Job Description

About us

At Jigsaw, we’re on a mission to transform the way professional services and financial institutions work. We do this by helping our clients organise, visualise and use their data (think Figma or Canvas but for the ‘City’). Our clients include the world’s biggest consultancies, leading financial institutions and top law firms.

Jigsaw was founded by two seasoned entrepreneurs, Stephen and Travis. This is their second venture together; their first was acquired by a US private equity firm and went on to become a billion-dollar company and a household name in professional service firms across the world. Jigsaw is now on a growth trajectory few Series A companies achieve - putting us in the top 10% of SaaS companies globally. Today we proudly serve thousands of users from over a hundred businesses worldwide, who love our products and use them everyday.

But we’re only getting started! We have ambitious goals and we’re looking for talented people to help us achieve them.

Why join us?

We're not about the corporate grind; instead, we thrive on creativity, enthusiasm, and a touch of humour to make magic happen.

We hire people with high ownership and a bias for action. Then we trust and empower them to do their best work.

The role

We're looking for senior-level frontend developers to join our dynamic team. Engage in a role which leads to exceptional user experiences, collaborate closely with our design, product and test teams and work in empowered trusted product teams which set their own processes, technology stacks and sub-cultures.

Our user demographic is eagle-eyed and holds high standards, embodying the principle that time is money. They truly value Jigsaw as a clever product that anticipates and accelerates their workflows - whilst maintaining a constant focus on the quality of the final output. This appreciation for our offerings has fostered significant product evangelism, viral growth and resulted in an extraordinary and market leading Net Promoter Score.

Your efforts will be crucial in our fast-paced, scaling environment and to our growth. As we extend our customer base across various geographies and industry verticals, we will encounter new challenges and the need for innovative features. This opportunity is more than just writing elegant code; it's a chance to join a vibrant, intense team at the forefront of technological innovation for a sector that’s been seriously underserved so far.

You’ll get to...

  • Take our web apps to the next level with your killer skills in Vue.js (preferred), React.js, or Angular, as well as TypeScript and Tailwind CSS. We’re experimenting meaningfully in applications of AI for making our user experiences even more efficient, so an interest in that area wouldn’t go amiss.
  • Team up with our product team to create websites that are not just functional but are downright gorgeous.
  • Push our applications to run smoother, faster, and scale bigger than ever before.
  • Turn those visually impressive designs into living, breathing digital experiences that users love.
  • Connect the dots between RESTful APIs and backend services for a seamless user journey.
  • Lead the way with code that’s both clean and sustainable, raising the bar for what good coding looks like.
  • Dive into code reviews that aren’t just about catching bugs, but about learning, sharing, and making us all better developers.
  • Always be on the lookout for new tech trends and innovations to bring into our projects.
  • Mentor more junior members of the team to help them develop their software engineering skills and confidence.

You’ll thrive in this role if...

  • You're the go-to person when it comes to Vue.js (preferred), React.js, or Angular.
  • You're a TypeScript guru and a JavaScript (ES6+) maestro.
  • You've got a creative edge with Tailwind CSS.
  • You use Vuex or the Composition API to craft engaging, interactive web experiences.
  • You know your way around blending front and backend with RESTful APIs.
  • You are proficient with Git, keeping projects flowing smoothly.
  • You have experience with visualisation technologies like syncfusion, D3js, GoJS, JointJS, mxGraph or Cytoscape.js, to give our data presentations that extra punch.
  • You have excellent problem-solving skills, and you are detail-oriented.

It would be a plus if...

  • You're aware of the latest testing frameworks like Playwright, to make sure our applications run flawlessly.
  • You are familiar with web performance optimisation, to ensure our applications are as fast as they are functional.
  • You understand CSS frameworks and preprocessors (SASS, LESS), to take our styling capabilities to new heights and enrich our design aesthetic.
