At Codeweavers, we're powering the future of automotive commerce. Our SaaS platform connects car buyers, retailers, lenders, and manufacturers through thousands of digital solutions used across the UK and increasingly, around the world.

We're a team of curious problem-solvers and lifelong learners who believe that engineering excellence comes from craft, not complexity. Whether it's refining finance calculations, integrating with external platforms, or streamlining onboarding workflows, our developers are at the heart of making car buying easier for everyone.

This isn't a job where you'll just be handed a spec and a design. You'll collaborate closely with Product Owners, Users, Designers, Customers, and other Engineers to deeply understand business problems, user scenarios and use these learnings to shape the right solutions.

We're currently growing across several key product areas:

• Finance Calculations & Lender Integrations - Building robust finance calculation engines and secure, compliant integrations with major UK and European lenders
• Retailer E-Commerce Tools - Delivering fast, reliable tools for retailers to manage online vehicle sales, including quoting and checkout experiences
• Client Onboarding & Automation - Creating back-office systems that simplify onboarding and reduce operational workload across the platform

If you've worked in fintech, ecommerce, UX engineering, or any domain where elegant and performant user journeys are key, then you will feel right at home here.

• Collaborating with customers, designers & product owners to understand User and Business needs
• Creating clean, performant, and maintainable Web Applications in Angular along with iterating on a large robust existing platform
• Designing elegant user journeys with strong UX at the forefront
• Making smart, incremental changes, deployed often and safely using CI/CD pipelines
• Helping define and evolve our engineering standards and architectural direction

We'd love you to have some of the following:

• Proficiency in HTML and CSS preprocessors (e.g., SCSS, SASS, LESS)
• Understanding of functional, object-oriented, and component-based programming structures.
• Strong experience with Angular, TypeScript, and RXJS or transferrable experience from other modern frontend frameworks
• Bonus points if you have experience working in a federated modular environment, with equivalent tooling (eg. Nx)
• Even more bonus points if you have experience with modern state management patterns (eg. NgRx, NgXs)
• Excellent problem-solving skills, with a practical approach to balancing technical elegance and delivery goals
• An interest in test automation, CI/CD, and continuous delivery practices (e.g. Github Actions, Playwright, Cypress)
• Familiarity with UX Engineering and UX Design practices
• Ability to communicate well within a team and work as part of a larger engineering group as well as being an efficient self-starter

Additional benefits include:

• Small, multi-disciplinary squads aligned to product areas
• A culture of rapid feedback, continuous deployment, and shared learning
• Dedicated "Kaizen" time every week to focus on self-improvement
• Collaborative code reviews and regular architecture discussions
• A culture where healthy challenge is welcomed, and assumptions get tested

Hybrid working: mostly remote with occasional in-office visits

23 days holiday + bank holidays + birthday off + wellness day + volunteering day

Extra holiday for each year of service

Access to learning resources (Pluralsight, books, conferences)

Dedicated weekly learning time

Regular social events including our legendary sports day and Christmas party

Transparent, respectful culture where engineers shape the direction of their work

• Want to make meaningful contributions, not just write code
• Ask questions, seek feedback, and care about the 'why' behind the work
• Enjoy digging into complex problems and making them simpler
• Are comfortable working collaboratively in a transparent, respectful environment
