[Hiring] Software Engineer - Lifecycle Customer @Utility Warehouse

Role Description

We are looking for a frontend-focused Software Engineer who thrives on autonomy and enjoys solving complex Customer problems. You should be a collaborative professional who values pragmatism and low-ego teamwork. Success in this role requires a desire to grow your skills and learn from the senior engineers around you.

We work in small, fully autonomous teams that have real ownership of their products. We use the best tool for the job and constantly look for better.

You will join the Lifecycle team, the home of multi-service sales at Utility Warehouse. Alongside the Acquisition team, we manage new Customer acquisition through our Partner network and build the tools that power in-life cross-selling and bundling. We are currently in an exciting period of growth and innovation, building new digital capabilities to improve the experience for everyone involved.

In this role, you will help build seamless digital experiences across the tools and journeys that power our Customer base. Your work will have a tangible impact as you solve real problems at scale.

• Build and ship Customer-facing and Partner-facing features across web (React/TypeScript) and mobile (React Native), taking ownership of your work from design through to production.
• Translate UX designs and wireframes into clean, maintainable, and reusable React components that work seamlessly across devices and platforms.
• Contribute to team goals by delivering well-scoped work and participating in prioritisation discussions.
• Write well-tested, well-documented code and actively participate in code reviews to uphold quality standards across the team.
• Design and implement reliable technical solutions while making sound decisions based on your experience.
• Support junior engineers through pairing and code reviews, sharing knowledge and helping raise the bar for frontend practice across the squad.
• Engage with UW's wider frontend community, learning from and contributing to shared standards across teams.

• Comfort working in agile, iterative environments to deliver continuous improvements.
