- Own the full development lifecycle, from ideation and prototyping through deployment and iteration.
- Develop a deep understanding of the culture and technical needs of focus communities to inform content, feature sets, and engagement strategies.
- Collaborate closely with cross-functional teams to convert strategic growth goals and community feedback into clear technical requirements and deliverables.
- Conduct data analysis and research on application performance and usage metrics to guide feature prioritisation and optimisation.
Technical Requirements
- 2+ years of hands-on experience in full-stack web development using JavaScript/TypeScript, HTML, and CSS.
- Demonstrable expertise with modern client-side frameworks, particularly React.
- Experience building and deploying server-side applications using Node.js, preferably with frameworks such as Express or Koa.
- Strong understanding of API integration, data modelling, and client/server architecture patterns.
- Experience managing application state and data using tools such as Redis for caching or storage.
- Familiarity with the Devvit Developer Platform and its SDKs (@devvit/client, @devvit/server) is highly desirable.
General Requirements
- Fluent in English, with a deep understanding of UK culture and language nuances.
- Strong project management skills, with the ability to manage multiple development and community launch cycles simultaneously.
- Experience designing and executing community activations and interactive platform experiences.
- Strong familiarity with large-scale online discussion platforms and user expectations.
- Ability to quickly understand and adapt to diverse topics and content verticals.
- Availability to dedicate 20–40 hours per week to community growth initiatives.
What We Offer
