Developer – AI-Accelerated Engineering

As a Developer you will ship production-grade web applications, integrations and geospatial tooling for our clients across Cyber Risk, AI and Technology consulting. You will leverage AI coding assistants such as Claude Code, GitHub Copilot / Codex and Lovable to move faster without sacrificing quality, security or maintainability. You will work across the stack — from React frontends and serverless backends to Postgres databases and GIS pipelines — in close collaboration with our consulting and research teams.

Responsibilities

• Design, build and maintain full-stack web applications using Next.js, React and modern TypeScript tooling.
• Leverage AI coding assistants (Claude Code, Codex, Lovable) to accelerate development, testing and documentation.
• Architect and query PostgreSQL databases, including PostGIS extensions for geospatial workloads.
• Integrate backend platforms such as Supabase, AWS Amplify and Firebase into client solutions.
• Develop and maintain CMS-driven experiences, including Payload CMS configurations and custom content models.
• Build, visualise and analyse GIS datasets using QGIS, ArcGIS and open-source geospatial libraries.
• Follow secure coding practices, code review and version control workflows on every deliverable.

Requirements

• Proven experience building web applications with Next.js, React and TypeScript.
• Hands-on experience with AI coding assistants such as Claude Code, GitHub Copilot / Codex or Lovable.
• Strong working knowledge of PostgreSQL, including schema design, indexing and performance basics.
• Experience with Supabase, AWS Amplify or Firebase for authentication, storage and serverless backends.
• Familiarity with headless CMS platforms, ideally Payload CMS or equivalent.
• Comfortable with GIS concepts and tools such as PostGIS, QGIS or ArcGIS.
• Experience deploying to or integrating with edge platforms such as Cloudflare Workers, Pages or R2.
• Solid understanding of RESTful and GraphQL APIs, Git workflows and CI/CD basics.
• Fluent written and spoken English.

Nice to Have

• Knowledge of telecommunications network design, especially FTTH planning and fibre topology.
• Experience with geospatial data pipelines, tiling services or web mapping libraries.
• Exposure to cloud infrastructure on AWS, including Amplify, Lambda and S3.
• Experience building cross-platform native mobile apps with Expo (React Native).
• Familiarity with secure software development, OWASP principles and regulated client environments.
• Previous consulting or client-facing delivery experience.
