- Work closely with Product, Design, Backend, and other developers to turn requirements into solid technical solutions.
- Help shape and improve our frontend architecture and development practices.
- Make sure our applications are fast, responsive, accessible, and easy to maintain.
- Work with UI libraries and design systems to create consistent user experiences.

We’re particularly interested in people who enjoy working on things beyond traditional frontend development. We have upcoming projects involving 3D visualisation in the browser, so experience with Three.js, WebGL, or similar technologies would be a big plus. We also work with applications where maps and geospatial data play an important role. Experience with mapping libraries such as Mapbox, Leaflet, or OpenLayers is therefore very welcome.
