Role Description

You are a seasoned software developer with a passion for website development and building integrations. You have a solid understanding of front-end development (HTML, CSS/SCSS, JavaScript), software integrations, and delivering custom, branded solutions to meet client needs. You have a sharp eye for design detail and take pride in pixel-perfect execution. You thrive in a collaborative environment, demonstrate exceptional problem-solving skills, and excel in managing multiple projects simultaneously while maintaining a client-first mindset.

A Professional Services Software Developer is a client-facing technical expert who designs, develops, and delivers custom solutions that extend and enhance our clients’ use of Swoogo. This includes highly branded event websites, third-party integrations, data transformation, and custom functionality.

• Work directly with clients and internal teams to translate business requirements into scalable, maintainable technical solutions.
• Advise on feasibility and approach, estimate development effort, identify technical risks and dependencies, and own solutions through development, testing, deployment, and handover.
• Develop and implement responsive, accessible front-end solutions using HTML, CSS/SCSS, and JavaScript in a SaaS, digital agency, or similar environment.
• Build and customize branded client websites on the Swoogo platform, with close attention to detail, brand consistency, and polish.

• Design, build, and maintain software integrations using REST APIs, webhooks, and middleware to ensure seamless data flow between Swoogo and third-party systems (CRM, payment, SSO, marketing automation, and more).
• Read and work directly from API documentation to scope, architect, and troubleshoot integrations across a variety of platforms and auth schemes (OAuth, API keys, tokens).
• Collaborate with internal teams and clients to customize software functionality, map data models between systems, and resolve technical challenges.
• Write clean, maintainable code and create clear technical documentation for websites, integrations, and delivered solutions.
• Use Git and version control best practices to manage codebases.
• Test and debug solutions, including front-end builds, API calls, and webhook events—to ensure functionality aligns with client requirements and meets a high bar for quality and attention to detail.
• Work closely with clients to gather requirements, clarify objectives, and develop project and technical specifications.
• Assess feasibility, identify dependencies/risks, and provide effort estimates before work begins.
• Translate client requirements into clearly defined technical solutions, including assessing feasibility, estimated effort, and identifying risks and dependencies.
• Serve as a technical advisor during client calls and meetings, ensuring clear communication of complex concepts.
• Provide training and guidance to clients on the use of custom-developed websites and integrations.
• Manage multiple client projects simultaneously, ensuring deliverables are on time and meet quality standards.
• Communicate progress, risks, and dependencies to both internal stakeholders and clients.
• Identify opportunities for improving workflows through automation, AI tools, or software customization, using AI to work more efficiently without sacrificing quality or attention to detail.

Qualifications

• 5+ years of experience in web development with a strong knowledge base of front-end technologies (JavaScript, HTML, CSS, SCSS).
• Proven track record of owning development and delivery for branded websites and software/integration projects.
• Proficiency with at least one modern JavaScript framework or language (Vue.js, React, or TypeScript).
• Experience building strong relationships with clients and internal stakeholders to better understand goals, envision solutions, and define requirements.
• Expert understanding of core web development principles, including responsive design, accessibility (WCAG), and performance best practices.
