Front End Developer - Fareham

In this role, I will need you to architect and develop robust, high-performance browser extensions using TypeScript, React, and modern frontend tooling. You will clarify and solve ambiguous problems by identifying key requirements, breaking them down into manageable, testable components, and delivering well-engineered solutions. Assessing and integrating third-party tools and libraries will be part of your responsibilities, making strategic decisions to balance trade-offs effectively. You will drive performance optimizations by eliminating bottlenecks, enhancing UI responsiveness, reducing load times, and streamlining event handling. It will also be important for you to quickly understand and debug unfamiliar code, using reverse engineering when necessary to analyze other extensions and diagnose issues. Additionally, I expect you to provide technical representation in cross-functional discussions, advising on feasibility, architectural considerations, and key trade-offs to guide smart product decisions. Building privacy-first features while prioritizing secure handling, storage, and transmission of sensitive data will be crucial. Staying vigilant to security threats, applying fundamental browser security principles, and advocating for secure coding practices will be part of your role. Furthermore, you will improve test coverage for internal npm packages by writing unit and integration tests, driving modularity, maintainability, and shaping our automated testing strategy.
