Senior Full stack Engineer
Vauxhall, London
Hybrid - 3 days in the office, 2 days remote

As Zapp enters its next stage of growth, we seek a Full Stack Engineer to sit on our 'Operations Technology' team, which owns vital services that power our critical frontline operations. They ensure smooth operations between our suppliers, distribution centres, Zapp stores and our end-customers.

• Work closely with our designer and product manager to propose and build the next generation of our operational tooling
• Work closely with internal/external teams who rely on the data we own/produce data we need.
• Become a domain expert in our DC/store/supplier operations
• Increase the quality of the commits pushed to production.
• Collaborate and work closely with your manager to grow and maintain a mature team of engineers.
• Define critical KPIs to monitor and review performance.
• Be the voice of Engineering in quarterly and annual planning.
• Work with cross-functional teams to understand business requirements and convey them into technical solutions.
• Stay updated on emerging technologies and best practices in backend/frontend development
• Ensure the reliability, security, and performance of front-end systems through thorough testing and optimisation.
