Derivco is looking for a Front-End Developer (Level 2) to join our Software Engineering team and help deliver reliable, well-architected, user-facing software features across our regulated iGaming environment. In this role, you'll take end-to-end ownership of feature delivery — from UI design and implementation through to testing, deployment, and post-release stability — while actively leveraging AI-assisted development tools to accelerate your work without compromising on quality, security, or compliance.
This is a great opportunity for a developer who wants to sharpen their technical craft, deepen their understanding of AI-augmented engineering, and grow within a high-care, high-accountability engineering culture.
What You'll Do
Design and implement front-end features end-to-end — building responsive, accessible, and performant user interfaces — using CI/CD pipelines and automated testing frameworks, delivering solutions that meet product requirements and engineering standards.
Translate UI/UX designs and product requirements into clean, maintainable front-end code, working closely with design and product stakeholders.
Leverage AI-assisted development tools to accelerate delivery and improve code quality — critically evaluating all tool-generated code for correctness, security, and compliance before it reaches production.
Own the full quality of your work, including unit, integration, and exploratory testing across browsers/devices, and monitor post-deployment behaviour to maintain UI stability and performance.
Review code submitted by teammates, providing constructive feedback (including on AI-generated solutions) to uphold team quality standards and support the growth of junior developers.
Investigate and resolve defects, performance issues, and system anomalies within agreed response timelines, contributing to production operational resilience.
Apply secure coding practices and factor in regulatory/compliance requirements when handling sensitive data, in line with iGaming regulatory obligations.
Contribute technical input into planning, estimation, and backlog refinement to keep delivery realistic and achievable.
Document technical learnings, AI solution rationale, and prompt strategies to grow the team's shared knowledge base.
Build understanding of the product domain, business context, and system architecture to inform sound technical decisions.
What You'll Bring
Education: Bachelor's degree in computer science
Experience: 2–4 years of progressive experience in software development
Skills & Knowledge:
Strong proficiency in front-end languages and frameworks (e.g. JavaScript/TypeScript, HTML5, CSS3, and a modern framework such as React, Vue, or Angular), with solid version control (Git) practices
Intermediate-level experience in debugging, unit testing, integration testing, and code review
Working knowledge of CI/CD pipelines, RESTful APIs, and integrating front-end applications with back-end services
Understanding of responsive design, cross-browser compatibility, web accessibility standards, and UI performance optimisation
Growing capability with AI-assisted development tools, technical design, and agile/scrum practices
Developing understanding of secure coding practices, performance analysis, and the software development life cycle
Exposure to regulatory/compliance considerations and incident response in a regulated environment
A collaborative mindset, with a genuine interest in mentoring and learning from peers
Why Join Derivco?
You'll be part of a team that values technical curiosity, ownership, and a "safe-to-disagree" culture — where peer code review and collaborative problem-solving are core to how we work. You'll play a direct role in shaping the user experience and interfaces that underpin operator partnerships across Derivco's regulated iGaming platforms, all while growing your skills in modern front-end and AI-augmented engineering practices.
