Flexys is hiring a senior front end developer adept with Angular, React, Vue.js or Ember.js. This is an opportunity to positively impact a suite of fintech applications, and to achieve the standards you dream of, soon becoming our lead on front end.

We're building highly responsive and scalable single page applications that manage debt more effectively and provide a sustainable and positive experience for consumers. We're growing our engineering team and building out our digital engagement platform, applying machine learning and other AI techniques through Agile approaches.

This is a coding oriented position, with aspects of technical mentoring - building integrated solutions using Angular which are customisable, well implemented and that scale.

As our most experienced front end developer, you will guide how we build and implement UIs for data users, administrators and consumers.

Importantly, you'll also be exposed to customers in order to understand their goals, and how their business and technology runs.

We're always open to new things and you can influence where we go and how we get there. At all times you'll have a lot of freedom in design, technology choice and influence over our approach.
