and discussing their approach during a follow-up call.
