Job Description

Grow with us, introduce us to new ideas and develop products that maximise the thrill of sports for our customers. Every day, you’ll work in a highly collaborative and agile environment with cross-functional team members to develop products and create technical solutions that push us forward.

Your playing field:

• We're looking for a team player who can help us reach the top of our game. Just like in football, collaboration is key. You'll be working closely with our Product Managers to define the "playbook" — requirements and acceptance criteria — ensuring we always move the ball forward.
• You'll lead the charge in writing code and reviews, making sure we’re always on target.
• Help your fellow developers troubleshoot and debug, keeping our product safe from bugs like a world-class defender!
• You'll build and maintain automated tests in JavaScript, ensuring our "team" stays agile and adaptable.
• We’re focused on making our product smarter, simpler, and safer. You'll test our REST interfaces and APIs like a striker looking for the perfect shot.
• Perform peer reviews to ensure we always maintain the highest code quality standards.
• Make sure the CI pipeline runs smoothly and consistently, like a well-coordinated team playing with no offside flags!
• You’ll deliver improvements to our testing framework, focusing on speed, reliability, and ease of use — like optimizing the training drills to keep our squad at the top of their game!

Qualifications

Which skills should you bring to the pitch:

• Education. You’ve trained hard and earned your Bachelor’s or Master’s Degree in Computer Science or a similar field — ready to play at the highest level.
• Strong JavaScript Skills. With 1+ years of professional experience in JavaScript, you handle the ball with confidence, consistently making the right moves.
• Clean Code. You know that clean code is like a good game plan—clear, efficient, and designed to win. Writing and reading clean code is second nature to you.
• Test Management. You’ve got experience managing tests, just like a captain organizing their team on the field, ensuring test cases are well-written and effective.
• Testing Strategy. You understand the test pyramid principles, knowing how to balance different testing strategies, like a coach setting up a winning formation.
• Automation. You’ve worked with UI automation tools like CodeceptJS or Cypress before and feel right at home reading existing code and contributing to test suites
• Attention to Detail. You’re like a top defender who spots every potential gap in the line. Not only do you catch current issues, but you predict future challenges based on technical specs.
• Fluent in English. Communication is key, and you’re fluent in English, ready to keep the team aligned.
