Fullstack Engineer II (Frontend-Leaning) - Supply Chain Tooling
Victoria, London
Hybrid - 3 days in the office, 2 days remote

As Zapp enters its next stage of growth, we seek a Frontend-leaning Fullstack Engineer with an appetite for ambiguity, a willingness to roll up their sleeves and the leadership skills to guide small teams towards high-quality deliverables.

The Supply Chain team is the newest engineering team at Zapp. There’s little legacy code to deal with and plenty of opportunity to execute your vision without being burdened by what’s been built so far. In the first three months, you’ll work on automating key business processes and building reliable data management systems that can collect, store and publish critical supplier data to internal and external systems. Once the core infrastructure is in place, your responsibilities will shift towards surfacing key data to decision-makers quickly and accurately so that the Supply Chain team can rapidly identify, or even predict bottlenecks and resolve them before our customers are impacted. Think of building a command-and-control suite for our Supply Chain team. If you’re the kind of person who hears the word ‘Excel’ and thinks there has to be a better way to do that, this job is for you.

As a frontend engineer, you’ll be working with a React app that’s built using NextJS/Jest/Typescript/NodeJS. Experience with Tailwind, Circle CI, GCP, Firebase, NestJS, React-Query is preferred but not required.
