Senior Full-Stack Developer (Frontend Focus)

We’re looking for a senior full-stack developer with a strong frontend focus, who deeply cares about details, performance, and user experience (UX). You’ll help us build applications that remain fast, consistent, and reliable—even when backend systems misbehave.

This role is perfect if you treat UX as core engineering quality: thoughtful loading states, resilient error handling, predictable behavior, and a system-level mindset about frontend-backend interaction.

You’ll work across the stack (TypeScript, React, PostgreSQL), but your strength is crafting robust, snappy, and user-friendly interfaces backed by clean, reliable data flows.

What You’ll Do

  • Design and build high-quality React applications with TypeScript.
  • Create UIs that are:
    • fast
    • responsive
    • consistent under real-world conditions
  • Ensure the frontend behaves gracefully under failure (timeouts, partial data, offline states, race conditions, etc.).
  • Build and maintain reliable:
    • APIs
    • database interactions (PostgreSQL)
  • Optimize perceived performance via:
    • caching strategies
    • optimistic updates
    • skeleton/loading states
    • rendering efficiency
  • Establish and maintain systematic UX patterns across the product.
  • Collaborate closely with:
    • product teams
    • design engineers
    • backend engineers to ship feature changes end-to-end.
  • Improve developer experience (DX) with:
    • shared components
    • linting, testing, and documentation
  • Help define and enforce standards for:
    • consistency
    • observability
    • reliability across the stack

Reasons to use Rodeo

I’m in my final year doing Economics and I don’t know whether to apply for grad schemes now or do a masters first. What do you think?

Honest answer — it depends on where you want to end up. A lot of top grad schemes (Big 4, civil service, banking) don’t need a masters. Let’s look at the ones you’d be competitive for now, and we can decide if a masters actually adds anything.

Also worth knowing: most autumn 2026 applications are open now. Timing matters more than you think.

Start with a chat, not a search bar

Grad scheme, placement, apprenticeship? Not sure what you want yet — that's fine. Your agent talks it through with you and turns "I have no idea" into a shortlist.
