Company Description


We help holidaymakers love their journeys

We’re the first tech platform for flight-free holidays. We help people experience the joy of journeying through lesser-known parts of the UK and Europe by train, boat and bus, and are proud to be a certified B Corporation. Founded in March 2020, we’ve raised £2.3M in government grant funding & from angel investors and regularly appear in mainstream press from the Times to the Guardian. We have 97% five-star reviews, are growing 7x year on year, and have no plans to slow down until flight-free travel is mainstream. Join us to get our seamless and personal flight-free travel to a wider audience. Help to blaze a trail in sustainable, authentic and conscious travel!


Job Description


We’re looking for a Front End Developer to join our team, building the world’s first platform for flight-free holidays.

As a Graduate Front End Developer, you will help us to deliver key functionality with a great user experience. You will collaborate closely with our back end team to deliver key features to our customers. We’re a small, fast-moving and fast-growing company, so there’s huge potential for growth in this role and beyond. Your code will make a difference to our colleagues and customers daily: your impact will be direct and visible. You’ll report directly to our CTO, Rich Levy.


Qualifications


Responsibilities

  • Develop and extend the front end and user experience for our flight-free holidays, as well as our mobile-first holiday companion experience
  • Develop code to interface with our dynamic packaging technology
  • Create internal tools and APIs to support our teams
  • Work with our growth team to develop and A/B test different iterations of the UI/UX
  • Participate in the product development process from start to finish, scoping projects, measuring their success and iterating based on user feedback

What we’re looking for

  • Experience writing high quality React code
  • Great front end skills including mobile-first development with an ability to convert designed visuals into high performance, responsive components
  • Experience calling JSON/REST APIs and working with authentication/authorisation systems
  • Experience surfacing new features and functionality across cross-functional teams
  • An ability to balance speed of iteration and quality of code: we need to build fast without compromising on reliability and usability but sometimes done is better than perfect
  • Great communication skills: you can convert business requirements to code and explain complex technical concepts to the business

What would be great (but isn’t required)

  • Experience of Next.js, Typescript and/or Storybook
  • Experience of DevOps and agile processes
  • Experience of working in a startup or fast paced environment
  • An interest in accessibility

Additional Information


What we offer

  • £30-40k (depending on experience), stock options and 25 days holiday plus public holidays
  • High specification laptop & tools, second screen, docking station and accessories
  • Remote (work from anywhere) and flexible working with ~2 days/month in London
  • Exposure to all parts of the business
  • Annual ‘Byway Away’ days
  • Support and coaching from experienced members of the team

Interested?

We’re committed to building a diverse culture and are eager to receive applications from all backgrounds. All applicants will receive consideration for employment without discrimination.

Please apply with your CV and a short covering letter. We're much more interested in your covering letter than your CV.
