Senior Front End Developer – Web And Mobile

All About Us At Ironwood Digital , we’re not your average estate agency. We’re flipping the script on the property game using smart tech, fresh ideas, and a serious focus on people to make buying and selling homes smoother, faster, and actually enjoyable. We’re all about keeping things real. Real support. Real flexibility. Real opportunities. We know success doesn’t come from standing still and neither do we. If you're hungry to grow, driven to succeed, and ready to be rewarded for it, this could be the start of something big. We’re big fans of promoting from within, so your first role here might just be the first step in a much bigger journey. What Is A Senior Front-End Developer? You'll be a senior hands-on engineer on our two core front-end platforms: a multi-app web monorepo built on Next.js and a cross-platform mobile client built on React Native. The role spans hands-on delivery, contributing to architecture and patterns alongside the lead, and the tooling and AI workflows the team relies on day to day. You'll deliver complex features end-to-end and help raise the quality, performance, and release process across both stacks. This is an individual contributor role with broad scope. You'll work across product, design, content, and platform teams, and you'll be expected to contribute through strong code, thoughtful code review, written design, and pragmatic technical judgement. When it comes to culture - we really try to build cohesive, high performing teams that pull together. Each squad feels a real sense of ownership over their work. Building an environment based on trust and honesty is really important to us. As a Senior UI Engineer, your time will be split between hands-on delivery across web and mobile, contributing to our front-end architecture, and supporting the engineers who specialise in one stack or the other. You'll review code across both repos, contribute to the design system that serves marketing and product surfaces, and weigh in on the decisions that shape day-to-day work: app vs. shared lib, server vs. client, fetch vs. cache, OTA vs. binary release. As we work in multidisciplinary squads, you'll also support QA, Product, and Platform colleagues to make sure we hit our sprint goals. Your new development will be done across a multi-app Nx monorepo (Next.js App Router, TypeScript strict mode, TanStack Query, Tailwind, Radix, headless CMS) and a cross-platform React Native client on the Expo/EAS toolchain. You'll work on module boundaries, shared libraries, and the dependency graph; wire up new third-party integrations end-to-end (SDK, secrets, config, typed wrapper, rollout); and contribute to CI/CD across both repos including affected-based pipelines, multi-app deploys, and mobile release channels. Outside of squad work you will be part of the UI Chapter. We hold Chapter meetings to talk about tech and ways of working. We work democratically to evolve our stack and make constant improvements.
