About the Role

As a Frontend Developer, you'll work on the frontend of an established recruitment platform, covering the ATS, careers sites and job board used every day by schools, trusts and candidates. This is a live product with real traffic rather than a new build.

A significant part of the platform currently runs on AngularJS and is being migrated to Angular 21. You'll work across both sides of this transition: maintaining the existing AngularJS application, translating it into the new stack and developing new Angular 21 features.

You'll also have a real say in the direction of the frontend, contributing to engineering decisions around performance, staged delivery and keeping the live platform stable throughout the migration.

• Maintain and support the existing AngularJS codebase while it remains live


• Translate AngularJS components and features into Angular 21 in stages, without breaking what is in production


• Build new features in Angular 21, using standalone components, signals for state, OnPush and sensible boundaries within the Nx monorepo


• Turn business requirements into technical work, breaking features down, providing estimates and raising problems early rather than at the end of a sprint


• Work in sprints and keep tickets up to date so the team has clear visibility of progress


• Review pull requests and have your own pull requests reviewed


• Keep track of Angular's direction and identify when new developments are worth adopting

• 3+ years of overall professional experience


• Strong AngularJS skills, with the confidence to read, maintain and rewrite a live AngularJS codebase


• 2+ years of experience building and shipping Angular applications using Angular 20 or above


• Strong TypeScript skills


• Strong knowledge of modern Angular, including standalone components, signals, the new control flow syntax and RxJS where it is the right tool


• Experience with Git and CI/CD pipelines


• Ability to prioritise your own work without being chased


• Clear written and verbal communication skills

• Previous experience migrating a legacy frontend to a modern framework


• Experience with Nx monorepos, PrimeNG, Angular Material and Vitest


• Experience with C#, .NET Core, ASP.NET MVC, Web API and Entity Framework


• SQL Server experience, with the ability to read and write a good query


• Experience with IIS and Windows Server


• Experience with Bitbucket, JIRA, TeamCity and Octopus Deploy

• Fixed Shifts — 12:00 PM – 9:30 PM IST (Summer) | 1:00 PM – 10:30 PM IST (Winter)


• No Weekend Work — Real work-life balance, not just words


• Day 1 Benefits — Laptop and full medical insurance provided


• Support That Matters — Mentorship, community, and forums where ideas are shared


• True Belonging — A long-term home where your contributions are valued
