Bede builds market-leading gambling entertainment experiences, and great front-end engineering plays a huge part in how our products feel, perform and scale.
We’re looking for a Front-end leaning Software Engineer to join our Experience Tribe in Newcastle.

- Working closely with Product and other engineers to ensure designs are technically feasible and well-implemented
- Optimising applications for performance, responsiveness and scalability
- Contributing to documentation and shared knowledge, helping the whole team move faster
- Taking part in Scrum ceremonies and collaborating openly within your team
- Reviewing code, sharing feedback and supporting high engineering standards
- Debugging and problem-solving across frontend applications
